What if the biggest revenue mistake most STR operators make isn’t their pricing tool… but the lack of a daily and weekly pricing routine?

In this episode of Get Paid For Your Pad, Jasper Ribbers breaks down the real-world revenue management cadence professional STR operators follow to stay ahead of their market. Instead of talking theory, Jasper walks through what actually happens inside a daily pricing review, how to read bookings as data, and why consistent routines matter more than any single pricing rule.

Whether you manage 10 listings or 100+, this episode gives you a clear, practical framework for structuring your revenue management time. Jasper explains why most hosts underperform not because they lack tools, but because they don’t know what to look at, when to look at it, or how to interpret booking behavior once it shows up.

You will discover:

• Why revenue management must be scheduled, not reactive

• How reviewing every booking reveals pricing and demand signals

• Why early bookings can indicate underpricing or upcoming events

• How to spot mistakes in minimum stays and pricing settings

• What last-minute inventory tells you about demand and visibility

• Why small daily price changes can increase exposure on OTAs

• How weekends require different attention than weekdays

• Why experience matters more than formulas in pricing decisions

Jasper also explains how to review pacing on a weekly basis using Market Penetration Index (MPI), why you shouldn’t overcorrect pricing too quickly, and how small adjustments compound into meaningful revenue gains over time. He shares examples of bookings that reveal hidden demand, misconfigured rules, and missed opportunities that most operators never notice.
