First Vacation Rental Data and Revenue Management Conference to be held in Atlanta, August 6-7

With the creation of comparative data and pricing tools, the science of revenue management for the vacation rental industry is quickly evolving and has become a hot-button topic for VRMs in 2019. As a result, VRM Intel is bringing together revenue management experts, vacation rental professionals, and technology providers for a two-day educational conference designed to identify best practices and professionalize the industry’s understanding of comparative data and revenue management strategies. 

VRM Intel’s Data and Revenue Management Conference will be held August 6-7 at the Atlanta Airport Marriott, and is being supported by leading sponsors, Key Data, AirDNA, Rented.com, PriceLabs, C2G Advisors, Streamline, Beyond Pricing, RedAwning, and LSI. 

“While vacation rental professionals are extremely interested in implementing revenue management strategies, there is little information or education offered in the marketplace specific to short-term rentals; and we are finding that hotel strategies do not necessarily apply to leisure-oriented vacation rentals,” said Amy Hinote, founder of VRM Intel. “There are new technology, data, and pricing tools available and new terms, KPIs, theories, and practices emerging. With this conference, we hope to bring the smartest people in this space together to help VRMs make sense of this new playing field.”
