Everything you need to know about my commission-only model.
I establish a 365-day baseline using your historical booking data before we start. This baseline is your average monthly revenue — the amount you would have earned without our services.
Each month, I compare your actual revenue to this baseline. I invoice 20% of the amount above the baseline only. If you earn exactly your baseline (or less), you owe me nothing for that month.
Example:
No. There are no setup fees, no monthly retainers, no audit fees, and no cancellation fees. The only cost to you is the 20% commission on incremental revenue.
I cover the cost of:
If your revenue does not exceed the baseline in a given month, my invoice for that month is EUR 0. This is not a promotional offer — it is the permanent structure of the agreement.
If your revenue remains flat for three consecutive months, I will conduct a review call to diagnose the issue. In rare cases where market conditions or property-specific factors prevent uplift, we may mutually agree to terminate the engagement. You keep all listing copy and audit recommendations regardless.
I use your last 365 days of booking data prior to our engagement. I calculate the average monthly revenue across the year, adjusting for any obvious anomalies (e.g., a month where you blocked the calendar for personal use).
The baseline is adjusted for annual inflation for the duration of the engagement.
I currently support Airbnb, VRBO, Booking.com, and direct booking websites (via integrated channel managers). If you use a channel manager like Hostaway, Guesty, or Lodgify, I can integrate directly with that system.
If your platform is not listed, contact me — I may still be able to work with your data via iCal connections or API access.
Most clients see measurable results within 14 days of dynamic pricing going live, but the real gains build over the first year as I stimulate long-lead demand — locking in bookings 180 days out and filling your low season before it even starts.
Listing optimization and photography changes usually show impact within 7–10 days (as platform search indexes update). Guest audit recommendations may take 30–60 days to reflect in review scores.
For dynamic pricing, I need access to your booking calendar and pricing data. This can usually be handled with an API or iCal connection. For listing optimization, I need admin or co-host access to edit titles, descriptions, and photos.
I never access your payment information, guest messages, or personal account settings. All access is granted through the platform's native co-host or team-member features. I never ask for your password; in the rare case a platform technically requires it, you can share a temporary password and change it back as soon as the listing is updated.
The audit is a 12-point assessment covering:
Every recommendation includes an estimated cost and expected impact on review score or booking conversion.
There is no long-term contract. The agreement is month-to-month. Either party can terminate with 30 days' written notice.
I do ask for a minimum 90-day commitment at the start. This gives me enough data to optimize effectively and gives you enough time to evaluate results. After 90 days, you are free to cancel anytime.
You keep everything:
Dynamic pricing will cease on the cancellation date. You can revert to your previous pricing strategy or continue manually using the pricing insights I provided during the engagement.
My standard rate is 20% of incremental revenue. For properties with 5+ units or portfolios generating EUR 40,000+/month in baseline revenue, I may offer a volume-adjusted rate. Contact me to discuss your specific situation.
I do not offer lower rates in exchange for upfront payments. The model is designed to be purely performance-based.
I treat your booking data as confidential. I do not sell, share, or aggregate your individual property data with third parties. My pricing infrastructure runs on encrypted servers. Any contractor I work with must sign an NDA.
I only use your data to optimize your property. I do not use it to compete with you, advise your competitors, or build market reports that identify your property.

No. The service operates entirely behind the scenes. Guests see your listing, your rates, and your communications exactly as before. There is no branding, watermark, or disclosure requirement.
