How Zenstay Boosted Revenue While Doubling Its Portfolio With PriceLabs

REVENUE MANAGEMENT

Managing 148 rooms across 25 boutique properties in geographically diverse markets — from California's coast to Lake Tahoe — requires a revenue management platform that scales without scaling headcount. For Tommy Wong, who joined Zenstay from a technical support background with no prior hospitality experience, it was an exciting challenge!

Why it matters: Zenstay's story shows how a lean, tech-forward operator can grow peak-period revenue while doubling portfolio size — proving that disciplined dynamic pricing scales meaningfully when paired with the right tooling.

Tommy scaled revenue management using PriceLabs as both a pricing tool and a learning platform — onboarded by his account manager and supported by transparent, explainable pricing logic.

Top 3 Core Objectives: Zenstay needed to build a scalable revenue management practice from scratch — covering 25 boutique properties across distinct markets, with a portfolio set to double in the coming years. The objectives centered on operational scale, market visibility, and equipping a new revenue manager with the tooling to succeed.

Scale revenue across inventory: Scale revenue management across a fast-growing, multi-market inventory without proportionally scaling resources.
Ramp up swiftly: Equip a non-hospitality operator with transparent, explainable pricing tools to ramp up quickly on revenue management.
Set confident prices: Set confident base prices for newly launched properties and monitor their pacing as they ramp.
