The Weekly Revenue Meeting: Structure It Right or It's Just a Status Update

The weekly revenue meeting is the operational heartbeat of a well-run hotel's commercial function. Done well, it brings together the revenue manager, sales team, reservations, and general manager to review the forward position, discuss the decisions that need to be made, and align on actions before the window closes.
Done poorly, it's a retrospective where everyone discusses what happened last week without the data to explain why or the forward view to act on it. The structure of an effective revenue meeting follows a clear sequence: short-term performance vs.
forecast, forward pick-up by date and segment, key decision points in the next 30/60/90 days, and action ownership with clear accountability.
