100% Market Share Penetration is Not Good Enough
Hotels often brag that they are running 100% market share penetration. If a property is positioned well in the market in terms of product and rate, 100% market share is what you get for opening the front door and not chasing customers out the back door with poor service. Over and above 100% is the result of an effective sales effort. For example, a client said to me recently that the bad news was that one of his hotels was $50,000 down for the month over the previous year but the good news was they were running 117% market share and 125% Yield index. In markets that are declining it is still possible to run well above 100% Market Share so eliminate the excuse that declining market share is a function of a bad market.
