“Beyond Was the Clear Standout” — Multi-Market Operator Sees 25% Occupancy and ADR Growth with Beyond
As a seasoned property manager overseeing a diverse, multi-market portfolio of high-value, large-unit short-term rentals, Dean Batogowski from Book A Memory knew that revenue optimization couldn’t be left to guesswork.
With 13 properties spread across six different markets—from Palm Springs to Indianapolis—managing pricing manually had become increasingly inefficient. The team needed a dynamic solution that could adapt to shifting market conditions while still offering hands-on control when needed.
“With multiple large properties across different markets, we needed a partner who really understood how to go to market with the right price—and be able to pivot quickly when needed,”
The Challenge
Before partnering with Beyond, Dean tested several pricing tools, but found limitations in both pricing models and functionality. Their high-revenue properties—some earning over $300,000 annually—demanded a revenue management solution that offered deeper insights, personalized support, and flexibility.
