For Hotel Management Companies
First Hour Group is not a hotel management company. We build the rate intelligence tools and train the certified revenue managers that management companies use across their portfolios. We build and train. You operate.
Work with usThe Model
When a hotel needs full management, that contract goes to a management company. First Hour does not compete for hotel management contracts. We never have and we never will.
What we do is build the tools and train the people that management companies run their revenue strategy with. NightDesk for rate intelligence. The Certified Revenue Manager credential for the people who use it. The textbook for the method behind both.
First Hour builds and trains. You operate. That is the model. It is explicit and it is permanent.
First Hour Group does not take hotel management contracts. We are a technology and training company. Full stop. Your client relationships are yours.
Your revenue managers can earn the Certified Revenue Manager credential through First Hour Academy. The credential, the textbook, and the NightDesk platform all come together.
NightDesk and The Daily Rate work across multiple properties. One certified revenue manager can run rate intelligence for a portfolio of independent hotels.
