#8 Dynamic pricing explained clearly: 5 tips on how to inform your guests

From the 2024/25 winter season, dynamic pricing will offer your ski school the opportunity to react flexibly to seasonal fluctuations in demand and optimally utilise your resources.

In our blog series, we have already discussed the benefits of Dynamic Pricing for your ski school. But how can you inform your guests transparently and understandably about this new pricing strategy? In this blog post, we provide tips for communicating with your guests.

Communicate Transparently

Dynamic pricing can initially seem confusing or unfair to guests if they don't understand the reasons and mechanisms behind it. We have compiled some proven tips on how you can effectively inform your customers:

1. Announce the New Pricing Structure in Advance

Inform your guests about seasonal price changes well in advance. Use newsletters, your website, or social media channels to keep them updated.

2. Explain the New System

Clearly and understandably explain how your dynamic pricing works. Use infographics or FAQs on your website to illustrate the price changes and their benefits for your guests.

3. Engage in Dialogue

Give your guests the opportunity to ask questions and provide feedback. This shows that you take their concerns seriously and helps increase the acceptance of dynamic pricing.

4. Communicate the Benefits

Emphasize that customers can benefit from lower prices by booking early. Show them how they can save money through flexible online bookings.

5. Provide Practical Examples

Use examples from the tourism industry, such as cable cars charging higher prices during peak season. Explain how this pricing responds to seasonal demand and availability.
