Summary

Automation is powerful — but it’s not a replacement for strategy. In this episode of RevLabs Insider on RevLabs by PriceLabs , host Kyle Driskell sits down with Alessandro Poncini (Manager, Solutions Consultant at PriceLabs) to break down one of the most important questions in modern revenue management: 👉 How much should you automate — and how much should you control? Drawing from experience across OTAs, PMS platforms, and revenue management tools, Alessandro shares how top-performing operators balance automation with hands-on strategy. 🔑 What you’ll learn: Why dynamic pricing is not “plug-and-play” When to trust automation — and when to intervene Why adding more features doesn’t always improve performance How high-performing teams segment their portfolios The role of market data vs intuition in pricing 🎯 If you manage multiple listings or lead a revenue team, this episode gives you a practical framework for improving performance without overcomplicating your setup.
