Property-level market segments

Market segments allow you to categorize and track different business sources within your property's revenue strategy. By creating custom segments that reflect your unique business mix, you gain insights into which market segments drive the most production and revenue.

Once created, you can assign these segments to rate codes for comprehensive tracking and commercial strategy analysis.

πŸ“ŒNote: Market segments can also be created at chain level for multi-property groups and be used together.


Market segment types

Major market segments: Primary business categories that can operate independently or contain multiple sub-segments. These serve as the main organizational structure for your market reporting.

Minor market segments: Detailed sub-categories that exist under Major Market Segments, allowing granular tracking within broader business categories. These codes can integrate to your PMS, if supported, on associated reservations.
