Problem Statement:
- Hosts have no way to manually mark specific dates to temporarily increase prices
- When local events happen in the area, demand increases but hosts can't easily adjust pricing for those dates
- This results in missed revenue opportunities during high-demand periods
Current Workaround:
- Hosts must manually update prices date-by-date through the calendar
- This is time-consuming and easy to miss, especially for multiple events throughout the year
Impact:
- Lost revenue from not pricing during high-demand event dates
- Significant time spent manually adjusting prices across multiple dates
- Inconsistent pricing during peak demand periods
Proposed Solution:
- Add the ability to create a list of events with their start and end dates, along with the event name
- Display these events on the calendar so hosts can visually see which dates are marked
- Allow hosts to upload or enter date ranges in a console to mark multiple dates at once, rather than adding them one by one
- Apply a price increase to all marked dates automatically
Unlock:
- Hosts can easily capture higher revenue during local events
- Time saved by entering event names and date ranges instead of manually adjusting each date
- Visual calendar display makes it easy to see which dates have price adjustments applied
- Better control over pricing during predictable high-demand periods
