Plano de execução

1. Rebuild pricing and revenue management around seasonal Curitiba demand and target occupancy to close the gap to break-even
2. Create a differentiation strategy (theme rooms, local experiences, breakfast quality, and packages) to reduce direct price competition
3. Launch local SEO and partnerships with Curitiba tour operators, universities, and corporate travel channels to stabilize bookings
4. Tighten operating cost controls (labor scheduling, utilities, supplier renegotiation) to move monthly profit from negative to consistently positive
5. Set measurable funnel KPIs (website conversion, direct booking rate, RevPAR proxy, booking lead times) and run monthly offers to smooth occupancy lows
6. Pilot one revenue add-on stream immediately (airport pickup, guided tours, romantic packages) and scale only what hits margin targets
