Pricing is predominantly one-time/per-event, with the membership layer providing recurring revenue.

Distribution is direct-to-consumer through phone reservations and the company's own online booking platform (forms.omansion.com), supplemented by long-standing travel agent relationships, Booking.com editorial featuring, and partnerships with SpotHero (parking) and Reston Limousine (transportation). Marketing has been earned-media-led, anchored by Smithsonian.com's top-five historic venue ranking, Forbes' top-seven DC hotels, and Event MB's #1 meetings/events ranking, with active social presence across TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, Pinterest, and Twitter.
