Revenue
Management
Revenue Management is the solution that predicts the consumer’s demand with the objective of maximizing the business’ profitability. It optimizes the inventories and e stablishes the prices with continuous adjustments based on the market. This means stopping selling today at a low price in order to sell at a higher price tomorrow. Or to sell at a low price when demand is low. Due to the benefit it generates and the market competition, it went from being a trend to being a necessity.
It is mainly applied in industries related to transportation, travel and tourism. It is also used in the marketing and sales departments to meet customer behavior.
The Challenge
Companies continuously face important decisions about what to sell, when to sell, to whom to sell and for how much. Through the design and implementation of revenue management models, we help our clients to answer these questions.
We implement it in order to increase revenues and create process models to understand the perception of product value for customers, accurately align it to the prices of products, placement and availability for each customer segment.
To achieve this we combined “data mining” and research of operations with the strategy, the understanding of the customer’s behavior and the association with the sales force supported on an organizational culture based on analysis.
