Today's Revenue Management thought:-
Staying in control…..
Throughout the years we have all built elaborate pricing matrix’s, with rates being linked to a “master” / Rack rate, together with a multitude of rate levels and codes.
In this day and age where we are seeing a shift to automated pricing tools, dynamic pricing models replacing static pricing, wholesalers working with indirect contracting through the likes of HyperGuest - is there still the need for these elaborate pricing matrix’s ?
I would argue yes - as this entails that you have an overview of your rate structure. That said, they probably do not need to be as elaborate as previously.
Any thoughts ?
Have a profitable week !
