One little Hurray for all the RM's out there....you braved it....and some are still in it 😎😮

  1. "Revenue management is like gardening—plant the right seeds, wait patiently, and hope the weather doesn’t ruin everything."
  2. "Revenue management is like driving in rush hour—lots of stops, starts, and the occasional wrong turn."
  3. "Revenue management is like playing poker—you’re making the best decision with the cards you’ve been dealt. And sometimes like at budget you just bluff"
  4. "Revenue management is like painting—sometimes it’s a masterpiece, and sometimes it’s abstract, and no one gets it - well most of the time."
  5. "Revenue management is like going to the gym—you don’t always see results immediately, but you keep pushing anyway. Sometimes forever."
  6. "Revenue management is like playing darts—you aim for the bullseye, but sometimes you hit the wall."
  7. "Revenue management is like a game of whack-a-mole. Just when you think you’ve nailed one rate, another issue pops up."
  8. "Revenue management is like cooking without a recipe. You mix what you have and hope it doesn't turn to shits."
  9. "Revenue management is like babysitting. You try to keep things calm, but chaos can break out at any moment. Those GM's....I tell you"
  10. "Revenue management is like fishing. Sometimes you catch a big one, sometimes you’re just sitting there staring at the water."

Now back to work.

Love,

Fabi

It is estimated that 80+% of hotels do not use sophisticated revenue tools. Not sure about you but I think that’s a problem. It’s time we tried a different approach. We believe everyone deserves the chance to a fair fight. Regardless if they have 20 rooms or 200, branded or independent, primary or secondary location, have dedicated revenue managers or are a one man show. We believe that hiding behind the “users” in-ability is not good enough.
