REVENUE MANAGEMENT TRAINING

With over 7 years of training experience for large hotel chains, we believe transmission of knowledge and education of key staff in hotels is crucial, and it is intimately linked to our vision and belief that every hotel should have access to great revenue management. Irrespective of how good the tools and systems are, revenue management is performed by people and can only be executed well if the decision makers possess the right knowledge and competencies to do so.

Despite being a vital part of a successful hotel operation, we feel that the practise of revenue management is still not taught enough in universities, internal company training, apprenticeships or in the job itself. Therefore we have created various training sessions and seminars which will ensure that you and your staff make better revenue decisions moving forward.

Our training sessions comprise every aspect of revenue management that we would implement for our clients. We want to create an environment where your employees understand revenue management as we believe this is an important step in creating a revenue culture within your company.

Anyone can book our revenue management training! Whether you are an independent hotel, a large corporation, or even a university, you have found the right partner. Our training packages can be conducted in English or German and we will happily come to you to hold a training of your choice.
