What is Revenue Management & Why It is Important For Your Business

Revenue management truly is both an art and a science. There is a lot involved and there is always more to learn. There is more to learn than most startups have time to think about, but lucky for you- I’m a real nerd when it comes to all of this.

But if you ask us, it’s the convergence of sales, marketing, pricing, & distribution in order to create a strategy for pricing optimization- getting you more results for less time and money.

Why do I say it’s a science?

There are a lot of analytics involved, looking at the numbers in your business, conversion rates, reviews, trends and more… It’s important to know these numbers and look at them head one. It’s meticulous and somewhat prescriptive.

BUT it’s also an art...there is an expertise that comes from years of experience. It's a gut intuition and finesse that makes it an art. There isn’t ever one right or wrong answer, right or wrong way to set your prices or your strategy, but there are things that will and won’t work.

I have spent years in revenue management, learning the ins and outs, and seeing large companies and startups struggle because revenue optimization is not at the forefront of the company's priorities.

It’s why I started TIENNE Consulting and why our four blocks of expertise are what they are.
