This podcast looks at Total Revenue Forecasting (TRF) as a logical first stepping stone towards Total Revenue Management (TRM). We are joined on the podcast by Michael McCartan, Managing Director – EMEA, Duetto.
It touches on the different areas where TRF can be applied, the challenges that can be faced and the importance of the PMS and the data it produces.
Finally, it considers how the Revenue Manager needs to evolve and how TRF/TRM provides the opportunity to do that – for the benefit or themselves and their Hotel.
NB: Duetto are one of our Expert Partners
