About this book
Filling a gap in existing literature on revenue management systems, this book explores the use of business strategies which are specifically designed to have a positive impact on economic and financial efficiency. Focussing on services within the tourism industry, the author takes a new approach and identifies dynamic pricing and service differentiation as key components of strategic management.
