Abstract
|
:
|
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. Providing fresh insights into an ever-expanding sector, this book will be a useful tool for those studying business strategy and management, as well as value creation theory, as it ultimately presents an integrated business management model which will ensure sustainability.
