Creating value for and training talent to help travel and hospitality businesses integrate revenue optimisation into their company culture, is a very important aspect for Judith Cartwright, Founder and Managing Director of Black Coral Consulting.

As it enters its third year, Black Coral Consulting has launched an insightful eBook, providing industry professionals with cutting-edge revenue management strategies.

For her, the path to profitability goes way beyond ‘managing’ inventory and analysing spreadsheets but focuses instead on creating attractive spaces that resonate with target audiences, meet demand, and maximise profitability. Asset management with a commercial lens is a must for long-term growth and success, future-proofing businesses to weather any storm.
