Student Testimonials

This course [Hotel Revenue Data Science] was a great learning experience, well-structured and many short videos made it really easy to study this course at your own pace. The course explains difficult concepts in an easy way and as someone who has not worked in the hotel business before, the course really explains the concepts behind RM and provided me with the insights needed to understand how to mathematically optimize revenues. But also the SQL and Excel course included in this package are extremely useful and I will definitely be applying much of this in my current work in business intelligence from now on.

"In our daily job as Revenue Managers, we need to search for the right indicators to understand how our market works, how it reacts to our prices, how our demand is created and by whom. To get all this right we basically need to base our opinion on real data instead of intuition. With Robert's amazing courses I discovered the beauty of Data Science. Now I know why we study mathematics at school! Robert took me to step-by-step into understanding the how and the why of every single process to get what I wanted from the PMS. Now I can understand my demand patterns and I can organize and optimize my prices based on real information and I also know how the RMS works." Linkedin Profile

Wow, what a great course! I have just completed it and I wish I had done it many years ago! It would have helped me so much during my career as a DORM. Many systems (PMS or RMS), especially ones that are commonly used by independent hotels offer limited types of reporting to be used for demand analysis. These system often don’t take into consideration the uniqueness of each business either. This course certainly provides a great tool to learn about data analytics, from how to retrieve the data through the entire process to be able to analyze production, make pricing decisions and create forecast.

"The course is structured perfectly. The body of knowledge is the true science of revenue management. These skills will equip you with the confidence and wisdom you need to apply RevMan concepts." Linkedin Profile

I cannot begin to tell you the value of this course. It was eye opening for someone that is not a Revenue Manager. It provided the tools to be mathematically specific in what I ask our reporting departments to do. The ability to look and understand specific data by hotel and collectively was achieved. Understanding the SQL reporting capabilities was golden. Linkedin Profile

Great course, highly recommended! Linkedin Profile

Despite the difficulty of conceptualizing and implement Revenue management science you have managed to give to us, with simple and very understanding way, the importance of implementing good revenue practices. I hope you will continue to inform us with more robust and analytical skills and techniques. Linkedin Profile

This is the best Revenue Management course I have ever taken. Linkedin Profile

This course was able to take a complex discussion and present it in a easy to understand and follow curriculum.  I was especially impressed with the discussions of theory that underlined the detailed explanations on how to accomplish each piece of the puzzle.  Although the subject of the material can be complex, Robert was able to break it into small easy to consume explanations.  I know the value of myself and my company have vastly improved with the completion of this course.

I can’t begin to tell you how engaging these courses are. I oversee two independent hotels. I have a number of Excel workbooks I have built on my own by extracting PMS data and so far these courses have shed new light on how I can improve them and my thought processes. I also love reading your blog posts. It is quite obvious you are what RM needs to be and I look forward to modeling myself in these practices. Linkedin Profile

Having been through a number of RM courses, including one from Cornell, yours really explains and shows the calculations behind the RM system being used.  Your concept of looking at the individual transactions opened a whole new world for me, especially how this relates to pricing. Linkedin Profile
