In hotels, RM is concerned with the market sensitive pricing of fixed room capacity relative to a hotel's specific market segments. The goal of RM is the formulation and profitable alignment of price, product and buyer. As such, RM can be defined in the service industries as a 'revenue maximization technique which aims to increase net yield through the predicted allocation of available inventory capacity to predetermined market segments at optimum price'.
