Description
This podcast is produced by WeYield, the revenue management company dedicated to the car rental industry.
In this episode, Emmanuel Scuto, founder and CEO of WeYield, interviews Alienor Izri, a revenue management consultant in the car rental industry. Alienor is a French car rental optimization expert since 2015 and is based in New Zealand.
Alienor has a very scientific academic background combined with a creative passion in many fields (theater, photography). Moving to New Zealand to experience a new life, she started in car rental at Easy Car. Alienor moved the organization from static to dynamic pricing with the help of external consultants to implement this new approach with great improvements in efficiency. Quickly, Excel was not enough and systems were needed to update pricing at scale. For her, internal communication is crucial to facilitate exchanges between the different departments. Revenue Management quickly became the control tower of the organization.
