Las Vegas-based consultancy Rainmaker Group has hired respected consultant Angie Dobney as vice president of pricing and revenue management services.
Dobney started her career in hotel operations, but entered revenue management at the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas, where she was executive director of revenue management for seven years, before joining Station Casinos as its corporate director of revenue management. Most recently, she was president and lead consultant of the Dobney Group, a Las Vegas-based hospitality consulting company.
“I was completely happy and successful running my own consulting company and was making a great living, but I chose to join Rainmaker because I believe so much in the product, I love the team, and I want to help the company continue to grow,” said Dobney, who said Rainmaker’s GuestREV revenue management solution represents an industry standard for profit optimization.
“Number one, the product and all subsequent versions can easily integrate with other system providers and those companies do not have to upgrade their software to install it,” she said. “Rainmaker also has great relationships with those vendors through whom it must work to get their data. It has a great science team and, toe-to-toe with other industry competitors, Rainmaker’s forecasts are absolutely better.”
