My School Bus
內容大綱
A small-scale school bus company was founded five years ago to facilitate the home-to-school transportation of high school and middle school students who were enrolled in specialized programs. The company was owned by a husband-and-wife team who worked full time to arrange private bus transportation to four schools within their neighbourhood school district. The company was operating below break-even, and the owners wondered how they might increase ridership or revenues.
學習目標
The case describes a “one price for all” private school-bus company that is struggling to become profitable. One possible revenue-enhancing solution is to segment the market and set different prices for each market segment. The case provides the data to investigate this revenue-management approach by building a price-optimization model and determining the revenue impact of variable pricing.
