About

Elizabeth P. Cambra, Founder

Elizabeth Cambra founded StrategicRev as a hospitality strategy and pricing consulting firm born from the passion for working with all size companies to look at their revenue and cost streams, find the opportunities to increase revenues, and develop a strategic plan to deploy change. She is a successful leader with more than 25 years of achievement in strategy, pricing, forecasting, data and analytics, project management, and distribution with an extensive focus on Operations, Sales, and Marketing. Cambra has optimized multiple brands, both owned and franchises, in global locations with a multitude of systems. She can initiate change by identifying opportunities for applying analytics to increase profit, operational efficiency, and customer satisfaction.

“The revenue discipline has been my passion from day one. While many are frustrated by the challenge of knowing that there is always more revenue to be made, this is what has driven me to always change my strategy and never rely on what worked yesterday. Every strategy has room for growth. I see this as an ongoing opportunity versus a failure.”
