Revenue risk is a potential event or condition that negatively impacts your future revenue. This includes forces beyond your direct control such as economic conditions and elements of your strategy such as product launches. The following are illustrative examples of revenue risk.

Declining prices due to competition and market forces such as commodity prices.

Operational Risk

Operational risks such as a supply chain disruption that results in reduced supply of your products.

Information Security

An information security incident that disrupts your services or marketing channels.

Distribution

Distribution issues such as a dispute with a channel partner that leads to decreased sales in a particular region.

Promotion

A promotional campaign such as a catalog mailing that doesn't achieve what you expect.

Sales

Sales problems such as an unpopular incentive plan that causes several top performers to leave your sales team.

Customer Churn

Customer attrition due to customer satisfaction issues or competition.

Brand Risk

Brand related risks such as declining brand awareness and recognition.

Reputation

Reputational risks such as a hotel that receives bad publicity due to a customer service incident. This causes declining reviews, rankings and bookings.
