A Workshop on How to Work with the Travel Trade
Travel trade is the collection of companies that buy and sell travel products. This includes receptive and international inbound tour operators and travel agents.
Working with the travel trade will provide you with access to a broader market of potential customers and help you increase bookings for your business!
This workshop is designed to provide tactics, processes and best business practices on how to develop and expand your distribution, and ultimately, your business in the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, France, and China markets.
The presentations and hands-on activities will help you answer the questions:
• Am I ready for the international market?
• How can travel trade help build my business?
• How will travel trade change how I do business?
• Which travel trade partners should I work with?
• How do I gain new travel trade partners?
Where: Rodd Grand Yarmouth, 417 Main Street, Yarmouth, Nova Scotia
When: Tuesday, March 10, 8:30am - 4:30pm
Registration fee: $30 + HST = $34.50
