Build your business with Travel Incentives


By Sheryl Strasser


Everyone knows that nothing closes a sale better than a free
bonus. The problem is, selecting the right bonuses can be
time consuming and expensive, plus the extra shipping costs
can eat away at profit margins. That's why travel incentives
are the perfect solution for both Internet-based and physical
businesses.

Travel incentives are a win-win business giveaway that you
can use to close sales, reward frequent buyers, or offer as
incentives for responding to upsells, cross-sells, or
membership renewal campaigns.

Travel incentives are typically presented as certificates which
the bearer can redeem for air travel, cruises, hotel stays, or
whatever other travel opportunity is offered on the travel
incentive coupon.

One of the best features of travel incentive coupons is their
low cost. Business owners can purchase as few or as many
travel coupons as they want. Although they are inexpensive
to purchase, they have a very high perceived value from the
customer's point of view. After all, everyone knows how
expensive it is to fly to an exciting vacation destination, or
stay at a quality hotel. Travel incentive coupons look like they
are worth hundreds or even thousands of dollars. Your
customers will think that you have over-delivered, and they
will be quite impressed.

A recent survey shows that over 80% of survey respondents
said they would like to travel more if they could afford it.
Imagine being able to offer a free business incentive that
grants the wishes of so many people!

How Travel Incentives Work

Travel incentives are a life-saver to the hospitality industry.
When hotels need to fill their rooms, or airline flights are
empty, travel incentives bring in needed business.

Although the travel and rooms are free to the traveller, the
industry knows that each vacationer will spend money on
food, entertainment, souvenirs and other products and
services while they are on vacation. Travel incentive coupons
stimulate the economy and everyone benefits.

How to buy travel incentives

Travel incentive coupons are sold by authorized brokers.
Although there are a lot of companies selling coupons, not all
of them are authorized. The difference between buying from
an authorized broker, and a fly-by-night one, is the quality of
the travel experience that your customer receives. Nothing
could be worse then to give your customer a gift that turns
out to be a disaster. You can't afford to take chances.

The better authorized travel incentive brokers offer high-
quality travel vacation vouchers that, for example, include 3
days and 2 night 3-star hotel accommodations and $500
spending certificates in some cities.

Most of the better brokers also offer travel incentive coupons
that can be combined with other travel incentive coupons to
create dream packages like 3-day getaways to 4 and 5-star
hotels, including airfare, for less than the cost of dinner for
two at your local pizza restaurant.

Don't waste your time and money offering bonuses that look
like every other free offer out there. Give your customer the
gift of free travel and watch your sales explode.
