Tulisan ini memfokuskan penyajian mengenai Manajemen Acara (Event Organizer & PCO), Agen Kapal Pesiar (Cruise Agent), BPW dan APW (Tour Operator & Travel Agent) “modern” yang dikategorikan sebagai Home Web-Based Travel Business.
Para pengelola BPW & APW “tradisional”, mau tidak mau, sudah harus menyesuaikan diri, tanpa menunda-nunda lebih lama lagi. Kalau tidak, lambat laum perusahaan mereka akan mati pelan-pelan dan kemudian gulung tikar sama sekali.
Mengapa home-based atau web-based travel business?
Pemilik dan/atau pengelola bisnis wisata ini bisa berkantor di rumah. Dengan demikian, biaya pengelolaannya lebih hemat. Waktu operasinya bisa 24/7. Dua puluh empat jam, tujuh hari seminggu, tanpa tutup.
Para pengelola bisnis ini bisa terhindar dari hal-hal yang menjengkelkan dalam perjalanan menuju kantor. Terbebas dari stress yang bisa menyebabkan sakit jantung.Tidak perlu menghirup udara yang sudah kena polusi dan terjauh dari kecelakaan lalu lintas.
Selain dari itu, pengeluaran biaya untuk kendaraan, termasuk waktu, ke dan dari kantor bisa dihemat.
Pemanfaatan Aplikasi Teknologi Informasi & Komunikasi Untuk Bisnis Pariwisata
Sewaktu menatar atau memberi kuliah saya sering mengajukan pertanyaan: Sebenarnya Biro Perjalanan Wisata itu menjual apa?
Setelah mendengarkan beberapa jawaban dari hadirin, saya memberikan sebuah jawaban singkat, yang tidak terduga oleh mereka, yaitu informasi. Informasi yang dikemas menjadi produk atau Info Products.
Note: BPW & APW miskin informasi akan tetap “miskin” dan tidak berkembang, akhirnya mati pelan-pelan dan gulung tikar.
Dewasa ini, produk-produk yang dipasarkan melalui internet (online or internet marketing) sebagian besar merupakan info products, termasuk fasilitas penunjang mereka (software & hardware).
Jarang sekali transaksi bisnis terjadi, tanpa didahului pemberian informasi lengkap. Lebih baru suatu produk yang diper-dagangkan, lebih banyak informasi yang diperlukan calon pembeli.
Pebisnis piawai akan mempergunakan Ilmu Menjual atau Kewiraniagaan (Salesmanship) dan Ilmu Mengenal Barang (Product Knowledge) ketika melakukan kegiatan jual beli.
Pramuniaga yang melayani pelanggan harus paham betul pengertian dan pengaplikasian ungkapan: Features tell, Benefits sell. Lebih banyak benefits dijelaskan, lebih baik. Kemungkinan terjadinya transaksi bisnis lebih besar.
Careers In Travel and Tourism
Is there a place for you in the travel and tourism industry? We at GLOBAL TRAVEL BUSINESS & EDUCATION CENTRE and 1st Class Travel & Tourism Academy are certain there is. whether you're changing careers or looking for a new job, travel and tourism will offer you possibilities like no other. Here are seven reasons that a job in travel and tourism might be right for you:
1. The possibility of your achieving a fulfilling career is excellent. According to many estimates, travel and tourism has become the world's biggest industry. That means jobs - and plenty of them. And though there have been occasional downturns in the travel industry's "health", it inevitably bounces back - and quickly, too.
2. The choices you have are nearly endless. Touring, lodging, hospitality services, air travel, cruising, destination promotion, airport operations, theme parks - all these sectors and more provide hundreds of thousands of travel jobs, each unique, each potentially rewarding.
3. The perks are great. Travel professionals typically receive major discounts for their own travel. And at GLOBAL TRAVEL BUSINESS & EDUCATION CENTRE and 1st Class Travel & Tourism Academy we teach you all sorts of "insider information" that will help you travel better, even if you choose not to pursue a career in the business.
4. You can make a difference. Travel - especially leisure travel - helps people learn about other cultures, grow in their understanding of the world and fulfill their dreams. It has a more measurable effect, too, providing vital economic support to thousands of places and creating enormous economic success. In many ways, tourism has become a critical force for world peace. Few industries can make that claim.
5. You can get ahead fast. If you have talent, energy and a good work ethic, promotions will probably come swiftly to you. The travel industry provides a wide-open path for career advancement, especially in those sectors that are growing rapidly and for employees who are committed to hard work. And if you're an entrepreneur, you'll find plenty of opportunities in travel for achievement and success.
6. It's flexible. Many jobs in travel are very flexible. Tens of thousands of travel professionals now work from home or work hours that fit their personal schedules.
7. It's fun. Travel and tourism is exciting, gratifying and immensely enjoyable. As with any job, though, the demands can be challenging. But these are often offset by the simple fact that travel and tourism is one of the most wonderful industries around.
So your interest in travel and tourism is well placed. After all, what other product or service conjures such wondrous images of exotic places, exciting, activities, fascinating cultures and extraordinary challenges? It's a great business. And GLOBAL TRAVEL BUSINESS & EDUCATION CENTRE and 1st Class Travel & Tourism Academy can help you be a part of it.
Cruise Ship
A cruise ship is divided into several departments and shipboard employees are typically split between these departments. By viewing each department you will find full job descriptions of all available cruise positions for that particular department.
For each position onboard there is a description, job requirements, details of the duties you would perform, employment information and a guide-line to the typical wage you would earn for that position on a cruise ship.
This section provides essential information and will help you determine which position onboard a cruise ship is right for you.
Detailed info on the Cruise Ship Management will be described later.
