Vacation Spot

You just started a travel agency. In order to keep your business going, you have to convince clients you know the best place to travel too. This PowerPoint is going to be the selling point to get your clients to travel to your favorite location in the world.

 

Everything You Need to Sell Your Vacation Spot

1. Description of the location you chose. (Where is it located? What type of weather does this location have? What are the physical elements of the location-is it near a lake, near mountains? Why should they choose this location?)

2. Describe the attractions that might bring tourists to this location. (For example, what types of recreation are available? What can you do for fun? Are there any historical places located here?)

3. Describe the lodging. (For example, what different facilities can people stay in? What do they offer guests? Are they close to the attractions?)

4. Describe the restaurants around the location. (For example, are the more than just pizza places? List some that families or single people may enjoy.)

5. List your references for everything you have above. The references are the URL's from every website that you listed information from. For example: http://www.mapquest.com/ is the URL of a website.
