In the travel industry, holiday companies and tour operators frequently employ an army of homeworkers. This works well for a number of reasons.
Homeworkers gives more flexibility for your sales agents
You have access to a wider part of the job market, and the sales agent is motivated to perform. The slight difficulty is in arranging training for them. You know they need sales training, but often getting your home based team into your offices at the same time for training can be challenging !
Holiday Experts have announced (in Travel Weekly 23rd Oct 2009) that they expect to recruit another 100 home workers during the next two years after several of their existing team saw their commission earnings increased by more than 41% following successful in-house training. Alan Cook our travel industry training specialist has many years sales training experience having worked at Thomas Cook and Page & Moy, now part of Travelsphere. He has run many successful training programmes and can even offer home based one to one coaching and training for your sales staff. We can be flexible in how we deliver travel industry telephone sales training so you and your team don’t have to be !
