How to Open a Travel Agency
How many times have you thinking? A business that leaves the original dream of sellers and buyers. If you open a travel agency has always been your ball, here are some points to think about, to realize this wish without much difficulty.
Instructions 4 DIFFICULTIES
1. Open an asset is a responsibility and not just a step. Make a budget of at least 60 thousand euro as fund fully boot (rental shop, practice, furniture, equipment, secretary). Put that quote in the first year will only serve to try to buffer the costs and the profit margin will be minimal.
2.La regulations governing the opening of a travel agency is a regional responsibility. Then informed at the counters of your region, dedicated to be made aware of opportunities, grants, deadlines, rules governing the opening of the bureaucratic point of view.
3. You must have or open a VAT number and register with the Companies Register of the Chamber of Commerce in your province. Being a travel agent - type precisely regulated by law - you must also request authorization from the regional and pay a deposit (the cost can vary).
4. You rent a room in a fairly busy (shopping mall, shop corner, in urban areas, close to community centers). Your business must surely be in sight, with at least one large window that allows you to expose the tourist offers of the moment to be renewed periodically.
5. For each agency it takes a director rsponsabile. Involves the crossing of becoming a regional examination at the end of a course. There are many companies that allow industry to open a shop selling tourist products in franchising.
The support of these companies can be useful if you have not experienced or is not entitled to be sole director. In addition to management, first aid training and sales can support the first part of the cost of the furniture store, software and the like. The cost of membership is between 20 and 40 thousand euro.
6.Tieniti updated on the tourist landscape, new entrants and initiatives in favor of the operators. Great way to learn about the industry and be heard is to attend trade fairs. There are various types throughout Europe and are also useful to measure their strength than the competition, always fierce.
7.Utilizza promotional tools such as website, newsletters, blogs and more to communicate your offerings. I am a vehicle more than the classic shop window, indicated for the passers and those who do not book online. You will have to orient towards different audiences to maximize sales.
8.La competition on the Internet. In fact many of the reservations are made online. To keep pace with the times, see some sites that offer commissions to agents on sales strategies and find out what on-line to make those sites of real allies, rather than remaining competitors.
