Why does Incentive Travel work?
Unlike leisure travel, incentive travel has a specific
business objective. The primary objective of "incentive travel" may be to
increase sales volume. Or it may be to improve morale and good will, introduce new
products, move full line or slow items, offset competition, bolster a slow season, build
dealer traffic, prepare for strong season, or support consumer promotion. Incentive travel
is one part of a broad range of marketing tactics used to achieve various goals. How does Incentive Travel work?
Travel incentives work much like advertising to reinforce a company's image with salespeople, trade partners, and consumers. Any travel program is the direct reflection of the company's quality standards. Therefore, Incentive Travelers Cheque International® takes pride in offering the leading names in hotels, airlines, cruise lines, and resorts.
Incentive Travelers Cheque International® With participating facilities in almost every major city in the United States, and in parts of the Caribbean, Europe, Asia and the South Pacific, Incentive Travelers Cheque International® offers one-stop convenience for all of your hotel, cruise, airline, and car rental needs. Now you can reward anyone with the personalized care and attention to detail that are the hallmarks of iTCheque individual incentive travel. We offer clients the ability to choose all or part of the services we offer. One of our account executives will be happy to discuss options with you: just call (312) 527-1111. Why do merchandise gift certificates work? In the past, merchandise catalogs were often offered to winners. The costs associated with inventory, shipping, and customer tracking made the price of the products non-competitive when compared to the large number of discounters offering similar products at retail. In addition, the various state and county sales tax regulations made it virtually impossible to comply when shipping from one state to another. iTCheques help you avoid all of these problems while offering the winner an unlimited award selection! What are the advantages of using merchandise gift certificate awards?
Does using iTCheque cost any more than going directly to the suppliers? At Incentive Travelers Cheque International®, we have no vested interest in the products we recommend. By dealing in "net" rate products for our clients, our client benefits most when we recommend the most motivating vehicle, rather than fitting a program into an existing package that offers a high commission and/or rebate. All prices include our commission. Unlike a local travel agency or retailer, we are marketing experts. We do not "sell" destinations or products. Our large purchasing volume allows us to negotiate competitive costs with our suppliers and we pass those savings along to you. Our prices are guaranteed for a calendar year with no high or low season fluctuations. At Incentive Travelers Cheque International®, we have no vested interest in the products we recommend.
