One of my neighbors is planning to start a new travel and tourism company. Since I know that family for years they asked to me to research on the subject and provide some valuable information. Though recession of 2007 weakened tourism industry, there was a 6% growth a year after that. Statistical data suggests that the tourism industry will contribute nearly 11% to the GDP. This points out that the industry is growing in a fast pace and this is the best time to build good relationships with neighboring countries. As per the data, we can see as many as 700 million tourists traveling across the globe this year.

The ministry of tourism of any country encourages such business to promote the growth of the tourism industry. This is one of the industries that face challenges due to a country’s changing economic conditions. However, the ministry of tourism is giving a bag full of support to improve the growth of tourism industry. The policies adopted by them can enhance the tourism sector, thereby attracting as many tourists as possible.

Some of the tools to improve tourism are as follows:-

Online marketing and giving advertisement on different television channels
Giving proper training to people working in Service sector
Giving single payment or multiple payment option
Developing better infrastructure
Giving proper security options
Payment assistance in the form of loan or bonds

To attract maximum tourists to our country we have to do as much as possible. Tourism industry is related to several other industries in serving people. Some of the industries that are closely related to tourism industry include Hotel and Lodging industry, F&B industry, Transport industry, Finance and Insurance industry and Retail markets. If all these industries work hand in hand, then a country’s travel and tourism business will reach great heights.

As part of helping my friend in starting his new business I had done a research on various methods to improve the business. I think online advertisements, announcements or advertisements on television channels and calling people to make them aware of the service are some of the best possible ways.

Online advertisements will not be easy without having a good Internet connection. I came to know that Internet service from Charter Communications is one of the best services for business people. Charter business high speed Internet offers cost effective Internet solutions that fit the needs of any small size business. If we have to pin point the add-ons, then they can be as follows-

•Custom hosting of the website
•Personalized email address
•Data backup available
•Can scale up bandwidth easily and quickly to match growing business needs
•Cost effective
•Round the clock customer support
•Security

Like online advertisement, announcements on different television channels also boost up the business. Bundling of Charter’s Internet service with television service provides all the two services at affordable rates. Charter TV has never been as vivid and abundant. Business Cable TV can give immediate response to your advertisements. When compared to other television service providers, those who subscribed for Charter cable TV is more. That means more coverage. As a business person, no other medium can offer immediate news about economic and political issues affecting your business. I think cable is the simple and effective way to enhance business without the disturbance of unreliable antennas and satellite dishes.

Telephonic advertisement is also effective. Charter’s affordable business phone gives the flexibility to connect to your customers from anywhere. It gives the option to integrate your office phone, home phone and cell phone. This allows the customers to reach you at any time by calling just one number. By choosing its unlimited long distance package, you can keep track of your call charges and know exactly what you can expect to pay. As a travel and tourism company, long distance calling will be essential. I think this package can fit the company’s needs. To run a travel and tourism business in a successful way, Charter’s business packages can be the best bet.

Ann is a freelancer. Recently her neighbor asked to give some details about the travel and tourism business. She surfed on her home computer connected to Charter Communications and collected some details about the industry. She wrote an article about that and handed it to her neighbor.
