Managers must consider ways to increase their sales. Sometimes a new approach can yield impressive results. A travel incentive is a proven motivational tool to reach sales goals. The Incentive Research Foundation reported that company productivity increased an average of 18% when travel was used as an incentive.
Travel incentive packages can be created for any budget and length of time. Trips range from a European destination to a weekend break. Depending on the time of year and choice of accommodation, it can cost as little as $1,000 per person for a three-night cruise or relaxing trip to an all-inclusive resort in the Caribbean. Plus, there are discounts available for group bookings at hotels and on cruise lines.
Incentive trips can be scheduled at any time of the year. It is ideal to plan the trip when your organization has a slower period. Your employees will enjoy lounging on the beach, visiting the wine country, exploring a new city or hitting the slopes.
Busy work schedules make it difficult to arrange company meetings. Cruise lines will provide meeting space and equipment at no additional cost. Conference rooms can be booked at resorts or hotels. Incentive travel trips make it easy to mix business and pleasure.
A travel incentive package creates excitement and encourages a competitive spirit as employees work to qualify for the trip. The trip also provides a great networking opportunity for top performers.
