visitors head to Italy, making the UK the fourth most important market for the Mediterranean country – but it’s not the easiest country to sell because it offers such diversity and clients can get confused by the choice and range of holidays on offer. Another potential hurdle, which was
revealed at this summer’s Destination Dialogue: Italy, organised by Selling Short Breaks and Holidays, is the linger- ing perception that Italy is an expensive country to visit.
Client 'types' vary for Italy but as
a general rule are a bit older, value culture, good food and wine and want to experience great scenery. Such factors mean that many poten- tial Italy-bound travellers will turn to knowledgeable travel agents for help – which is why it is essential to start training NOW! So improve your knowledge on Italy
by logging on today.
