Many well-paying professional jobs are now available, both domestically and internationally! We are getting back to our travels and many Americans are motivated to travel all across the USA and worldwide. Before Covid-19, foreign tourists were finding America to be a great value and this is returning quickly. Many people will not travel unless they book a tour, take a cruise or travel with you their friend who knows the destination. Travel and tourism is the world's fastest growing industry, and relatively recession proof. If you love to travel, earn income as a tour director. Work part or full-time leading tours for major companies. Plus, get a free tour by promoting trips for tour companies or putting trips together for friends, family or groups. Work for a company or start your own business. Learn the qualifications needed, the "five easy ways to get a job in the tour industry", how to start your own tour company (with little investment), how to design excellent tours and negotiate group discounts, tour director salaries, and "101 Ways to Promote Your Tour & Make It a Success". Instructor, Gina Henry, founder of Go Global, Inc., leads tours worldwide for major tour companies as well as her own tour business of 30 years. She is an International Tour Management Institute (ITMI) certified tour director and teaches travel classes nationwide. The materials fee is for Gina's 100-page e-book, Get Paid To Be a Tour Guide and Travel Free (a $39.95 value) which provides names, phone numbers, and websites of all of the contacts you need to put this practical information to use).
