TRAVEL & TOURISM EVOLUTION 2000 years Before Christ, in India and Mesopotamia Travel for trade was an important feature since the beginning of civilization. 600 BC and thereafter The earliest form of leisure tourism can be traced as far back as the Babylonian and Egyptian empires. In India, as elsewhere, kings travelled for empire building. 500 BC, the Greek civilization The Greek tourists travelled to sites of healing gods. Inns were established in large towns and seaports to provide for travellers' needs. This era also saw the birth of travel writing. In the Middle Ages Travel became difficult and dangerous as people travelled for business or for a sense of obligation and duty.

These people were lured into travel to escape their environment to places of natural beauty, often to the countryside they had come from change of routine from a physically and psychologically stressful jobs to a leisurely pace in countryside.

- 11. PEOPLE Traveller Tourist Meet their expectations Employees – Physical appearance, Knowledge, Grooming, Trained The people who sell and service your product are an extremely important part of tourism marketing. Friendly personal service and trained employees can make or break a tourism business. Because much of the tourism industry is based upon word of-mouth advertising particularly about the service received- what your customers say after they depart can thrust your business forward or send it into a downward spiral.
- 12.

It is important to ensure that these processes are planned and carried out properly so that operations run smoothly and problems are rectified quickly

- The marketing mix is a business tool used in marketing and by marketing professionals. The marketing mix is often crucial when determining a product or brand’s offering and is often synonymous with the four P’s: price, product, promotion and place. In service marketing – like tourism, however, the four P’s have been expanded to the seven P’s to address the different nature of services. The additional three P’s in tourism are people, process and physical evidence.By taking a fresh look at these various aspects of your company you will be sure that all of your work supports your main goal – selling your services to your customer. It will also help you answer more fundamental questions such as; “who are your customers?”, “how do you reach your customers?” and “what are the needs of your customers?”, to name a few.
- When thinking about a tourism product, it’s important to differentiate between what the customers actually buy (the promise of a product) and the product – mainly a service – that they receive after the purchase (the actual product). The purchasing decision made by the tourist is based on the promise of the product – a promise established by what she or he sees in your promotional material. This is because the tourism product – unlike a car or a computer – consists of a combination of tangible and intangible items and the potential customers “buy” the product before “acquiring” the product (we’ll dive deeper into this in our next blog post).For example, the product “Amazon Lodge” – is the combination of tangible goods (e.g. the rooms, the swimming pool, the birds) and intangible experiences (e.g. the service, the activities). Obviously, the product is thousands of miles away and you are not buying the property, therefore the actual product you buy is the promise displayed on the brochure (while the brochure is a promotional channel).
- Placement is synonymous with distribution. It refers to providing the product at a place, which is convenient for consumers to access. In tourism, the product is not distributed to the client, but the clients travel to the product. Thus, unlike physical products, tourism distribution is more related to where you distribute the information about the service (trade shows, resellers, webpages, etc.). In the example of the brochure of the Amazon Lodge, the placement may be your office, a trade show in London or to potential customer´s houses (by direct mailing).
- Price is what the business charges for its’ tourism product as defined by the interacting forces of supply and demand.At a practical level, tourism enterprises can determine their prices by analyzing:The cost of running the business;The willingness to pay by the demand;The prices of the competition;The commission to be provided to resellers.In tourism, two prices are often used: rack rates, which are the prices published in promotional materials – without discounts, and net prices (or net rates), which is the rack rate less the commission offered to resellers (tour operators or other intermediaries).It may also be advantageous to differentiate rates for seniors, children, off-season, etc.
- Any person coming into contact with customers can have an impact on overall satisfaction. In tourism, people are particularly important because, in the customer’s eyes, they are generally inseparable from total service.In tourism, the human component is very important, so the attitude, skills and appearance of all people involved in the traveler’s experience needs to be first class. Some ways in which people add value to an experience, as part of the marketing mix, are training and service.
- If tourism business offers services, the processes of the business can offer specific advantages. Processes should do more than just make life easier for the business – they must help customers get what they want.For instance, for booking a flight on the internet the process begins with the customer visiting an airline’s website. The customer enters details of the flights and books them. The customer’s ticket/booking references arrive by email (or, less and less, by post). The customer catches his flight on time and he arrives refreshed at his destination. The coming together of all the mentioned stages constitutes a marketing process.
- Promotion is the activity of telling your market about your product. In the example of the Amazon Lodge, you are using a brochure to tell your customers about a tourism product in the Amazon.Nowadays, promotion is replaced by communications, which represents a broader focus. Communications can include advertising, public relations, personal selling, viral advertising, and any form of communication between the organization and the consumer.
- Makes the customers perceive how the services would be like. Unlike a physical product, a service cannot be experienced before it is delivered, which makes it intangible. This, therefore, means that potential customers could perceive greater risk when deciding whether or not to use a service. To reduce the feeling of risk, thus improving the chance for success, it is vital for potential customers to see what a product would be like. This is done by providing physical evidence – displayed in photographs (of your facilities, etc.) or testimonials (what tourists write about their own previous experience).
