Subject: How can I promote my travel services in Thailand?
Posted: 20 Apr 2010 at 6:45am

For sure Thai culture is completely different, but even if you're marketing to a western audience there are plenty of opportunities to attract customers.
First off, the most important thing will be to make yourself a good website, and get information about your services out there for people to read. You'll be surprised how many people will then find their own way to you - especially if what you're offering is unique.

Thai culture is vastly different from English culture and so before setting foot in Thailand you should find out about the essential 'do and don'ts' . Good luck!

Humane tourism is part of the movement of responsible tourism.The idea is to empower local communities through travel relatedbusinesses around the world - first and foremost in developingcountries.

The idea of humane travel or humane tourismis to connect travelers from Europe, North America, Australia and NewZealand seeking new adventures and authentic experiences directly, tolocal businesses in the specific locations they wish to visit - thus,giving economic advantages to local businesses and giving travelers authentic and truly unique travel experiences.

Humane travel or humane tourismfocus on the people, the local community. The idea is to enabletravelers to experience the world through the eyes of its local peoplewhile contributing directly to those people, ensuring that touristdollars benefit the local community directly.

Humane tourismis about giving opportunity to the local people, empower them, enablethem to enjoy the fruits of tourism directly. The Internet is changingtourism. More and more travelers are planning their travels andvacations via the net. The Internet enables people to cut offcommissions. The traveler can search for new destinations to visit,talk or read about other people experience, and buy the servicesdirectly.

The Internet platform can encouragelocal people to start new businesses and that already existing smallbusinesses will begin to promote themselves through the net and receivethe economic advantages of this directly in their communities. Theworld is now in a new tourism age, with globalization and the Internetplaying a key role.

The new travelers havetraveled the world, they have seen the classic sites. Staying at aWestern hotel is not attractive enough, and they are excited by theprospect of experiencing the authentic local way of life: to go fishingwith a local fisherman, to eat the fish with his family, to sleep in atypical village house. These tourists or travelers, are happy to knowthat while doing so they promote the economic wellbeing of those samepeople they spend time with.]]> Sun, 04 Apr 2010 11:01:03 +0000 http://www.artyforum.info/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=172&PID=697#697 http://www.artyforum.info/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=475&PID=648#648 Author: sai

"Tourist" redirects here. For other uses, see Tourist (disambiguation).
Tourism is travel for recreational, leisure or business purposes. The World Tourism Organization defines tourists as people who "travel to and stay in places outside their usual environment for more than twenty-four (24) hours and not more than one consecutive year for leisure, business and other purposes not related to the exercise of an activity remunerated from within the place visited".[1] Tourism has become a popular global leisure activity. In 2008, there were over 922 million international tourist arrivals, with a growth of 1.9% as compared to 2007. International tourism receipts grew to US$944 billion (euro 642 billion) in 2008, corresponding to an increase in real terms of 1.8%.[2]
As a result of the Late-2000s recession, international travel demand suffered a strong slowdown beginning in June 2008, with growth in international tourism arrivals worldwide falling to 2% during the boreal summer months,[3] and this negative trend intensified as international tourist arrivals fell by 8% during the first four months of 2009.[2] Thereafter this declining trend was exacerbated in some regions due to the outbreak of the influenza AH1N1 virus.[2]
Tourism is vital for many countries, such as Australia, Egypt, Greece and Thailand, and many island nations, such as The Bahamas, Fiji, Maldives and the Seychelles, due to the large intake of money for businesses with their goods and services and the opportunity for employment in the service industries associated with tourism. These service industries include transportation services, such as airlines, cruise ships and taxis, hospitality services, such as accommodations, including hotels and resorts, and entertainment venues, such as amusement parks, casinos, shopping malls, various music venues and the theatre.
