New Incentive!
It's incentive time again! As a valued member of the
sunshine.co.uk team, we want to keep you inspired about our holidays. As you maybe aware Travel Agents go on "educationals" or familiarity (fam) trips to help them get a first hand knowledge of the product they are selling. Despite the rumours this isn't always a 7 day alcohol fuelled jolly.
I'm Listening
We'd like to send you on a fam trip to keep those creative juices flowing and submerse you in the area your going to be writing about.
Here's the cool part - you get to set your own itinerary!
Yup, you can pick where you stay and when. We'll even let you take someone along for company! Obviously there are a few rules which are as follows...
- include the URL of the site you'll be using to promote this resort/region
- submit a full itinerary with choice of dates for flights and hotels
- stay in at least 3 different hotels, each with a different rating on our site
- include a sentence or two on why you've selected each particular accommodation
- taxis/transfers between your hotels are your responsibility, so don't wander too far!
I Still Don't Have A Travel Site!
If you still haven't gotten around to starting that travel site, this is the perfect excuse to finally get it up and running. The closing date for entry is the 10th July, where we'll draw at least one of the entries out of the hat, so make sure you're itineraries start after that date! To add your itinerary simply add it to this thread, on your own blog with a trackback to
our blog post or add it in the comments section of our
blog post. Simple. ish?
I Don't Know Where To Start, Oh Travel Guru!
Need help deciding which area / resort to have a go at? Pick one that you think you'll have an interest in, or get in touch and we'll point you in the right direction.
Can You Explain It Again?
Better than that, here's an
example itinerary based on
Fraser's new holiday site
Paphos Guide -
Quote:
Depart Edinburgh Airport the 19th August flying to Paphos (PFO)
19th-22nd Aug: Nereus Apartments (Rating: 3)
These apartments are based in the heart of the resort and a good starting base to gather info and photos of the amenities in the resort centre.
22nd-24th Aug: Azia Club and Spa (Rating: 5)
A couple of nights in the 5 star Azia complex, a favourite for families and couples at the top of end of the budget for this area. Sales would have a high basket value, reason enough to visit!
24th-26th Aug: Daphne Apartments (Rating: 4)
Located in the Kato part of Paphos which has seen more recent development, with a lot of new hotels built recently.
26th Aug: Flight home to Edinburgh

Sounds Good, I'm In
There you have it, a fairly intense week of content gathering and photo taking, with the odd opportunity for a bit of sunbathing. Build your own fam trip for your current or new holiday site and we'll help you get all the unique content you (and Google) could wish for!
OK, I Add It Where?
To add your itinerary simply add it to this thread, on your own blog with a trackback to
our blog post or add it in the comments section of our
blog post.
Cheers and Good Luck!
