Questions and Answers

1.

Your marketing people send you the details of the next marketing campaign launching in a few days. What do you do?
- A.
  
  I immediately brief my team. The product is priced and timed well for our market so we get behind the campaign 100% and support it locally.
- B.
  
  Nothing. I take a brief mental note and will check out the details if I get any enquiries.
- C.
  
  It reminds me that my local paper is waiting for our regular ad, so I rush around and get it sorted using my own product, layout and money.

You’ve put together an escorted tour to your favourite destination and you already have 6 pax confirmed on it, but you need at least 6 more to make it profitable. What do you do?
- A.
  
  I’ve never done an escorted tour and wouldn’t know where to start. Too hard.
- B.
  
  I advertise the tour locally, hold a customer information evening and send an email out to the other stores in my group asking them for help to sell it.
- C.
  
  I send the tour details off to be loaded on all of my brand’s store websites and E-newsletters. I also post up a quick “sales pitch” on our interactive facebook-style intranet so all the staff around the country are motivated to sell my tour.

When you receive your monthly override payment you feel:
- A.
  
  Confused. It really makes no sense to me and any attempts to find out more have never come to anything.
- B.
  
  Elated. I can go ahead and buy that Porsche now! (Maybe not quite yet, but my earn is way better than last year and I can see what I need to sell more of to earn even more).
- C.
  
  Indifferent. It probably seems about right, maybe.

Your sales are down this month and your forward bookings are looking a bit light. You’re keen to know if it’s just you, so you:
- A.
  
  Check my results against the monthly benchmarking results for my group and then discuss them with my colleagues on our fortnightly managers conference call.
- B.
  
  Phone a couple of colleagues and/or your head office to see how they’re going.
- C.
  
  Phone a friend for a wine after work – that’s bound to make it better…

5.

You’ve just been given the details of your next regional or national meeting or conference. Your immediate thoughts are:
- A.
  
  Waste of time & money.
- B.
  
  I guess I’ll go along. There are usually some good speakers, although you forget it all pretty quickly once you’re back in the office. Nice to catch up with colleagues.
- C.
  
  It will be great to re-energise and learn some new stuff from my peers. I wonder what we'll be asked to present this time. I want to make sure our presentation is the best and really helps the others.

6.

Your GDS contract is up for renewal. What do you do?
- A.
  
  I can rely on my brand’s GM and board to provide unbiased pros & cons of each offer and their recommendation, although ultimately the decision is mine to make for my business.
- B.
  
  I go with my group’s deal. It seems OK and I really don’t have any choice.
- C.
  
  I get a proposal from each of the GDS’s, but there’s not much difference in product or rebates & benefits so I may as well stick with what I’ve got I think?
Rate this question:
7.

The help & support you receive from your head office and network of colleagues within your brand/group is:
- A.
  
  Outstanding. They’re there when I need them and they listen and act on my needs without fail. My colleagues offer a wealth of unconditional support.
- B.
  
  Average. They don’t really help me, even when I ask, and don’t understand my needs.
- C.
  
  Non existent – I pretty much do my own thing.
Rate this question:
8.

Are you happy with your business’s performance?
- A.
  
  No.
- B.
  
  Yes.
- C.
  
  Sort of – I don’t really know if or how I could do better.
