Become A Home Based Travel Agent And Help People To Discover The World Around Them
The idea of home based travel agency is after all not very intimidating. The tourism sector is entirely people-centric and small steps can make huge differences. Those who are working as home based travel agent must be able to generate customer satisfaction to retain long term relation with the customers. By focusing on the niche area you can offer better services. The large sized organizations have to deal with the aspects of rising administrative costs and shrinking margins. It is the customer interface which tends to get hampered in this case. Home based travel agents on the other hand are not required to fight with office overheads.

"How can health care and innovation in India be translated into measurable outcomes?"

India's US$40 billion-a-year health care industry has grown rapidly and is now the second-largest service-sector employer in the country (after education), providing jobs for about 4.5 million people directly or indirectly.

Online Entrepreneur – Opportunity to embrace the new trend
The last business that I failed in was in the holiday and tourism industry. I had partnered with 2 other friends in selling timeshare packages to the market. The money seemed good, the business plan was drawn out and we got on with the game. However, the economic downturn hit and out went the sales. No one was interested in buying up vacation packages when all they had on their mind was survival. You can say ‘Wrong timing’ or ‘Ignorance of Economic Trends’ was the cause of the downfall. It did cost me a bit of money – office rent, office furniture and fixtures, brochure design and printing, etc. And that’s when I went broke the second time in my life!
