Tourism Action Plans 2020
In the new decade, we need to set Tourism action plans, especially for the year 2020. These are actionable programs that we need to implement in order to register success in our Tourism operations. Our experts in Tourism Consultant will list some of the Tourism action plans that need to be focused on by any Tour operator this 2020
It is important that once they are listed and documented, they should be allocated a budget that will facilitate their implementation and be evaluated to review positive and negative results. For starters in the Tourism business or tour operations in Uganda & Rwanda here are some of the key Tourism action plans for 2020
1. Having a functional and content-rich website
If you already have a website, revisit it and see if it has good content for your customers or audience. It is never too late to contact your web developer to add more appealing content to your market. For the companies that have been in existence think of an in-house content manager or blogger responsible for sharing fresh content on to your website and to all social media handles
2. Securing a great team
Most tour companies in Uganda are fond of a one-man’s show. You find a director doing everything. Think of outsourcing young, brilliant, and energetic staff with new ideas to move your company. These are more accountable than you are they can work under a given pressure to ensure positive results
3. Online Advertisement
Any business to grow, advertisements must be made. In this line online is such a great idea to reach more audience by the internet search giant Google using Google ads. You can also think of link building from strong and high-traffic websites that will empower you online and be able to dominate online
4. Creating time for your business
Most directors hardly create time for their business, think of an average of 6 hrs per day thinking and laying working strategies to grow your tour/safari company. Take time and talk to tourism consultants to share product knowledge or seek to train your team and get upskilled with the new trends in tour operation and keep up to date with changing trends in the industry.
5. Adopt to New technology & travel software
Among the best Tourism action plans, this 2020 would be to adopt new technology in this new decade. Most tour operators do things in a manual way including generating itineraries, quoting using excel, and invoicing traditionally. The trend is now sophisticated, especially for those handling high volumes of tourists and bookings.
A lot leaves to be desired but 2020 marks a new decade of the tourism business getting to another level and those that are prepared will surely reap big as the business remains lucrative. Tourists will keep taking Uganda safaris and coming for Safaris in Rwanda as the region remains a target for those seeking for Gorilla trekking Safaris and Chimpanzee treks in Africa such life-changing experiences to tourists
