FIT
As soon as I walk in the door I hear, Dino I have a project for you!
Great.
My manager says you are going to do FIT contracts. What the means is foreign international travelers. So basically travel agencies. What we do is give them a block of rooms for a negotiated price and the foreign travelers book through them to stay at our property.
So I got about 6 different companies that have contracts with us and update the rates and room types we offer to them. We had agencies such as tour mappers, travalco, city tours of Maine. So my job was to fill in all of our property information and our rates for high and low season and complete them and fax them out to the different agencies. It wasn't a difficult task but these are very important so we have guests from other countries who might tel other friends how nice of a place we have.
This to me was exciting and it could be something to look into after I graduate to maybe work for one of these agencies.
