Cheap Myrtle Beach Vacations and How To Survive The Time Share Trap
from: Dallas WilliamsVacations at Myrtle Beach can be extremely expensive.Because of
its popularity and all of the attractions that it offers, Myrtle
Beach has become one of the most expensive places to visit.I
once read that one square foot of land on the ocean front is
worth approximately $20,000.A young family today ( with or
without kids ) can find it almost impossible to visit for more
than a couple of days.However,with a little advance planning and
use of the information contained in this article,you CAN
vacation at Myrtle Beach for very little money.I'll not only
show you how to stay at nice hotels but I'll also show you how
to eat at the nicest restaurants and be entertained nightly at
the finest theatres. The way to do all of the above is through
the use of Time Share tours.I know what you're thinking," Oh no,
no way am I going to sit through one of those things".Unless
you're loaded, (I'm talking financially not alcohol loaded),
please hear me out.I had the same negative attitude until I was
employed (for a short time) by a time share company.I think
timeshares in my opinion,are a good idea, IF you use them
regularly.The problem is, most people can't afford to take
enough time from work to make them worthwhile.Once you have them
paid for, alot of people actually forget they even have them.I
found this so hard to believe when I was interviewing people for
the timeshare tours.If you will take the following advice and
plan in advance, you'll not only enjoy a fun-filled extremely
nice vacation but you may even be able to put a few bucks back
in your pockets.Your kids will love you for it. I am in no way
trying to promote any hotel or any other attraction, I am simply
offering advice as to how you can take your family on a nice
vacation with very little funds.If you click on any of the links
in this article, they will take you directly to the merchants
page.There you will see what promotions they are currently
offering.That being said, let's get started !!!
The timeshare business in Myrtle Beach is an EXTREMELY fierce
and competitive business.The companies offer big bucks in order
to get potential buyers to take the tours.You can find these
opportunities either by calling the companies in advance or by
going into any mall, Welcome Center and even some
restaurants.You really can't avoid the timeshare marketers.They
simply find a person that looks like a tourist and simply tries
to start up a conversation with them, eventually getting around
to offering them everything just to take a 90 minute tour.By the
way, when I said,"looks like a tourist",I didn't mean anything
negative by it, I simply meant people that were sunburned, had a
camera around their neck, looks lost,etc.
If you are already in Myrtle Beach, as I said earlier, you can
stop at Welcome Centers,Malls and you'll see the little Kiosks (
sales booths ).As you walk by, they'll say anything just to get
you to stop and talk to them.They'll eventually offer you
something to go on a timeshare tour.Now, keep this in mind.The
marketer is allotted a certain dollar amount per tour.What I
mean is, they are allowed to give away cash,meals or attraction
tickets in exchange for your participation in the tour.For
example, I was allotted $200 per tour.I offer you and your
family tickets to an attraction and a meal afterwards.If this
offer cost me $100, as a result I would make $100 for booking
the tour.I'm sure all companies have different budgets but I
know they're all in the same ballpark.What I mean is Don't just
settle for their first offer.Most of them will at-least offer
you $100's worth of cash or attraction tickets.Employee turnover
in the timeshare sales industry is huge, therefore, there is
always an ample supply of new marketers and these people are the
ones that will give away almost their entire cash allotment,
just to book a tour and get their numbers.So don't settle for
the first offer, you can get alot more.
Once you are booked and arrive for your tour, you have to
provide a picture ID, a credit or debit card.Some even accept a
blank check.They will ask you your combined income.It has to be
at or above their requirement.They'll let you know what that
amount would be.Remember, anything they ask you, you are not
asked for proof so you can say anything and they wouldn't know
the difference.Also remember, the salesman wants you to take
that tour so he'll go out of his way making sure that you'd
qualify.If you say you are married, you have to have your spouse
present.Their whole sales approach is to sell you NOW ,so they
make sure you don't have an excuse to tell them that you'll come
back tomorrow, because they know, once you leave no-one ever
comes back.
Another Huge thing to remember is that they will try to sell you
based on your emotions.For example, they may say, Mr.John Doe,
don't you think your wife and kids deserve for you to furnish
them with a nice vacation?Don't get sucked in by that.They will
really dwell on your emotions always involving your wife and
kids.Legally you owe them 90-120 minutes,depending on which
company you sign with.Be very careful not only as to what you
say but also what your "body language" says.They are trained to
look for "buying signals", such as asking questions, really
getting involved in the sales presentation.Unless you are really
sincere about purchasing a timeshare, do NOT ask any questions
pertaining to the timeshare offer.This shows interest on your
part and will help him to keep you even longer.Instead, do
things like repeatedly looking at your watch.(This one really
drives them nuts).Ask your spouse questions about anything
except that timeshare.I am not saying to be rude however if you
show any interest whatsoever you'll just be there longer.If you
do as I say you may actually be done alot quicker than the 90
minutes.They do not want to be tied down to anyone that
obviously isn't at all interested in buying.He'll want to get
rid of you and find another tour.After the salesman sees he's
not doing any good he'll then ask his supervisor to give it a
try, so don't be surprised by this.This only takes a few
minutes.Remember to "Just Say No" to all of the above and it
will all be "painless"
I know this is not for everyone but if you'd like to take your
family on a nice vacation instead of cleaning out your garage
during your week off and you have little or no money this is the
way to do it.
Remember this, They know that 1 out of 10 prospects will make a
purchase, therefore they are willing to pay big in order to have
someone to talk to.They know it's a numbers game, they are
willing to pay you so don't feel bad.They invented the game,
they made the rules, so "Play the Game".
