April 12, 2007 (Press Release) --
They say the luckiest people in the world are those who love their jobs and don't dread going to work in the morning – and many of these people can be found in the travel industry.
Helping people to plan, book and enjoy their holidays is often one of the main draws to the travel and tourism industries, although there are also those who simply love travelling, or are specialised in certain areas - from tour guides to climbing experts. And those in the high-octane world of adventure travel are among those who love their jobs more than most.
Adventure travel is fast becoming one of the most popular styles of vacation or holiday for younger people in the UK and US. Of course, older people enjoy the adrenaline rush of an action-packed trip as well, but the younger end of the spectrum is the more likely to tackle a holiday involving fire eating, white water rafting, scuba diving, water skiing, abseiling, caving and many other activities associated with adventure travel.
And it is certainly picking up speed in more ways than one. Increasing numbers of travellers are heading around the world in search of more thrills, and the people making it happen are becoming more and more in demand.
Experts feel that anybody hoping to get involved in running a travel franchise would do well to take advantage of the current boom in interest, fuelled in some way by the surge in healthy-living and exercise ideals in the consciousness of the public, with millions of people wishing to get some excitement and stay healthy by using their bodies, as well as getting a tan on holiday.
Setting up a franchise is one of the best ways of capitalising on the market, especially according to NatWest, which claims some 93 per cent of UK franchises are making a profit. Taking a gamble with a rope on a mountain side is one thing, but gambling with your finances and livelihood is another – and franchising cuts that risk substantially.
Dan Archer of the British Franchise Association explained: "The franchise sector remains a significant employer and last year alone created 7,000 more jobs in the UK.
"While we continue to hear about redundancies in the media, it seems that franchising is not only helping people realise their dream of self-employment but also has an impact on job creation, helping to plug the gap created by corporate redundancies."
So whether you're a fan of surfing in the Caribbean, pot-holing in Wales or sky-diving in New Zealand – or even just want to make somebody else happy by sending them there – the adventure travel sector is the ideal market to enter and begin setting up your business.
