As a holiday representative, you will be required to conduct welcome meetings ever so often, which could be every other day or it could be every day depending on the amount of clients/ customers coming into the resort that you are currently working at. This will vary depending on whether it is peak season or off peak.

Welcome meetings consist of all the information that the guests need to know before they begin their journey. You will provide the guests with all the necessary information regarding their holiday trip along with the details on the excursions that are available to them while vacationing. A holiday representative needs to have some basic selling skills.

In order to earn more money, you will sell car rental (car hire), telephone cards, daily excursions, and other products that are offered by the touring company that you are employed by. You earn commission off of everything you are able to sell in addition to your fixed monthly income.
