How to persuade parents and the elderly not to buy low-priced tour groups?

Now many travel websites or travel agencies have launched so-called low-cost Hong Kong tours, low-cost Yunnan tours and other tourism products, specifically for the elderly. Because the old people now lack understanding of Internet information, they are easily fooled, but usually their children can't hear them. Here are some tips on how to persuade parents and the elderly not to buy low-priced tour groups.

A few years ago, I went on a low-cost tour. I felt that the longest time in my life was not one month before the college entrance examination, a few days before the postgraduate entrance examination, hospitalization after surgery, and discharge ... It was really those days when I traveled to Hong Kong.

There will be a gap in a low-cost tour to Hong Kong. The same products are 2w in Hong Kong, 4k in Macau and 0.5k in Zhuhai, so you have already consumed them before. Don't go in again, it will make you uncomfortable.

Be nervous all the way, always be on guard against thieves. You will recommend this to me in the future. Should I go to the shopping store? Should I buy something? I'm struggling psychologically. As a result, all I thought about was these things all the way, and I was in no mood to play. I have been on the road all day.

How to discourage parents and low-priced groups?

Last night, someone made a WeChat Xiaobian, and when they came up, they sent a string of exclamation points: Tell me! ! ! How to persuade parents to stop traveling with a group at a low price!

Some time ago, they reported an 899 yuan tour group to Hong Kong, but I didn't listen to any suggestions, and now I am lost by the tour guide! Lian! Yes!

I have a mother who likes to sign up for tour groups blindly. When she signed up for a low-cost tour group in Yunnan, I tried my best to stop her. Finally, I let her go. Originally, I thought she had experienced it and knew the pain. As a result, she said that the trip was good and the tour guide was so sweet, which was simply my mean heart!

That's right, because she bought 30 thousand pieces of jade and silver herself and asked me if I wanted it. I said no, she said, don't talk nonsense, I already swiped my card.

Me: Didn't you say that you signed up for a low-priced tour and finally spent tens of thousands of dollars? What is a low-priced group?

My mom: It's not the same thing. She bought good things at a discount and made a profit!

Me: This is absolutely false! ! !

My mother: The tour guide said that the market supervision in Yunnan is very strict. Although it may be expensive, you must never buy fakes, otherwise you can sue!

Please, jade is jade. Where else can it be fake? Besides, if it's ridiculously expensive, it's fake, okay?

And my mother doesn't even know where to inspect the goods and where to sue!

But that time, no matter what I said, she wouldn't listen, and finally said, I'll go next time. It's up to you.

However, after several moves, I still found the key to convince my mother and won this victory!

Detailed operation process:

Step 1: Let them have a basic concept of travel expenses:

She took the initiative to show me a poster of Zhang Huali, such as flying together, staying in a luxury hotel, a group meal with eight dishes and one soup and so on

The configuration is very high-end, and the travel agency is engaged in activities, as long as 999 yuan! If you don't buy it, you will lose!

At this time, I will calculate an account for her and see what the cost of DIY is.

Let's check the fare online first. The round-trip air ticket is the lowest 1000+!

In addition, the tour guide is also a whole package, not living in the basement, not eating bran and swallowing vegetables, not shopping. How does he pay the tour guide driver? Or a pure play group? Just give her a chance to play!

Step 2: Tell them how the low-priced group set a trap:

At this time, my mother will do the second move-

Travel itinerary, who took out the tour, told me: Look, they said that shopping is not included, and there is no time to go shopping all the way. It's all scenic spots! And live in XX hotel, which is a four-star hotel! The group meal is eight dishes and one soup, which is extremely luxurious. I will break them one by one.

go shopping

Cheating papers don't write "cheating" on their foreheads, and shopping spots don't write "shopping" on travel itinerary.

For example, Miao Village, Dong Village, Silk Culture Museum and Tea Culture Museum are all shopping spots covered by scenic spots!

Accommodation and group dining

Yes, in some travel itineraries, it is really written to stay in a hotel. Check online, yo, the best hotel in this area, not bad! However, please note that it is often followed by "or hotels of the same level", which is intriguing.

Take a five-star hotel as an example. When I advertised, I said that I would stay in Bulgari, and the price was 5000. Finally, it gives you a similar hotel-Westin at a price of 1 0,000. This is not a loss! Four-star hotels are worse. Living in the suburbs is a must!

Not to mention group meals, "eight dishes and one soup" also depends on what vegetables, cucumbers, melon seeds and peanuts are available. Finally, eating one or two meat dishes is good for you.

Step 3: Let them know the real shady low-priced group.

Then, my mother went on to make a move: What happened to shopping? It is not easy for a tour guide to bring a tour group home, and he admits that he will get a little kickback. I had a good time and bought something to entertain them. What happened?

Tenderness routines, full routines!

They won't tell you that the average travel agency can withdraw up to 80% from the shopping point, and the shopping point itself has to make money. What kind of goods will tourists buy?

They won't tell you that the worst monthly salary for a low-end tour group is 100 thousand, and the worst monthly salary is 20 thousand to 30 thousand Is it necessary to rely on thousands of people with pensions to sympathize with her?

Step 4: Show them some news videos:

My mother confessed: then I won't buy it! She can force me with a knife rest around her neck.

The fact is, the means they use is worse than holding the neck of the knife rest.

I also don't talk nonsense, just dig out the 5-minute video of the Yunnan tour guide who exploded on the Internet. (I won't post it here. Search for it yourself if you want to see it. )

A lot of age, can you afford these young guides?

Am I not worried about her safety?

Step 5: Show them the pleasure and dignity of free travel;

After listening to my suggestion, my mother will look at me sadly and say, what do you want me to do? I don't understand this myself!

So, I really asked for annual leave to take her and dad to play.

I can master the rhythm of my trip by myself, and I won't torture her too quickly or make her feel uncomfortable too slowly. Check the local shopping guide to satisfy her obsessive-compulsive disorder in buy buy and make sure it's worth it!

Without a tour guide bossing her around, she didn't have to sleep and pee all the time and enjoyed a truly dignified trip. To complete this most important step, my mother was really brainwashed by me.

The last step:

It is important to persuade parents not to join the low-priced group.

If children blindly blame their parents for not knowing anything, their self-esteem will not allow them to admit that they have been cheated, but will stubbornly stay with you.

Therefore, don't stand on the commanding heights and point at your parents, showing that you are "smarter" than them.

This kind of communication is inefficient.

We should calm our posture, tell them the truth clearly, don't give up communication with parents, and be sure to find out what their real worries are and whether they are worried about spending money. Or just because you don't care enough?

The most important thing is to take them to feel and prove to them what is really "good"!

There are fewer and fewer elders who want to be cheated, and there are more and more brave and free hot dads and hot moms.

Standing on the United front with parents, not the opposite, is the right way to solve the problem! Take your parents on a free trip when you have time.
