EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES AT TOUR BUSters!
*Vice President: After 27 years in the motorcoach tour business I am seeking a business partner to share the ownership responsibilities with. This is a hands-on roll up your sleeves opportunity, full time position in the office. A substantial investment is required. As a stock transfer is involved, the transaction is subject to the approval of the State Office of Securities.
*Tour Director: Our Tour Directors have responsibility for managing our tours from start to finish. The Tour Director plays an extremely important role in the success of the tour. Must be likable, dependable, good with detail and genuinely concerned that every passenger enjoys the trip. It is also a sales position encouraging people to come back and join us on another tour. We used to have our own in house training program but it was extremely time consuming and has been discontinued. We now hire graduates of the International Tour Management Institute exclusively. ITMI offers an extraordinary comprehensive training program that we cannot match. Graduates are trained to deal with just about any situation and have the professional skills that we want on the road. In fact, we will be slowly replacing all of our current Tour Directors with ITMI graduates until we have 100% ITMI graduates on the staff. For more information on ITMI, go to itmitourtraining.com. Tour Directors are paid on a daily basis while managing tours. For overnight tours, we cover overnight hotel expenses. By having all of our Tour Directors trained by ITMI, we will have everyone trained professionally and we can operate our tours in a consistent manner.
*Tour Planner/Reservations Manager: A full time job planning upcoming tours, booking and confirming tour packages and tour planning research. Also supervises tour reservations, client payments, confirmations and invoicing. Must be an ITMI graduate.
*Travel Agent: Did you know there are no travel agencies in Falmouth, Cumberland, Yarmouth or Freeport?

*Cruise Counselor: This is also a desk rental opportunity for an experienced Cruise Counselor to specialize in selling cruises to individuals and groups out of our Falmouth office. Great for an individual looking to share office space with us and benefit from our substantial customer bas
*Step-on Guides: You can work with the cruise ships that visit the area and motorcoach tours from out of state looking for local people to "step-on" their motorcoach and offer a professional narrated tour of the area, whether it by Portland, Kennebunkport, the seacoast region of southern Maine/Portsmouth or other areas, it's a great way to have a ton of fun and pick up some extra spending money. We offer complete training and an extensive mailing list of tour companies throughout the United States for you to offer your services to.

*Reservation Agent: Part time opening in our Worcester, MA branch office.
* Staff Philanthropologist: TOUR BUSters! is the biggest contributor to the Lids for Kids charity, raises money for local theatres and also supports the Center for Perfect Harmony, an environmental education organization. This is a volunteer position assisting with promoting these organizations and supervising fundraising efforts to support them.
*Business Opportunity: Own your own tour agency. You can sell our tours on a commission basis and offer your own tours as well. By partnering with us and our 27 years experience a lot of the risk will be minimalized. A $10,000 investment required to get started, you can sell our tours with a 10% commission, add your own tours (we'll help you plan them), we'll give you 600 names and addresses to get you started, we'll also give you a $1,000 credit toward any of our tours so you'll be able to keep the first $1000 of our tours that you book and more. A great way to get into the tour business with very little risk and your investment is considered a business expense that will benefit you with your taxes. It benefits us as quite often we don't fill our tours to capacity so there is almost always a chance for someone to help us sell them on a commission basis and we pass up many, many opportunities to offer more tours when our schedule gets maxed out, so there is plenty of room for someone to offer tours. Call now, you could be in business for your self this afternoon!
