Sales Approach: Through a referral, I received a call from a retired couple who were interested in planning a trip of a lifetime to celebrate their 50th anniversary. Their top picks? Costa Rica, Fiji, or Tahiti for at least a 7- to 8-day resort stay. After peaking with Liz Coleman [PGC’s Director of Sales for the Northeast and Midwest] for over an hour, I was convinced a Paul Gauguin cruise was the perfect fit for my clients! I contacted them with the idea of cruising the Society Islands and Tuamotus for 10 nights aboard a luxury cruise ship, and they were sold right away. It was right within their budget, and their trip was everything they dreamed of and more. They can't wait to plan their next dream vacation!
