Timeshare Presentations: How to survive?

Have you ever attended a timeshare presentation? I wish him ever attending one. It's traumatic experience sitting through a time-share presentation. Compare buying a used car from a dealer, which is even more frustrating experience as more money is at stake here. What is a timeshare presentation? It is nothing more than a sales pitch timeshare by force the companies to individuals to buy their timeshares. It begins with an invitation offering an expensive gift in exchange for attending the presentation. Now you go to the presentation of thinking that there is no harm in attending and you get a gift also, in return, but you realize that have made the biggest mistake of life only when you sit through the presentation painful.
The expensive gift turns out to be a cheat and that is under great pressure sales tactics. The presentation usually last for ninety minutes and can continue and, in some cases. After the presentation, the seller is around you and ask if you have any questions. They go to the point where, literally, pressurization. They want you to either make a commitment or sign a document before leaving the presentation. When you say no to constant him, the manager approach and offer a good deal. Sometimes it is very difficult to resist the temptation after being offered such great deals. But you have to be mentally prepared to say no to them at any cost. Tell them clearly that you have already spent valuable time and could not spare any more time. Let's say you have an appointment with somebody and you have to leave immediately. And do not forget to take your gift before leaving after the presentation of everything that was why he attended the presentation.The seller and managers do their best to convince him to sign some papers, offering many offerings , but we should stick to your resolution not to fall into the trap of saying constantly in his mind that "no, I can not afford to buy a timeshare," and "I will be able to make payments every month. Educadamente say "no" to any offer but the appearance is attractive. They also say that you need time to decide, make contact with their number or fax number and say that you choose to report on its decision. They also say that you will not tolerate any courtesy calls or emails. You can also tell them that you already have a friends or family members in that place and time it is not necessary to buy a timeshare. Another of the reasons that can give to escape them is that only came to the presentation for the gift or you can say that you just wanted to learn about timeshare and it is too early to make a decision about buying a timeshare. You can also say that you are not one of the frequent vacationers and would be able to vacation year after year, and even if you go on vacation do not like to go to the same place each year. Also say that you are not in the financial position to invest in anything, now or in the near future. We have seen it all depends on our mental configuration to sit through a presentation and still survive.

Most people would not want to attend a timeshare presentations on their vacations. Resorts know this and give away incentives to tourists to attract them to their sales floors. some of the gifts they give away are:

Free breakfast
Tours around the city
Fishing trips
Flying certificate
3 Nights, 4 Days stays
Discounts during the stay if client is staying at the resort.

If you are not interested in purchasing a timeshare, do not attend a timeshare presentation! The free gifts are not worth wasting a day of your vacation, and putting your hard earned money at risk of being scammed by the timeshare salespeople.
