Unless air travel developed and wealth increased, the increase in

leisure would be impossible. Throughout the world, hours o f work

have declined. The working week has become shorter. The number

of public holidays and the amount of paid leave have increased. Like

most service industries, tourism is labour-intensive. The range o f

tourism jobs is very high. Many people are involved in public relations.

I f there were no specialists involved in public relations, it

would be difficult to promote tourism.

Public Relations (PR) is often confused with advertising. It is,

however, a distinct branch o f communication and involves informing

and educating the public about the activities or philosophy o f an

organization. Some companies have their own PR departments,

while others appoint consultants or agencies specializing in the job.

The keyword is communicating the company’s point o f view to various

target groups, in an effective manner in order that a favourable

impression should be formed. PR is, thus, a powerful management

function and a serious business activity. It docs not mean merely

building relations with different groups.

The importance o f PR is growing by the day. Both tour operators

and travel agencies have realized that advertising must be supplemented

with an effective PR. This helps in keeping close to the

customer to satisfy needs and anticipate changes in customer demand.

Many companies have recently launched customer clubs

through which they keep in contact with their customers, take their

advice and inform them about services. A happy customer will most

likely make repeated purchases, so an effective PR makes a good

business sense too. It is a means to win customer loyalty.

The functions o f PR can be described as follows:

174


a) Press Relations: One objective o f the PR manager is to ensure

that the company get written about favourably in the press. For this,

relations with media correspondents have to be maintained. They

have to be provided with information and handouts.

b) Communications: It is necessary that customers know what

they are doing in the company or plan to do in the future. Misunderstandings

may otherwise arise which may affect the business in

the long run.

c) Lobbying: Effective PR can influence public policy. An important

function o f the PR professional is to maintain close relations

and convince influential people in various walks o f life.

d) Counselling: Doubts have to be removed from the minds o f

people through meetings and counselling, which will help keep a direct

contact and not let doubts remain which may have an adverse

impact on the company.
