You may be thinking that traveling jobs just consist of selling vacations. Actually there are other traveling jobs that consist of salesman jobs or merchant-type jobs. People that are franchise managers may get to travel as well.
If you decide to become a salesman, you may find yourself traveling from one location to another to sell a particular product. Sometimes (for the most part) you are not really traveling far away. For the most part, you would travel to neighboring states to try and sell whatever it is that you are advertising.
On the other hand, maybe you created a product. For instance, take a look at Gatorade. It once was a drink created for the Florida Gators football team so that they wouldn’t dehydrate as easily during football games. Eventually, it made its way around the United States and is now used all over, even across seas in Olympic Games and more. Because of a dream by doctors in the University of Florida, many athletes (and others) are benefiting.
Inventors are travelers because they are looking for someone to buy their ideas so that they can make a fortune. They may even make it into a traveling sales job and sell the product or idea that they have come up with. Either way, they are earning a living and traveling while they do it.
Another prime example of a great traveling sales job is when a man during the Great Depression had a wonderful recipe that he would feed travelers. What was once only a dream a man had turned into a franchise that has traveled worldwide. Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) has been around many years and was sold for $2 million in 1964. Because someone loved the taste of the batter recipe, they believed that it could sell worldwide, and it has started the same way with many other franchises.
Then we have to look at world-wide traveling jobs. Take for instance an airplane attendant. They have a chance to see a lot of different countries, depending on if they do domestic or international flights. Either way, they are constantly traveling. With this type of job, you have to be quite personable because you are dealing with customers constantly.
Let’s have a look at the travel industry a little more closely. How about tourism?
With this type of business, you will find yourself traveling around the world and teaching others about certain landscapes and landmarks along the way. Not only will you get to learn about these things, you will get to teach others about them as well.
