How can you get a free trip for Spring Break? If you are a college student, then it may be easier than you think.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • college campus
  • flyers
  1. Step 1

    Find a company that offers free trips to campus reps. Try Sun Splash Tours, Student Travel Services or Student City. These suppliers specialize in spring break travel for college students and have put together packages that can save time and money. You may also earn extra money if you exceed the minimum amount of participants.

  2. Step 2

    Ask for flyers from the suppliers to post around campus. The companies provide them for free and are willing to print your contact information on them for you. They are well designed to attract attention to the packages they offer. Find places that get high traffic so the flyers are visible and more effective. The goal is to have them seen by as many people possible.

  3. Step 3

    Join and/or visit groups that might be interested in traveling together on a spring break trip. Fraternities and sororities as well as social clubs would be great target markets.

Tips & Warnings
  • Start with people that you know. Email your friends and post the information on your website if you have one.
  • Post and distribute as many flyers as possible. The more effort you put into it, the better chance you will have to making your goals.
  • Check with your college campus or location where you wish to put the flyers before posting. Some have strict rules and policies.
