We found an interesting description of the timeshare process on its website Vacation Ownership. Emphasis is placed solidly on the timeshare experience developers must describe and sell in order to attract and close contracts that represent periods of use in newly completed developments. Direct one on one sales is the approach timeshare sales organizations take to sell their product.
The article briefly describes the challenges developers of timeshare resorts have convincing travelers, who want a simple holiday experience to take time to understand the more complex and higher value timeshare product. The article continues to point out that high pressure sales tactics adopted by many in the industry have undermined the image of the industry.
