Has anyone ';attended a 2 hour time share pitch and got free disney world tickets/discount hotel?

Is this worth it?What's the catch?Has anyone ';attended a 2 hour time share pitch and got free disney world tickets/discount hotel?
you got to understand why they offer the tickets. if you know what you're getting yourself into to begin with and know how to go about it you'll be fine. here's the gig:





these timeshare companies pay out of pocket for those tickets, and they pay the marketing rep who got you to go there before anybody even buys anything. those tickets aren't cheap. the reason they do that is nobody knows who's going to buy or not.... now you got to go to one of the marketing reps. they ussually take a $20 deposit from you and offer you 2 disney tickets for $25. now you have to go to the resort for the presentation. they will feed you breakfast (continental and it's not that great considering they feed about 1000 families a day) if you're picky about your food skip it tell them you ate already if you're on a budget... enjoy!





then you meet your presenter the easiest and less stressfull way to go about it is to agree and like everything they say and show you. let them know you're on a time restraint and always look for what's next. don't let them dwell on anything just ok and I understand ...etc. cool what's next yada yada..... now you get to the back end, they show you a price (outrageos at that) can't afford it (this is where the pressure starts if you let it. ) they will bring a manager to you and try to sell you again miraculously the price just dropped to half, then a quarter then they're practically trying to shove it down your throat. you're almost there. just stand your ground tell them no. you liked it, but Don't want it you're just here for your tickets. at taht pint you should be about 2 hours into it and siply and politely let them know you held your end of the deal where here over 90 minutes and you just want your tickets now. people buy under pressure! fact is 1of 10 people will buy a timeshare under the pressure. you not expressing any pressure let them know you're not buying they will realize you're not the one out of 10 and they will let you go with your tickets. if you go in there knowing this you'll be a successfull timeshare taker!.. i like half of oralando have worked at one of the timeshare companies and have taken my fare share of timeshare presentations from vegas to miami it's a good way to save some $$$$ on vacation if you're just willing to sacrifice a morning. plan accordingly!Has anyone ';attended a 2 hour time share pitch and got free disney world tickets/discount hotel?
I actually used to work in florida, getting people to go to these timeshare presentations. i would tell them ';if you're interested in buying into timeshare, youre welcome to. and if you're not, just tell the sales person you only came for the tickets!';





you do need to qualify. Most companies won't sign you up if you're single. you have to be over 18, married, your significant other with you, and attending the presentation as well, make around $50,000 combined a year. that kind of thing.





usually they take a $20 cash deposit. you have to show up to the presentation to get the $20 back. then you sit through a ';90 minute'; presentation, the other guys are right. it usually takes 2-5 hours and you have to say NO NO NO NO NO and it gets annoying. but if you don't have a lot of money, you WILL save on tickets. you will get free or heavily discounted tickets.





most ppl who are signing you up for the tour don't care, just tell them you only want the tickets! b/c they get commission for signing you up, whether you buy the timeshare or not. so most of them dont care if you only want the free stuff. they will help you choose the package that will benefit you the most. Just make sure you show up for the presentation, sit through the whole thing, then politely tell the salesperson that it's not something you can afford.





if you have the money, it's not worth it. you'll only save from $75 to a couple hundred. if that's the case, just pay for the tickets at a ';discount ticket store'; instead of at the gate (you'll save from $5 to $20) and enjoy yourself. have fun!!
DON'T DO IT!


For starters when you go on vacation, you are supposed to be enjoying your vacation. Not hassaling with people. I don't recall free tickets but I do remember parents getting a big discount. Most people get fooled into thinking that you go on a nice happy tour for the time mentioned, and then your off to enjoy your day.........wrong! Here's what they don't tell you. Now the tour itself is two hours. Once the 2 hour tour is over, a person will come to sell you on the timeshare. And they will go on and on and on and on. This process will be 1 hour 15 minutes at the least. And thats only if you say ';No!'; the first 50 times. When you say no, they will keep dropping the price and asking you if you would be able to afford the new lower price. There just seems to be no end and sight with those people.If you are extremely low on money, then it may be worth it. But if you have the money, then enjoy your vacation!
HELLO YES I DID IT A WORD OF ADVISE IF YOU HAVE BEEN AND DONE EVERYTHING YOU WANTED TO DO AT DISNEY AND ARE WITH ALOT OF PEOPLE AND WANT SOME DOWN TIME OK DO IT, IT CAN BE CONSIDERED A BREAK. YOU DONT HAVE TO BUY ANYTHING AND LOOKING AT THE ROOMS ARE NEAT AND YOU GET A ICECREAM TREAT AT THE END AND ALOT OF NEAT STUFF FOR SOVENEIRS IF YOU WANT THEM. I GOT BOOKS AND GIFT CARDS AND FAMILY PHOTO AND SO FORTH HERE IS THE THING I CAN GET TO WDW OFTEN AND STAY FOR AT LEAST 8 DAYS SO AFTER A COUPLE DAYS I AM READY FOR DOWN TIME I GO EARLY IN THE MORNING BEFORE MY FAMILY GETS UP I AM AN EARLY BIRD. SO GO FOR IT IF THIS YOUR FIRST TRIP AND THIS IS NOT YOUR THING AVOID THIS ITS NOT WORTH IT.
its typically a 90 min presentation, we have done it and gotten tickets and discount hotel stay. The catch is these people are trained to sell and will no take no for an answer, its worth it but just be firm and say no no no!!!
I would imagine its hard sell, may take longer than they say and it takes time out of your vacation.
yes if you do the 90 min tour you get free tix but you might be there for a while.
