I have found a local travel agency and I was planning on writing my HL Business IA on it. I wanted to explore the effect of online competition and how they can counteract it. My teacher told me that I would have to arrange some kind of meeting and talk with the manager, since it is HL. I went into the agency today and asked if I could arrange a little talk and they said its no problem. The man said any day is fine and asked if I would be willing to do it tomorrow, I said “Sure” but didnt consider that I would have to plan for the discussion, now it is kind of last minute but I would really appreciate any assistance.
Question is: What kind of questions should I ask the owner during the talk? Also do you have any other tips/advice to follow?
