Are you yearning for a side hustle or career where you’re the one making the decisions?
Do you want to help others, build a business and enjoy unique perks?
Becoming an independent travel agent might be your perfect path.
Your Role
Imagine having a flexible schedule, a supportive network, and the freedom to work anywhere.
Consider an unlimited earning potential from commission when you book travel for friends, family and the public.
You help people create memorable experiences while earning a great income and enjoying great travel benefits.
As an independent travel agent, you’re self-employed and your own boss.
You’ll craft custom itineraries, build supplier relationships, and become a trusted travel resource, all while expanding your knowledge and skills.
To stand out, you can specialise in niches like honeymoons or adventure travel or be the go-to girl/guy for all kinds of holidays. You decide where to recommend and book for your customers. The world is your oyster. (sorry for the cliche)
Getting Started
There is no need for a passport full of stamps. Passion for travel and helping others is critical.
The detailed mandatory training explains everything you need to know to begin searching for flights, holidays, and events.
If you have previous sales experience, that would be great, but if you still need to, the training will soon get you on track. You’ll be surprised who you will be talking about their travels with.
Start with friends and family, crafting detailed itineraries and anticipating their needs. Word will soon spread about how you met their needs and what a great holiday you planned and booked.
Top Perks
- Independence: You control your work environment. To begin with, treat this as a side hustle or part-time job.
- Income Potential: Earn through commissions, fees and even commissions for bringing more people into your business. The extra income will help improve your lifestyle.
- Choose your hours: You decide how many hours you want to put in.
