Let's explore the benefits of planning group tours and travel!
Greater opportunity.
Because there are often so many different elements of a group trip, consumers realize early in the process how the knowledge of a professional would ease stress and help execute a successful experience.
More income.
More travelers and components (i.e. airfare, service fees, lodging, excursions, etc.) mean more opportunities for higher commissions.
Referral business.
When travel professionals do an excellent job planning all the details and remembering "the little things," travelers will tell others, which can significantly grow a professional's opportunity for referrals.
Repeat travelers.
When planning a trip for several people at once versus one unit, it opens the door for you to significantly expand your network, foster more relationships and build opportunity for repeat business.
