Below you will find a list of the most frequently asked questions in regards to joining the travel program. If there are any other questions you may have; please feel free to contact me via emall; hello@thebespoketraveller.net

WHAT MADE ME WANT TO JOIN?

Friends have always asked me advice on where to go and I love sharing the latest places I’d read about or deals that I’d seen, as well as sharing my own travel experiences. But obviously, I didn’t get paid to share this advice….so really, I was a travel agent working for
free! When I learned that commission was already built into everything you book and there was a way to get that commission back, I was very keen to learn more. Now I book the EXACT same type of holiday, except now - commission is paid to me. I also benefit from with preferred rates reserved especially for agents and I'm sure you'll agree that with the steadily increasing cost of living, every penny counts for all of us.

With this programme, you become an independent travel agent and you can just do it to book your own trips but you can also book those of others too (and earn yourself some nice commission on the side!) There’s a separate side (the marketing side) of the business which is also open to you with more income streams but is by no means obligatory.

IS THIS A BIG COMMITMENT?

One of the many wonderful things about this
opportunity is that you are in complete control of
every element of your business structure. You can
decide to use it to simply book your own travel, to
book travel for friends, family and select clients OR
to go wild and expand your business to invite
others to join while reaping the rewards at every
level and opening more income streams.
There are no expectations of you when you join;
no targets, no point system, no quotas.
You can take advantage of the commission /
preferential rates purely for your own travel
bookings or expand it out to become an agent and
/ or a referring business. You can easily fit this in
around current commitments, being a stay at
home parent or a full time employee. Or you
can build it up to be your main gig - the choice is
yours and the opportunity are endless.

DO I NEED A BIG SOCIAL MEDIA FOLLOWING?

Many people have started this will little or no social media following! There is no obligation to share this opportunity with others but once you see the benefits, you’ll want to tell everyone, just like I find myself doing! Should you want to learn how to increase your social media knowledge; we have free high level training in that area, with examples, content plans and training academies you can watch in your own time too.

DO I NEED TRAVEL EXPERIENCE

Not at all! The best thing is that full FREE training is available, and you can dive into as much
of it as you want. If you fancy becoming a ‘specialist’ in Disney, or Dubai or the Maldives for example, you can get all the training on that but it’s up to you as to how much training you attend. Also, you are fully supported on WhatsApp with any questions you may have, at any
time.

HOW DO I GET PAID COMMISSION?

Commissions are paid 30 - 90 days after travel has completed. Once the host company has received the commission, it is split 70/30 (70% to you &; they keep 30%) before sending over to you. (This is standard across the travel industry) Once you have earned £3500 in commissions, the split is raised to 80/20 (80% to you & they keep 20%).

WHAT IF I CHANGE MY MIND?

There is no contract meaning that you can leave at
any time. If you cancel in the first 30 days you get a
30 day full money back guarantee. After the first
month, you can cancel at anytime and payments
stop immediately.

IS THERE A LOT TO LEARN?

THIS ALL SOUNDS TOO GOOD
TO BE TRUE IS IT LEGIT?!

There is some mandatory training which takes 90 minutes and is a series of videos you can watch in your own time, then you will be ATOL and ABTA licensed to book & sell holidays. Even if it’s just for yourself you still need to follow this training. If you want to create a business for yourself, we have
created an incredible training vault with a step by step guide on how to create and build the most successful business, so you'll have everything you need in one place to work through with support on hand, every step of the way.

That's exactly what I thought.
I’m quite sceptical about things but after doing in depth research and as well as gaining from all the benefits myself, I wish I had started doing it sooner. The host
business is 30 years old and is a member of ABTA and ATOL. Also, such suppliers as Virgin, Mr & Mrs Smith, Inghams, Disney etc wouldn’t work with us if it wasn’t legit. There really is nothing to lose by trying it out - yet so much to gain!

There are two businesses - It’s totally up to you if you want to be a travel agent for yourself, or focus on building the business side, or both. If you book a holiday for yourself or others you get simply get paid the commission. There is an optional affiliate opportunity but it’s a completely separate business and there are other revenue streams within that, but it’s up to you if you want to explore how that works.

IS THIS A NETWORK MARKETING COMPANY?

HOW SOON AFTER JOINING, CAN I
BOOK A HOLIDAY?

HOW DO CUSTOMERS PAY?

You’re not responsible for taking any money or handling any cash. They would pay via a secure payment link and you are shown exactly how to send this to them We also have back office support to help if needed so you’re not on your own at any stage.
