Hi..! I am new to this online community and I am seeking for some help/guidance. I would like to start a Home Based Travel Agency on a part time basis. Is there any one out there that has experience in this kind of business that can provide some guidance or share experiences about this type of business and best practices on how to actually star it? Thanks in advance for your help.

I just opened my own on-line travel agency. My husband and I are loving it! We had $1500 in travel booked on our site the first week and the tax benefits are great! The type of business we are involved with is a turn key program. Customers book themselves very similar to Travelocity, Orbitz etc.. Only we are able to offer a wider range of services to book including a wedding registry where guest can log on and contribute to a couples honeymoon. I would be happy to either send you a free CD/DVD explaining the company and program or direct you to a place on the web to get more information.

Hi,
I am with Traverus. They have a great program that offers anyone the opportunity to become a full travel agent. You get your license and you also have the opportunity to help other people. You will make upto 90% on travel booked through your site and much more when people sign up to become there own travel agent.

Did you look at the web sites?

I signed up through YTB (Your Travel Biz) There is a MLM aspect to this business with one of the most lucrative compensation plans I've ever seen. YTB has actually copy righted and put their compensation plan in writing called "The Bill of Rights" guaranteeing their reps get paid before anything else and it can not be changed on it's reps. Their stock is sold on the NY stock exchange and they received the Pinnacle award from Carnival for three years running. The travel site itself doesn't take much time at all. It's basically letting people know you have the site and asking for their business. I am also working the MLM aspect. I spend about 5 to 10 hours a week on both including downline support. Right now I would say I'm making about 50/50 on travel commissions and MLM. The CD/DVD goes into greater detail than the presentation on my marketing site. It also gives you a tour of the website and tells you exactly how to build the MLM aspect. This is told by a man who built a million dollar business in 60 months. To see the video on my marketing site go to www.ytb.com/lmesser and click on presentation. To see the site itself go to www.messertravel.com If you watch the presentation and would like the CD/DVD just let me know.

Thanks,
Lisa

Yes, it has the MLM side to it that has the best comp plan around. Right now they are having a special. You can get you very own travel site for just $99.00. If you just want to promote the travel site that is all you have to do. You will be paid for any trips booked through your site. Even your own trips.

Once you see the comp plan and start promoteing the business side then you will see that just about eveyone will take a lok.

We have many many people from YTB joining. We cost less and pay out MUCH more.

You can do this part time or fulltime.

Thanks
Harvey
