Welcome to the Travel Agent's Assistant
For when you need specialized assistance to handle more volume in your business.

What makes "The Travel Agent's Assistant Program" different from travel software or travel kits?


I duplicate YOU as a luxury travel advisor!


I offer agents an informative and efficient resource to not only pass along clerical admin work, but I think just like you. 


I come from a hotel and wholesaler background with over 9 years of experience. I have assisted over 200 travel agents produce options for their clients, build amazing and quick quotes, close tough sales and even partnered with agents to assist their clients directly as an extension of their agency!


My hotel partnerships have helped my agents clear impossible inventory, produce unique solutions and supplement your VIP status for their clients.


Let's chat benefits of you having an assistant that has luxury travel experience:

  • Generating ideas and options for your client's requests without you needing to hold my hand the entire way
  • Freeing up your time to work on more clients
  • Build quotes in a timely manner with full explanations possibly increasing your close ratio
  • Take on requests that are not able to work on immediately (AKA: you focus on the big boys and let me handle the small guys)
  • AND, the most important, the potential increase revenue and retention in your business!

I am an extension of you! 

Services

I offer a wide range of service options based on your needs


From a quick "pick-your-brain" phone call to a "full-time" travel assistant as an extension of your agency. 

You choose what service best fits you per month because we all know some months are busier than others! 


No contract or membership required for any service!
