When should I start my Travel Agent Business?
By The Good Travel Franchise · 4 December 2023

When is the best time to start a travel agent business? When is the busiest time of year for travel agents? Both of these questions are answered in this months blog!
I often get asked 'when is the best time to start?' and most of the time the answer to this is simply, 'when you feel ready to get going' BUT January & February are the busiest months for the travel industry!
Travel Agents can typically expect to deliver 30-40% of their annual turnover in January & February alone so believe it or not, now is a great time to get going.
The cut off for our December training has now passed which means anyone signing up now will be joining our training W/C 8th January 2024. This means you will be up and running and ready to start taking bookings right in the thick of our peak booking period.
The cut off dates to book onto our January training is Thursday 21st December. After this date the next training will not be until W/C 19th February 2024.
So I think the real question to ask yourself right now is 'Can I afford to miss out on these busy months?'
If the answer is no, then get a meeting booked in with me so we can discuss any burning questions you might have.
I also have a little surprise offer for anyone who joins before 21st December BUT you will need to book a meeting to find out what that offer is!
Myself and the whole team are super excited for January & February this year as it is predicted to be a record breaking time for the travel industry! Will you be joining us on this exciting journey?
