Life itself is full of daily issues. Vacations too, often subjected to these life situations ! Pre-planning for the “unknown” ! Where Internet buying leaves you. SHARE PLEASE !




For the life of me, I can’t believe folks haven’t heard enough horror stories, to refrain themselves from buying off the “net” … Buying on your own.

Yes, buying off the net means you are “on this road alone” … BY YOURSELF !

You’re most likely not in a position to hear all the stories I do !  Scary !  Scary all the stories and scary for YOU that you're unaware of them !

 
As your own planner, You get to …
*Do all the planning.  Most likely take hours.
*Put the pieces together, like airfare, hotel, transfers & more.
*Know all the rules for cancellation
*Remember final payment due date
*Decide if you want Trip Cancellation Insurance and know what it really covers.
 

WHAT IF YOU …
*DO SOMETHING WRONG, LIKE TYPE IN THE WRONG NAME OR PICK THE WRONG DATE ?  Oh well, you’re on your own !
*MISUNDERSTOOD RULES OR SOMETHING ELSE ?  Oh well, you’re on your own !
*HAVE A CHANGE IN YOUR LIFE SITUATION ?  Oh well, you’re on your own to figure out how to change everything !
*CAN’T CHANGE ANYTHING ?  Oh well, you’re on your own.  Possibly lose money and your vacation.
*DON’T GET THE MONEY BACK YOU’RE DUE ?  Oh well, you’re on your own.

Are you worn out, from just reading this last paragraph ?
Then why would YOU or anyone, opt in buying on their own ?
Why take on this responsibility ?


For the most part, agents don’t charge you to buy your initial vacation package !
Why would there still be agents, if everyone “was” or “could” buy everything on their own with no stress ?

 
I find that 75% of my customers have a life change after buying their vacation.  Actually 70% of my day, is changing vacations for customers.  I’m making no money as I make these changes … And neither will you, if you make your own plans … Cause you’re on your own !

Did you know, if you call an agent "after" you bought on your own and "now you have a problem".  This will cost you a lot !  Agent can't work for free, when the vendor is not paying them commission.  Matter of fact, the agent may not be able to do no more, than give advice, because the vendor won't talk to them, because you bought on your own.


Do you have the time ?
First to plan … Then to re-plan … Or fix ?

But you say it makes you feel good to do all this planning.  Fine … Plan !  But when it’s time to buy … Buy from an agent.

An agent is not paid for your planning.  An agent is paid for your purchases.  Are aware, that TODAY, with all the internet resources … 80% folks plan which vacation they want before they call their agent to buy ? 

So if you’re thinking that your agent doesn’t deserve the “little bit of money”, she might make from a vendor, cause you did all the work ?  Then I’m sorry … You not only have the wrong attitude, you don’t actually know the value of the agent !

The agent is for … AFTER THE VACATION IS BOUGHT !
(I do not mean, buy it and then call them.  No, call the agent & let them buy for you).
The agent is here to help guide you … Help you in a fix … Protect you … Protect your vacation.

You ask what do I mean by, “Protect your vacation” ?  Just because your agent buys from a name brand vendor, doesn’t mean that vendor doesn’t mess things up !  And the agent has to fix.  Many times, you will never know about the issue … Unless it can’t be fixed.  It’s usually just fixed, and the agent moves onto the next customer issue.

You say you’ve never run into problems from booking on your own in the past.  THEN THANK YOUR LUCKY STARS !  There’s next time.  And now you’ve been forewarned.  Could be the reason this article was brought to you !

 
The #1 reason to buy from an agent … THE UNKNOWN !
Rules … What could happen … So much more !

It’s the same reason you should be buying Trip Cancellation Insurance (and remember, not all Trip Cancellation Insurances are equal) … THE UNKNOWN.

 
You can’t predict today, must less tomorrow !
It’s your choice to make the right decision for your vacation !
And if you’re taking others … You’re subjecting their vacation too !  And you get to deal with all their “life situations” !

CALL AND BOOK YOUR NEXT VACATION (cruise or Land Tour package/All-Inclusive) FROM AN AGENT TODAY !
