Know my #1 reason why I travel ?
Get away from work ! Rejuvenate ! Have a break in life. Forget all of life’s little issues … Even if only temporary !
Doesn’t hurt that I also get to see new places and experience new cultures !
However that is not my #1 reason. It’s for a needed break ! (smile)
Why did I get in
the travel business ?
I can promise you, it is NOT for all the headaches that
can rise in client vacations, behind the scenes !Though my forte’, and I do seek those natural highs from ‘problem solving’, that is not my utmost reason for getting in this business !
No … I was NOT looking for another career after leaving banking of 10 years !
So No … I am NOT suggesting you get in this business ! Leave the work to me & you go have FuN !
My reason for being here … Is so that YOU too … Discover the value a vacation can bring you !
Why I offer travel to others, is no different than your
chosen career. Hopefully, in general,
you love your job/what you do !
Either to show others compassion or share your expertise
in the product or service, you not only LOVE … But you can help others … And
you believe in what you do/offer !
I believe vacation saved my life ! In more ways than one !
I’m a work-a-holic … I need/deserve vacation
more than YOU (you should think the same way too … YOU need/deserve vacation more than me) !
Fortunate for me … I discovered the value a vacation brings to a work-a-holic ... 30 years ago.
And I believe it has saved … A many a clients marriage too ! Even when they didn’t know it needed saving !
I’m also a Certified Life Coach and
Teacher too … Naturally you can see WHY I am driven in wanting to help YOU !
Can you only imagine how frustrated I
get … When I don’t get folks away ? Can't give what I know will help in their lives ??Or receive callers who think/act like, they’re doing me a favor, by buying their travel from me !
If you don’t opt to travel… The person you are hurting is YOU ! Your mate !
1st
step for all 3 plans … Make a list of the travels, on your bucket list.
Don’t put down the whole world !Think about it. Name your 5 top places.
Yes, it can be generic, like Europe or Canada. Or you can be a little more specific, like Mediterranean or Canada/New England.
Plan #1 … Commit to vacation EARLY !
Plan a year or 15 months in advance. As soon as vacation pricing comes out. Then plan your next vacation, 6 months prior to leaving, on this vacation. In time, you will be on a cycle of seeing the world !
This gives you time to set forth, monthly equal payments !
Plan #2 … You can’t
commit to a vacation date that early ?
Then find a travel specialist who will allow you to
invest in a vacation certificate, with payments, for a future vacation ! Cruises Inc can help you here. This way, your saved money is reserved for
your well needed vacation !
Plan #3 … Invite family and friends to join you !
Did you know vacation vendors offer you travel credits, for
this vacation, when you invite others to join you ?1st step … Make a list of all your friends/family/co-workers. Only name the 1st person, per couple, so when you’re finished, this is ‘how many couples’ you have.
2nd step … Beside each name, write ‘when’ they can travel ?
3rd step … How long can each of these folks get away ?
4th step … Who are early planners ? Who are last minute ?
5th step … What might each of their budgets be.
I have several clients who are involved with plan #3. Vacationing more than once a year … For years
… And seeing the World ! You can too !
Let me help you !
It’s like starting
our own business WITHOUT being the agent !
The value of not being the agent, is for an agent to help YOU … Get here
!
If I had my business to do over again, I would ONLY opt for
plan #3.
I would chose 6
vacations a year . And promote to
everyone I know, just 3 dates.Bar tender, mechanic, mail man, nurse … Doesn’t matter who goes with you … Think about folks in your club, your church ! Other folks who are not traveling
(they may be waiting for a leader like you, to plan it)
It’s about you getting there !
Cause once you’re on a cruise, an All-Inclusive, or Land Vacation Package … The vendor takes over taking care of all your guests !
You just have FuN too !
(Unfortunately, I didn’t have this same insight 25 years ago, and stuck by the phone, in being here for all, taking advantage of #3 ! smile)
Or you can opt in #4.
The 52 week money challenge !However, unless you are committed at not using this $$ in time of need over another $ issue, this may not work for you. You have to opt in being more committed than that, if you want to … See the World !
It’s where m any travelers on a minimal budget have turned to … For years !
You just didn’t apparently know !
(434/800) 237-3832
PS. You’re a
last minute planner ?
Then look to #2 & #4 . And have money in hand upon your 1st
call to your travel specialist !Folks who give a bad name to ‘last minute’ travel buying ?? Those who call & have no money to buy.
Like any agent, I personally have 0 compassion for any such caller ! And sorry, unable to appreciate such callers who are selfishly dreaming ! Vacation is a serious business ! And should be treated as such !
