Plan your trip into the travel industry today with BNT Travel Group!
Choosing a host travel agency is like planning a trip.
When searching for vacation options, research is critical to discover the perfect destination, transportation, and activities.
Joining a host travel agency as an independent travel agent can be a great way to start your career in the travel industry.
Here are the steps you can follow to join a host travel agency:
-
Research host agencies: Research different host travel agencies and compare their services, commission structures, and support systems. Look for a host agency that aligns with your business goals and values.
-
Meet the requirements: Most host agencies require that you have prior experience in the travel industry, a professional demeanor, and a passion for travel. You may also be required to have liability insurance and a tax ID number.
-
Apply: Once you have found a host agency that you are interested in, complete the application process. This typically involves submitting your resume, completing a background check, and signing a contract.
-
Complete training: Once you have been accepted into the host agency, you will need to complete their training program. This will familiarize you with their booking systems and procedures, as well as give you the opportunity to network with other independent travel agents.
-
Start selling travel: Once you have completed your training, you can start selling travel services to your clients. Your host agency will provide you with access to their network of travel suppliers and will handle many of the administrative tasks involved in running a travel agency, such as invoicing and payments.
-
Build your brand: While you will be selling travel services under the host agency's brand, it's important to build your own personal brand as a travel agent. Network with other travel professionals, participate in industry events, and build a strong online presence to promote yourself and your business.
