TIQUE Talks: The Business Podcast for Travel Advisors

15. Choosing A Host Agency That Best Fits You And Your Travel Business with Kaytee Fisher


Listen Later

So many advisors join the travel industry and don't give the ‘how’ much thought when they’re first starting. Many people have a dream to have their own independent travel agency without really understanding what goes into it (it’s way more than you think!). When you work with a host agency though, they should be connecting you with people and resources that best support YOUR unique book of business + a contract that mutually benefits both parties. However, it is not the responsibility of your host to create success within your business - that is up to you!

 

In this episode, we’re talking with Kaytee Fisher, the marketing administrator for Tique and owner of Origins Travel. Kaytee shares more about her start in the travel industry with various hosting agencies, and which model worked best for her. Ultimately, we know there are SO many different ways to run a travel business. At the end of the day, you have to create a business that works well for YOU and truly impresses your clients every step of the way!

  • (01:15) What defines a host agency
