In this episode, Robin and Jennifer uncover the many reasons why narrowing your focus can bring incredible benefits to your travel advising business. A niche doesn't have to be limited to a specific destination, but can also focus on a particular type of travel or target audience. By focusing on what you do well and specializing in a specific area, you can enhance your expertise and provide a higher level of service to your clients.

 

Tune in to learn how narrowing your niche can streamline your sales process, target your marketing efforts, and even give you a competitive advantage in the industry. Whether you're a seasoned travel advisor or just starting out, this episode is packed full of valuable insights and practical tips to help you level up your marketing and sales game!
