Hello KHM Today viewers! In the spirit of Groundhog Day, we have an episode dedicated to digging yourself out of the same old patterns of your travel business. 

Repetitiveness can be a big part of booking and selling travel, but it is important to note that minor changes can make a significant difference. 

 First up we have Soleil to talk about what is new and exciting with Norwegian Cruise Line to help you change up your client’s experience while onboard. Back by popular demand, Wanda Thomas is here! Today’s conversation is about tips and tools to help save you time in five key places. Those are customer service communication, email marketing, social media, financial tracking, and client appointment requests. 

Carolyn mentioned the Super Bowl and big events at the beginning of the episode. We talked about this in a past episode if you want more details: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b4mVzXGzDT4&t=3s

Hello KHM Today viewers. You may think we traveled back in time based on the introduction, but while we love travel, time travel is not something we can sell...yet! Today’s show aired on January 18th, not the 11th. 

January 22nd is the start of the Lunar New Year. There are cultural differences in celebrating throughout the world, but they all have one thing in common: family. Food also plays a significant role.

Unfortunately, our other guest was not able to hop on. Even though our episode was brief, we hope you learned a lot about the Lunar New Year.

Always keep in mind the holidays and celebrations going on around the world when you are qualifying your travel clients.

We are gearing up for our 100th episode next week. Don't miss this amazing episode filled with special guests, LIVE from our home office in Ohio. It is going to be a blast.

Hello and welcome to another episode of KHM Today! You may be having double vision. Yes, there are two episodes this week, but the LIVE, was interrupted so you missed some great content. Be sure to watch this video for maximum learning. 

Carolyn is back from sailing to talk to one of our very own agents, Jana Jackson. She is legally blind and here to talk about how she navigates the travel world.

Next up we have some holiday cheer. There are thousands of tours you can book with Viator for you or your clients that can spread joy during this winter season. No matter what you celebrate, there is a tour that you will enjoy.

Gone phishing! We are joined by one of KHM Travel Groups’ tech experts to talk about this serious threat that you need to be aware of to keep yourself safe.

Even our tech experts have issues, so we lost Jen there in the end, but we hope you learned something new today. See you next week!
