He started Better At Beach Volleyball, while still competing at the highest levels, to help others who want to get better at beach volleyball. As I tell Mark, after interviewing so many different athletes on the show I think volleyball players travel as much as any other athletes in any sport. While the paychecks for beach volleyball might not be up to par with other sports, there are opportunities for volleyball players to play internationally and throughout the states.
Mark shares several stories about his travels around the world for volleyball and how he balances being a world class athlete while operating growing coaching and player development businesses. We discuss the current status of beach volleyball; marketing of the sport, growth of young players and how the sport is coming out of the world wide pandemic.

JIFU Travel LLC, is an American company which operates an exclusive travel membership-only platform for wholesale travel, vacations, cruises and car rentals to travelers at heavily discounted prices. This is my second interview with CEO and Founder, Brad Boyle talking about the programs they offer using algorithms that identify unsold inventory by various travel providers. Brad shares several ways to save money planning your travels and the actual importance of travel for work and for pleasure.
In these ”post-lockdown” days, many businesses and business travelers are looking at ways to keep their travel expenses down while still maintaining their face-to-face business relationships.
Make sure to follow Brad and JIFU on their social media pages to see how they can save you money on your next trip.

ABOUT JIFU
How does it work?
Unsold inventory hurts the bottom line. Empty seats, unsold rooms, and unrented cars must be sold, even if it’s at prices well below retail. Travel providers secretly share their unsold remnant inventory to online travel, including JIFU.
How can JIFU offer average discounts of 33-44% savings on hotels compared to the big name websites?
It’s simple, we all get access to hotels, condos, excursions, activities, cruises, and rental cars from the same place at the same prices. To make a profit and pay for advertising, other “discount” travel sites mark the prices up. At JIFU, we take those savings and pass them directly on to you, our members.
If JIFU doesn’t mark up the prices like the other sites, how does JIFU make money?
Instead of marking your prices way up like the other sites, JIFU is a month-to-month membership for unlimited travel benefits and full access to hotels, condominiums, theme parks, excursions, rental cars, cruises and more.
