The Honest Truth About Becoming a Travel Agent

from Professor Melissa's Cruise Pod · host Professor Melissa

Big news, and I wanted you to hear it from me first. After years as a travel agent myself, and helping thousands of you start and grow your own travel businesses, I finally built the host agency I always wished existed. It's called Atlas Coast Travel Group, and it's officially open! But before I tell you about it, here's the honest tour of this whole industry, the one I wish someone had handed me when I started. If you love to travel and you're already the person your friends come to for where to go and what to book, you might be a better fit for this than you think. In this video I break down how becoming a travel agent really works, the three ways in (host, franchise, and employee), what it actually costs, what agents really earn, the MLM red flags to watch for, and the exact five questions to ask before you sign with anyone.
