Using Points? New at Booking! Platforms for Booking?

from Travel Agent Chatter | Friday 15

This week for the Friday 15, Shayna co-hosts with Robin and Jennifer of TiqueHQ. We’ve got a bunch of great questions to discuss this Friday at 12 pm CST. Join us! 1. I am just starting out but I had a question about credit card reward points. If a client has points for flights or hotels with a particular credit card. Am I able to book travel for them using their points or a combination of points and money and still receive commission?2. I'm just starting out in the business. I'm about three months in and I'm working on setting the foundation of my business. I'm completing trainings, learning about suppliers, listening to podcasts, creating a logo and social media, along with plenty of other items on my to-do! I was even able to complete my first booking for some of my family! With that said, I'm worried that because I don't have more of a legitimate business, it's going to be difficult to complete bookings with any of the leads I get. What do you suggest I do to help build up my business and get potential clients to trust in me as their travel advisor when I'm so new?3. I'm a new advisor and the host agency's booking platform is soooo complicated! I'm still trying to make it through the training. Thinking about switching to another host. Are booking platforms so complicated in general? How can you find out?RESOURCES:➡️Charging fees - https://hostagencyreviews.com/blog/travel-agents-guide-to-charging-fees➡️Free Resources: http://tiquehq.com/launch & tiquehq.com/tech-stack➡️Our software directories - https://hostagencyreviews.com/travel-agency-software➡️HAR*Wired Day 4 demo day, worth taking a watch to see them all back to back so you can get a better idea - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pfEi73sRE0
