Travel Agent Jobs: Going for Delight, Not Dough

Wednesday, March 19, 2014

In 2011, an Oprah Winfrey Show episode revealed that travel agents are some of the happiest professionals in America, along with firefighters and special education teachers. After all, travel agents are mostly adventurers themselves who enjoy unique experiences whenever they go to different destinations and want to share what made them feel alive to others.


Becoming a travel agent isn't as hard as you might think. Yes, it's essential to have some experience in the industry, but there are host agencies that can help you start your career. A host agency is like a franchise to which you pay a membership fee and a part of your sales commission. These are just small amounts of money that you may also consider as investments. This is because a host agency usually has extensive connections that can give you special discounts for yourself and your clients. Furthermore, it provides you with the necessary training on everything that you should know about becoming a travel agent, and equips you with the right tools to set up your own agency.

Having a host agency also gives you the freedom to work from your home, or anywhere you like. As long as you're connected to the Internet, you can arrange and organize travel packages to suit your clients' needs and requirements.

Try approaching one such agency if you're ready to live your passion as a traveler and see other people's globe-trotting dreams unfold along with yours. It's a wonderful feeling, knowing you're helping others appreciate the beauty of the world.
