Travel Agent Achievers Podcast


Oct 18, 2022

Everyone has a different approach to learning, there is no denying its importance ― it makes you adhere to new and better work processes and systems. 

 

Some people like to learn and absorb, whilst others, learn and take action. Risking trying something new or different to move forward. Sometimes it works, other times it doesn’t.

Learning and implementing however is about growth. Growth for you as a business owner and taking action to build the travel business you desire.  

 

For travel business owners, learning new things is something we are ALWAYS doing. 

Whether it is supplier training or what’s working on social media at the moment. 

 

However learning and taking action on the things you learn I find at 2 different things. 

 

Learning and Implementing need to come together to become more than just a way forward; it also helps make sure that we can stay competitive in today’s global business marketplace.

 

In this episode, I asked one of the Travel Agent Achievers members to share her incredible story about her journey and experience in her travel business. 

 

Holly Velardo has over 20 years of experience in the Travel Industry providing tailor made itineraries with the best possible service and expert advice.

 

With her passion for the industry and love for her clients, she opened her own Travel Agency almost 5 years ago. 

 

During the pandemic and when the world closed down, she decided that she finally had more time to work on her travel  business. She joined Travel Agent Achievers to have things in place and to keep building and reaching goals.

 

One thing that she loves about the Travel Agent Achievers community is the SUPPORT and ACCOUNTABILITY not only just coming from me but from her co-members as she said. 

 

She also shares that it is so important to put together the systems and processes in business to get things organized. Once she put a few parts and pieces of automation into her travel business, it has taken away some of the administrative tasks, which has allowed her to focus on building her business. 

 

As she has implemented what she has learnt, she has also seen incredible results in her business from a sales perspective, but also growth in size of her business. Allowing her to do more of what she loves and with those she loves as well. 

 

Ros & Holly discuss why it’s important to invest in yourself, your learning and business to enrich your skills and knowledge, stay up-to-date, and move forward. 

Learning from your experiences, both successful and unsuccessful ones. Learning from your colleagues who are experts in their own fields. 

Holly is now working on specialised groups and encourages everyone to listen in, learn where you can and from people that ‘get’ you and take action. You won’t regret it.
