Why should you switch to Travel Quest's Independent Agent Program? If you are a high producing, hard working agent there is no reason you should not be receiving 100% of the top commissions in the industry. Travel Quest is able to provide a win-win program for the host agency and the independent agent. We win by taking on skilled, high revenue agents who help us achieve higher commissions with our suppliers, which in turn attracts more agents. By taking on only experienced agents, we are able to spend more time giving you the outstanding service Travel Quest is known for. You win by receiving 100% of your hard earned commissions, earning top commissions, and by joining a host agency that treats you the way you deserve to be treated. As a Travel Quest independent agent, you will be part of a respected company that is high producing yet still gives you the friendly, prompt assistance that you find in small businesses. We want the best the travel industry has to offer in our independents and in return we give the best programs and service in the travel industry! What is the difference between Travel Quest and other host agencies? You receive 100% commission for your sales. No tricky gimmicks, no hidden fees. It's simple- you make the sale and you collect 100% of what you earned. We are a branch of Carlson Wagonlit Travel and pass along the benefits to our agents. Being part of Carlson Wagonlit Travel allows our agents to have access to special deals and offers, top commissions, and preferential pricing structures. Opportunity to claim uninvoiced commissions Many host agencies only give you the option to collect your uninvoiced commissions only if you approach them. Travel Quest takes the initiative and offers our home based agents a no-hassle program that gives them the ability to claim uninvoiced commissions each month. Agents simply need to review our list of commissions with no agent assigned, let us know if any of the clients belong to them, and we will make the proper adjustments for a small fee. We have a seasoned staff to help you with all your problems and to celebrate your successes. Be assured that when you call with questions or for support you will be speaking with a knowledgeable, professional, and familiar voice. We offer excellent marketing tools for our agents. Travel Quest is proud to provide our independent contractors with top notch marketing tools. Our agents have access to inexpensive, high quality, colorful supplier direct mail pieces to promote their travel agency. All you have to do is send us your mailing list and we'll print, put postage on, and send them out for you. Among other things, our home-based agents are given complimentary access to our CRM to organize and market to their clients, discounted Resort Photo Tour rates, access to e-marketing collateral and co-op marketing funds with our suppliers. The terrific community of agents you will join. We require that our independent agents have at least 6 months experience. This helps ensure that you will be working for a company with only the highest caliber agents. Meet other experienced agents like you who help each other with questions and share information. We offer continuing education and training to further your skills. Looking to know more about things? Travel Quest loves that you want to know more about the travel industry!
