December 01, 2023

I began my journey as A Travel Agent / Destination Specialist with Avoya Travel network on July 5th of this year. After having done my research and moving from one host to another and from behind the scenes with ALG,... I realized Avoya was the better choice, because they provide leads ($$$) (maybe not all good leads), but at least they are honest about it. During the training they explain the percentage of good leads and bad leads. Since I started.... I've slowly followed through with all the clients based on the training provided from the very beginning to the Early Success training. I highly suggest, "Don't ever stop training!" Everything is easy to find and the support desk is pretty quick to answer questions when your lost. Having a one-on-one is easy enough, just email and someone will take time to help. Most of the job is about reading. Lots of reading.
Everyone I've spoken with has been easy to get along with, and though there are not classes where there is a teacher and the students in a webinar (which I'm very used to and it worked to have the connection to the community I was working with) it's actually a good thing. They do have webinar meetings where we do gather and are being taught, but they are timed and your questions are answered... and if not, just email someone and they reach back as quickly as possible.
I've already booked $70,000+ Gross in 6 months, and my current year commission is over $3,000+. That's pretty good in my eyes for booking 8 customers out of the 37 I've been trying to work with. Unfortunately at times, you do have to let go of a client because there is nothing you can do to match their unrealistic budget. That's OK! Trust me!
If your interested in joining Avoya, just understand your NOT alone. There is always help and taking leads is a quick way to make a bit of cash.
I do highly suggest getting out into your community and making yourself known. It's your community that is going to remain loyal to you, their Travel Specialist.
Good Luck (Fingers crossed for you)

What I love the most about Avoya is the work any where, any time aspect of it. I live in a separate state from my parents. December 2016 my Father took ill. He passed away the end of January 2017. Due to Avoya's work any where any time aspect I was able to go up and be with my Father during the illness and stay with my Mother after his passing and help take care of arrangements and still work and take care of my customers. With a sticks and bricks office I would have had to use all my vacation and sick time and possibly even go on family leave. There are other great things, but that's the biggest for me.

I think one of the greatest aspects about Avoya is the cohesiveness of the Independent Agents and Avoya's mechanism to help them connect. I honestly don't think I would have made it this far without the support in the Community Forum. Avoya promotes a professional relationship among the agents, allowing new IA's like myself to learn from seasoned veterans.

As well, the support offered by the Avoya team is also simply amazing. Whether it's the Mastermind team with the opportunity to grow your knowledge, or the support personnel who work with us in ever aspect of the client or trip, everyone is top notch!

I love this company. The support, training and service is fabulous! I've just referred two other independent agents and one has joined, the other is in the process. Thanks AVOYA, exactly what I was looking for!

Although I have traveled extensively my whole life selling travel was all new to me. Avoya has been great for someone coming into this without a travel agent background. The learning & support especially since joining the Master Mind group has been key to getting me to where I am. I researched and considered a number of host agencies and am glad I chose Avoya. My advice to any new IA would be to not measure yourself by others. Although you will never stop learning there is a lot to learn just to get up to speed. Days of frustration & a large time commitment for learning is overwhelming at first but by 6 months there will be less doubt. Be patient. Also give yourself a break by not trying to learn to many vendors at once.

All the support that I received is invaluable to someone new to the industry. Everyone is very caring in answering questions and all the webinars helped me learn all aspects of travel.

The resources you provide to each and every IA is second to none. I don't have enough words to express my gratitude to this company for its unparalleled level of professionalism and expertise. You are a host agency's host agency: You listen, adapt, and implement. I have only been in the Avoya network for 60 days, and I wish I knew you sooner. I thank God for Avoya Travel!

I love the accessibility of the Avoya Network and how I may be in business for myself but not by myself. I love that there is a support group out there at the main offices and the Mastermind program is fabulous! I've been with them for over 10 years now and looking forward to many more years to come!

I've been with Avoya for over a year and my experience has been terrific. It was easy to set up my business and affiliate with them. Their live lead system is great. Yes, you will get leads that have no interest, but so do brick and mortar stores. People browsing and gathering information. That is were your sales technique kicks in. It gives you ample opportunity to sharpen your approach to selling travel. I've spoken with other agents here at Avoya and their business took off immediately while others it took some time. My biggest success has been on the repeat client. Ultimately, it's up to you if you succeed or fail. Avoya tries to offer you all the tools - take advantage of it. I'm very grateful for what Avoya has been able to offer me.
