INDUSTRY
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)
I have been with Avoya Travel for over 6 years, but in travel over 16 years. Hosting with Avoya is the best decision that I have made. When I was going it alone (without Avoya), I found out that the hardest item to overcome was to obtain clients. You could spend a lot of time, money, and effort in advertising and you still would not be very fortunate in obtaining leads. However, Avoya solves that for you with their marketing, and obtaining clients for you. I can not think of another host agency that provides the marketing, training, support that Avoya provides its independent agents. Thank you Avoya!!!!!
“Being part of Avoya is like having an extended family. Avoya is always there to help you build your business and teach you new ways how to sell. No matter how long you are in the business or if you are just starting a new business, they have the people in place to help you grow and learn. Their live lead program gives you the opportunity to gain new clients . They do all the marketing, and accounting so you can concentrate on selling and servicing your clients. I have been with them almost 11 years it was the best move I could have made I am a owner, and my own boss. Great company!”
I love being in the travel industry! I am officially retired, but work with Avoya selling travel to make extra income. It's perfect for me. Don't have to leave the house and doing what I love. Avoya's Support System is the best! They market for you, give you leads to work and answer any questions you may have almost instantly. Couldn't have a better host agency.
Joined Avoya 2 and 1/2 years ago as a 2nd career. Exceptional back office support, up to date relevant optional trainings, excellent supplier relationships and promotions, and the best pandemic support (real-time information & coaching). Most importantly, Avoya feels like family...with fellow IA's always willing to lend a hand!
The support that I get from Avoya is AMAZING!!!! They want you to succeed and they really care about you. I am so happy I have joined such a wonderful team.
I have been with Avoya for 16 years. They have been very supportive and allowed me to "do my own thing"...as long as I kept it professional. I am a happy camper!
Avoya has done a wonderful job supporting its IAs through this difficult time (the pandemic). I have never spent a day being confused about what is going on. I also appreciate the leadership and their ability to hold the vision for us as we navigate the uncertainty.
With previous experience as an employee of Avoya and twice now an Independent Agency affiliated with Avoya, this is a company with a heart. They truly care about you. From the support systems in place to the professional development opportunities, you are set up for success... Of course, you have to do your part too. I highly recommend Avoya as a host agency to any looking to switch or start anew.
Avoya does an amazing job keeping the agents supported. Technology is up to date and the staff is great! Leadership is extremely transparent. This is key in my opinion.
The two most important reasons that I joined Avoya Travel, stayed with them, and highly recommend them to everyone are the Live Leads program and their outstanding support. The Live Leads program has allowed to 100% of my time selling travel and maintaining my agency. I do not have to do any marketing on my own. In addition, Avoya's support system is fantastic. The staff is available to answer my questions and has helped me correct my mistakes. In addition, the other Independent Agents within in the system are always willing to answer questions, provide advice, and give other agents the benefits of their experience.
