Do you know what it means to qualify your clients? It sounds a little scary, I know (at least to me) but is actually VERY simple (you might even be doing it already!!) and SO important. 

In this episode I'll talk about what it means, why it's one of the most important things you can do, and then will offer some suggestions for how to do it.

I'm just going to come out and say it - I think a lot of these "websites for travel agents" not only don't HELP you grow your travel business, but do a lot to HARM your business. 

In this episode, I'm sharing why I think that, and offering some (fairly) simple things you can do to change that. 

I LOVE books, and I'm kindof famous for recommending the BEST books to help in certain situations. 

In this episode, I'm sharing some of my favorites - around mindset, money, business, and life.

I know there are a lot of new agents joining the industry right now. 

And for a lot of experienced agents, you're restarting your business after this long... pause.

Have you ever quit a job, and realized after you left just how toxic and unhealthy it was? Some of you are feeling that way after having this forced break from your business for a while. It's hard to want to go back to long hours and little pay...

But you don't have to! This is YOUR business. You're the boss. And you get to choose if you're a good one or not.

In this episode, I'm sharing several ways you can set boundaries in your business so it can go from something that you dread going back to, to something you love...

I tend to have 2 modes:

Way behind on everything and panicked because I have too much to do, and not enough time
OR
Way ahead on things so I  mess around and don't get stuff done until I find myself way behind on everything and panicked because I have too much to do...

Which is obviously a terrible cycle to be in. I've been working hard to get a handle on this and have created a really simple tool that has helped me end the panic cycle.

In this episode, I'm sharing how it's helped, how you can use it, and of course, I've got the link for you to download and print your own copy. :-)
