✨ JUST BOOKED — and this one meant a little extra. ✨
A friend reached out over the weekend about a Universal trip she was ready to book. She already had everything in her cart and was completely capable of booking it herself.
Her question was simply, “Would it help you if I booked it through you?”
The answer? Yes. ❤️
I was actually able to get her package for slightly less than what she had found herself, but more importantly, by allowing me to handle the booking, the commission that is already built into the package comes to our small business instead of going back to the supplier. It also counts toward our agency sales numbers, which helps us continue to grow.
And I have to say… this booking came at the perfect time.
One of the hardest parts of being a travel advisor that people don’t see is the amount of work that happens before anything is ever booked. We can spend hours researching resorts, comparing flights, checking room categories, putting together quotes and answering questions.
We don’t get paid for any of that time. In fact, we don’t get paid until after our clients actually travel.
We completely understand that sometimes the price doesn’t work, plans change, or you decide to go a different direction. That is part of the job, and we truly get it! All we ask is that you let us know. ❤️
When we spend hours working on an inquiry and then never hear anything back, it can be a little deflating. Even a quick, “Thank you so much, but we’ve decided not to move forward” is genuinely appreciated.
So this is a HUGE thank you to the friend who absolutely did not need a travel advisor to book her Universal vacation…but chose to support us anyway.
You may have thought it was just clicking “book” through us, but it meant a whole lot more than that. 🥹❤️
Every booking matters. Every referral matters. Every person who chooses to support our small business matters.
And we are so incredibly thankful. ✈️🏰🌎
