Would You Like to Get Online Travel Agent Perks and Travel Savings?



Online travel agent perks and savings of up to 50% - sound exciting?

Just imagine yourself, traveling as an insider, enjoying the best of everything on your vacations, and taking tax deductions for every penny you spend while you travel.

Don't have enough time to work a business?

Would you be surprised to learn that you could run an online travel agency with very little time, start up money, and operational costs?

Are you looking for some extra cash, maybe to supplement or even replace your income?

Becoming an online travel agent can be a simple way to make an extra income while saving 30-50% on your travel expenses. All you need is a computer, a phone, and as little or as much time as you choose to devote.

Are you thinking, "but I already have a job", or "that sounds expensive and complicated", or even "wow, that sounds exciting"!

Regardless of your initial reaction to this concept, you owe it to yourself to take a few minutes to learn more.


The Internet Age

  • Have you ever booked a trip?

  • If so, did you visit a travel agent, or book through an online travel agent?

  • Did somebody make a commission on your travel? How much work was involved on the company's part?

  • If you had a friend or relative who owned an online booking site, and the price was comparable, would you do business with someone you know, or with a faceless, large corporate website?



Most people will do business with a friend or family member rather than with a large online booking site, as long as the price is comparable and the business is reputable. So, if you could run an online booking site with a successful, well respected company, while at the same time enjoying great travel agent perks, what would your level of interest be?

As a referring travel agent you get to choose how much or how little time you devote to your business. Based on your own booking experiences, you probably realize that this is a business where the customer really does the work!

Your job is to spread the word about your site, and in return you'll earn commissions on all travel booked through your site - simple, huh?

Have you ever dreamed of being your own boss, and having the time and financial freedom to do what you want, when you want? What's stopped you from doing it?

Maybe it was the start up costs, or the idea of dealing with inventory nightmares. Perhaps the time commitment seemed impossible, or the thought of selling high priced products to your family and friends was less than exciting to you.

So, are there any work from home jobs that don't involve these hassles?

As an online travel agent, you'll have no inventory, and will never be pushing a product. Everyone knows about (and loves) travel, so you'll be offering services that others are already buying, at competitive prices. And, training is available through a wide range of formats and levels.


Substantial Travel Savings

Did you know that an online travel agent is able to legally write off 100% of travel expenses on tax returns? Not just air fare and hotel costs, but also meals, entertainment, and gas mileage. In addition, the following home expenses are generally tax deductible*
  • Internet service
  • Cell phone charges
  • Cable TV services, provided that you receive a Travel channel
  • Office supplies such as printer ink, paper, business card expenses, etc.
  • Portion of your home phone, if used for business
  • Portion of entertaining expenses, if speaking with potential clients about your business
  • Mileage expenses for business-related auto travel, currently $0.48 per mile
  • Portion of your home office expenses such as electricity

Just think about it; if you're in a 33% tax bracket the home business write offs alone could return huge tax savings for you. When you add in the commissions you'll receive on travel booked by your friends and family, and the savings available to you on your own travel, doesn't it just make great sense? How many work from home jobs offer such incredible incentives?


And It Gets Better!

As an online travel agent you'll be able to take advantage of many travel agent perks, including:

  • Discounted "fam trips"

    Offered by major resorts and cruise lines to familiarize travel agents with their facilities.

    These resorts benefit through the referrals of travel agents who love their experiences.

  • Courtesy upgrades

    Some hotels, resorts, and airlines will provide free upgrades to travel agents. Nice benefit!

More Details

Many online travel agents are looking for work from home jobs, and intend to create full time or secondary incomes, working from home. Others go into the travel business to receive the tax benefits and travel perks. Some take advantage of both aspects of the business.

There are no monthly quotas to meet, and there is no obligation to sell travel. Just let your family and friends know about your booking site and earn commissions on the travel they book for themselves!

All RTAs (referring travel agents) receive a complete booking site as well as a business marketing site for a low monthly fee (refunded monthly in many cases).
