Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm not used to them going into this Spiel and trying to make me upgrade my clients because I already know what my clients want

I dread calling your cruise line and talking to somebody in person because it should be a very simple direct process

no agent is ever going to say oh you know what yeah let's add a thousand dollars to the booking because I think it's a better deal than for my clients

they start going in to the princess Premiere plan and they mention every single thing there's so much you can get the premiere plan
