Creator's Key Takeaways

Consistency is key. Consistency is key with your social medias with whether it's posting offers on X days, uh a meme, another day, whatever it may be, just having your presence there, keeping your name flowing, um and and keeping it out there.

If you have the confidence, I would absolutely encourage you to go forward with video calls, at least offer them.

Make sure you set very clear expectations. If you think it's going to take you 2 days, then that's no problem at all. You just explain to them this isn't straightforward.

The more you do this, the more that that will come 100%. So, it is a little bit more difficult. I appreciate that completely when it comes to where to go.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Offer video calls to build rapport and understand client needs better.
โœ“Set clear expectations for response times and stick to them.
โœ“Create an Excel spreadsheet to track suppliers and build knowledge.
โœ“Get multiple quotes from different tour operators to compare options.
โœ“Ask clients about their booking timeline to identify blockers.
