Creator's Key Takeaways

It is more important than ever before to book a Caribbean or Mexico vacation through a travel advisor.

I'm here to get you the best value for your dollar it's not necessarily going to be the cheapest resort but there's a reason for that.

The biggest reason is because I know them um if they're not they have a question they shoot me an email they have a phone number they can call if something happens.

I only quote private transfers for my people because a lot of people they don't know any different they don't know that a shared transfer in a private transfer are two totally different experiences.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Require a phone consultation with new clients to understand their vacation vision and weed out tire kickers.
✓Only quote private transfers for clients to ensure a better first impression.
✓Educate clients on the value of a travel advisor, emphasizing that it doesn't cost more.
✓Use social media, especially TikTok, to build relationships and showcase your expertise.
