Creator's Key Takeaways

I have been to Galapagos for two weeks on Silver Origin and snorkeled with the most amazing wildlife.

Expeditions are reassuringly expensive and actually you'll probably earn in excess of £2,000 commission on each booking you make.

I cried when I stood on the seventh continent in Antarctica for the first time.

The mission is to help you build your awareness and confidence of selling expedition and within that promoting and selling lots of silvery.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Focus on one expedition operator, probably Silversea, to build expertise.
Identify potential expedition guests from your existing database who book expensive holidays.
Use training and marketing support from Silversea to boost expedition sales.
