You're a Referring Travel Agent... Now What?

Millions of consumers have embraced the various online travel search engines. As a Referring Travel Agent with YTB, that same technology is now available to you. If your friends and family are already booking travel online, who would they rather work with? A faceless Fortune 500 company with a huge advertising budget, or someone they know and trust... you! That's why YTB stands for Your Travel Biz. It makes online travel booking personal. In addition, YTB offers all the same perks as the other popular travel sites. Your booking engine is powered and supported by Travelocity, and backed by 2,500 customer service representatives around the clock. In addition to your travel booking website you also receive your own golf website, floral and gift website, and passport/visa website. Although your sites offer millions of dollars of inventory, you don't have to shell out millions of dollars, nor do you have to pay exhorbitant monthly fees for support and web hosting. It's easy to be overwhelmed in the beginning, but remember to keep things simple. Just point people to your websites and let them do the work for you. YTB also provides outstanding training and support, marketing materials, your own referral program marketing website, and an opportunity to make serious income. So let's get started!

A Peek at the YTB Booking Engine

Set Up Your YTB Travel Website

When you sign up as or upgrade to a Referring Travel Agent, YTB will send a welcome email with important information about your account. Save the email for future reference, as it will include both your YTB ID# and UserID. Your travel booking engine url will look something like this: http://www.ytbtravel.com/UserID. Share your site with friends, family, and clients. You will receive commissions on all business transacted through your site, 24 hours a day. All you do is point people to it! Once your site is up and running, be sure to contact me so I can add it to the list below.
