There are several considerations for travel agents when choosing a new host agency — or choosing their
very first host agency.
Agents will want to know about fees, commission split, marketing etc. But the number one thing that
agents should be concerned about are the technology tools that the host agency offers.
Why? Because when you have the right tools you don’t spend hours and hours on admin work and can
concentrate on selling and serving your clients.
As well, your clients will be impressed and appreciative of your efficiency and professionalism.
The Travel Agent Next Door (TTAND) has always prioritized developing tools to make its travel agent partners’ lives easier. The company has its own highly skilled and creative IT division which is constantly coming
up with new tools.
