In these tough economic times, bookings are down, but people are still finding ways to travel.  Mexico is a great market to sell at this moment. Cruises prices are at an all time low!

These slower times present the opportunity for you to step back and evaluate your business plan or improve your business model.  Take a look a the trends and the new technologies available to you, then learn them.

Take advantage of the social networks and learn  how you gather and then cultivate those leads. Do you know what a lead is worth to your business today?  What can you do to turn more of those leads into buyers and then to lifelong customers.

If you do not have a blog, get one.  I can show you where to get free hosting  to set up a free wordpress blog.  There is no better time then now to gain an understanding of these tools and how to expand your business model for the travel business of tomorrow.

Social Media is another growing market for you to learn and cultivate.  It gives you the ability to expand your customer reach and client base to a list that is only limited by your imagination.

In The coming months, you will find all kinds if travel agent tools and tips here for marketing both on and off line.  What do I think is most important, build your list….The money is in the list!
