Travel Industry and Auxiliary Revenue
Many travel advisors earn commissions by selling core trip packages, like transportation and hotels. However, those who really boost their revenue go beyond just these services. By tapping into opportunities for auxiliary travel revenue, such as upselling tours, excursions, insurance, or seat upgrades, advisors can increase their earnings significantly. These tools not only enhance the client experience but also create extra income streams.
