New Travel Agent looking to break out of the "friends and family" bubble. Advice needed!
I’m currently in the education field, but I’m looking at career opportunities outside of education to transition into travel full-time. I am part of Cruise Brothers Host Agency and have earned my Royal Caribbean Master Class certification.
I’ve had great support from friends and family, but I’m struggling to find new clients outside of my personal network. I'm based in South Florida and targeting the Boca Raton and Treasure Coast areas.
I’d love to hear from experienced agents:
How did you land your first "cold" clients?
Do you recommend in-person networking or digital marketing?
How do you stand out in a competitive cruise market?
Any advice or strategies you can share would be appreciated!
What specific aspect of marketing are you most interested in exploring next to help grow your business?
