TRAVEL AGENT SOFTWARE
One of the most important things you’ll have to consider if you want to become a personal travel consultant is what travel agent software you will use. You’ll need a good system to manage bookings, customer relationships and business operations. Every franchise or consortium will use different reservations systems so you’ll need to research the booking systems and customer relationship management (CRM) software offered.
Here’s why it’s essential for your business:
The Travel Franchise’s software suite includes access to the powerful iSell travel software, which is a booking engine and reservation system that tracks your customer’s information, holiday details, costs and commission. At The Travel Franchise, we also have created our own bespoke Vision CRM business management system which gives you everything you need to run a successful travel agency including a client database, commission reports, margins and more.
Even if you don’t consider yourself a tech wizz, you’ll be amazed at how easy it is to use the iSell travel booking software to enter details of every booking you make. Powering billions of pounds in travel bookings every year, iSell is not just an award-winning platform. It’s perfect for transforming how you approach customer management and bookings.
Here’s a glimpse at just of the amazing functionalities of working with iSell and The Travel Franchise:
What’s more, you get full training on the iSell travel software in your first week with The Travel Franchise. Need additional support or resources? There are tons of videos available online in our knowledge base The Hub, plus a downloadable operations manual. And if that’s not enough, there is also a support team you can always reach out to as well as your personal Business Development Manager (BDM). Every travel consultant that signs up with The Travel Franchise gets one concurrent user iSell license with their franchise.
