Expand your horizons…
Whether you are a seasoned advisor looking for a more supportive host agency or a passionate newcomer looking for a rewarding side hustle, we want to partner with you.
-
We are looking for a mix of both seasoned expertise and fresh perspectives:
Experienced Advisors: If you are looking for a smaller host agency where you don’t just belong as long as your fees are paid, we offer a collaborative team environment.
Newbies & Side-Hustlers: You don't need a decade of industry experience to join us. If you have a relentless work ethic, a love for deep research, and a commitment to great customer service, we should chat. Let us know what niche you are passionate about (like Disney or family travel) and we can help you turn it into a business.
-
We have relationships with many travel suppliers not represented on our website. Our clients frequently request family vacations, mass-market cruises, and theme park packages (like Disney and Universal). We want advisors who can own those niches and provide top-tier service across all budget levels. If you have a passion or specialty not represented on our site, we need you!
-
Whether you are experienced or not, you will have access to appropriate resources:
Direct Mentorship & Collaboration: You will have direct access to agency leadership for strategizing, troubleshooting, and guidance. We operate as a team, not just a network.
Top-Tier Supplier Access: You will have immediate access to world-class training programs through our premium supplier partnerships. You can network directly with specialists in whatever destination or niche you want to learn. Plus, if you have established relationships with BDMs at your preferred suppliers, you can absolutely bring those networks with you.
Business & Marketing Guidance: Whether you are navigating how to structure your business as a newcomer or trying to expand your marketing reach, we are here to collaborate and help you scale your business.
-
We offer competitive commission splits based on your experience and book of business.
Once funds are received from the travel supplier (typically after your client completes their travel), your commission is processed and paid out to you directly via ACH deposit. We will outline the exact split percentages and details in your sales contract agreement once you decide to work with us.
-
We keep our onboarding and ongoing costs transparent and affordable. We believe our success should be tied to your success, meaning we make money from the commission split. Fees are charged, but only to cover expenses that will support your success. Our host fee is $300/year and we can discuss flexible payment options.
What you will get for your investment:
Your own Tern (CRM) seat within our agency to manage your clients, itineraries, and workflow.
A professional, agency-branded email (firstname@travelconnectionsllc.com) via Google Workspace, which includes access to Google Drive.
Access to our IATA number and agency leadership for onboarding and ongoing mentorship.
What you will need to provide on your own: You will be responsible for your own phone, internet, and independent Errors & Omissions (E&O) insurance. While paid marketing tools are completely optional, you won't need to spend much to start—our supplier partners provide ample access to high-quality, free marketing resources because they want to help you sell!

The short answer is: Not automatically. but the opportunities for free and deeply discounted travel are very real once you start selling.
The opportunities for free and deeply discounted travel are very real once you start selling. The travel industry relies heavily on "FAM" (Familiarization) trips—invitations for active, producing advisors to travel on complimentary or heavily subsidized trips so you can experience their product firsthand and sell it more effectively. Additionally, as an established advisor, you will gain access to exclusive industry travel agent rates and booking rewards for your own personal vacations.
We are looking for business-minded partners who want to build a profitable career. If your primary goal is to build a successful travel business, the travel perks will naturally follow as a reward for your hard work!
