Host Agency
Joining My Vacation Lady was a turning point for my business. When I first signed on, I knew I had potential, but I didn’t yet have the clarity or confidence to really scale in a meaningful way. Since joining, my business has grown tremendously, with annual sales near the $1M mark in both of the past two years. That growth didn’t happen by accident. It came from having real support, thoughtful guidance, and leadership that truly cares about the success of their advisors. My Vacation Lady encourages independent contractors to build real businesses, not just book trips. I was supported in creating a business plan, narrowing my focus, and growing in a way that felt intentional and sustainable. The leads provided are high quality, and just as importantly, we’re given the tools and support needed to properly serve those leads and our existing clients. What really sets this agency apart is the leadership. The owner is honest, transparent, and genuinely invested in her ICs. I’ve never felt micromanaged or boxed in. I have the freedom to market authentically, work with the vendors I trust, and focus on the types of travel I truly enjoy selling. That trust and flexibility has made a huge difference in my confidence and growth. I feel valued, supported, and excited about where my business is headed. My Vacation Lady didn’t just give me a host agency, it gave me a foundation and a support system that has empowered my business to thrive. I would highly recommend this agency to any advisor who wants to join a boutique host agency, grow with intention, and build a strong business for the long term.

Joining The Vacationeer has been an absolute joy and a turning point in my career. From the very start, I felt genuinely supported, appreciated, and energized and I feel that way today. What sets The Vacationeer apart is the culture of collaboration and encouragement. Every agent here genuinely wants to see each other succeed. There’s no sense of rivalry, only teamwork, mentorship, and shared celebration of accomplishments. Our leadership is exceptionally thoughtful, professional, and dedicated. From day one, he has prioritized creating an environment where agents feel empowered, respected, and positioned to thrive. The home-based model is ideal for balancing flexibility with professionalism. I can manage and grow my business independently while still feeling connected to a team that is always ready to share knowledge, offer advice, and cheer each other on. The support here is authentic and consistent and it’s more than words; it’s built into the agency’s day-to-day operations. One of the aspects I appreciate most is the wealth of learning opportunities. Whether it’s expanding my knowledge of destinations, suppliers, or sales strategies, or developing professional skills, there’s always room to grow and learn. I never feel like I’m left to navigate challenges on my own. The guidance and mentorship are readily available. The management team is accessible, responsive, and genuinely invested in our success. Feedback is welcomed, questions are answered promptly, and there’s a strong focus on continuous improvement and not just for business outcomes, but for the growth and wellbeing of the entire team. The Vacationeer has cultivated a culture where agents feel valued, supported, and encouraged to reach their full potential. I’m incredibly grateful to be part of such a forward-thinking and positive agency. I genuinely love my work here and consider this my forever career. Beyond internal culture, The Vacationeer excels in client service. The training agents receive ensures meticulous attention to detail and an in-depth understanding of each client’s needs, which allows us to design truly personalized travel experiences. The professionalism, expertise, and care this agency provides are unmatched. I enthusiastically recommend The Vacationeer to anyone seeking a travel agency that is supportive, knowledgeable, and committed to excellence, whether you’re joining as a professional or planning your dream vacation.

As a complete newcomer to the travel industry, coming from a background with zero experience in travel or hospitality, I was a bit intimidated when I decided to start my own travel business. Joining Anchor Travel Experts has been an absolute game-changer. I had to learn an entirely new set of skills from scratch—everything from booking systems to client management—and the owner, Kristi, has been incredible. She's always available to answer my questions, provide guidance, or point me in the right direction, which has made the learning curve so much more manageable. What I love most is the sense of community here. Our team of agents is spread out across the country, but we make it a point to connect virtually once a month on Teams. These meetings are super helpful for sharing tips, discussing trends, and just building that camaraderie that keeps things fun and collaborative. I never feel like I'm out on my own, flailing around trying to figure things out—there's always support when I need it. At the same time, Anchor Travel Experts truly respects that this is my business. Kristi encourages and supports me to grow and develop it according to my own vision, without micromanaging or imposing her ideas. It's the perfect balance of independence and backing. If you're looking for a host agency that offers genuine support while letting you run your show, I highly recommend Anchor Travel Experts. It's been empowering and exciting!

Hi, I’m Steph! I own the site. :)

I’m passionately curious, always up for something new! I love to travel, read/write, and meet new people. I have a sweet Aussie named Fennec and a boisterous Husky mix called Orion that keep me company!

I grew up in the travel industry, my parents’ travel agency was in the basement. Later on, I built and worked at a host agency for years. Sometimes I get so excited about things, I think I leave a trail of rainbows in my footprints! :)
