Host agency Gifted Travel Network (GTN) is proud to announce its inaugural event for its agents, to be held October 12th and 13th in Davidson, NC. During the two-day event, attendees will learn cutting-edge marketing and business strategies from GTN leadership and will also gain access to a host of GTN’s top suppliers and partners.
After just over two years in business, GTN’s executive team and agents have a lot to celebrate. A unique focus on entrepreneurship and niche development has propelled GTN to the status of one of the fastest growing agencies in the travel industry; GTN sales have increased nearly 200 percent year over year, and the number of hosted agents has increased by over 175 percent. Over 30 agents from across the country will gather in Davidson for one-on-one meetings with GTN leadership, in-depth workshops on best practice strategies, and spirited discussions on how to tap into the unlimited potential in the travel industry.
The enormous amount of potential within the travel industry has been a big focus of GTN, says GTN President Meredith Hill. “My mantra for the year has been: ‘It’s never been a better time to make great money selling travel,’” said Hill. “And that’s why I’m so excited to have created this space for agents to have thriving businesses that are supported by our innovative programs, like the Travel Marketing & Business Academy and our competitive commission structure. At GTN, we’re giving people the opportunity to get started in an industry they love that’s full of unlimited possibilities and amazing support.” GTN agents in attendance will also get the opportunity to meet and greet with select suppliers, and agents will hear a special strategy-packed presentation from Sandra Weinacht, CEO of Incantato Concert Tours, the event’s main sponsor. “Just like GTN, Incantato Concert Tours is an innovative, creative organization that sets new standards in the travel industry. As the CEO and co-founder, I am excited to be a part of GTN’s inaugural event,” said Weinacht. “I look forward to sharing tips and proven strategies on how to turn dreams of unique experiences into travel memories — especially for performing groups. Each travel expert's community offers untapped groups that can be converted into rewarding relationships that enrich the travel expert’s portfolio and brand.”
