The dust has finally settled at Travel Quest. We just hosted over 150 agents for our yearly National Learning Conference in Minneapolis. This exciting event started on Friday night with a pre-event, Saturday had a variety of classes, and it ended on Sunday with a vendor trade show.
When developing the meeting, we looked at it from an agent’s standpoint. We used feedback from agents to learn what they want. This led us to a unique agenda including accounting, vendor classes, planning for retirement, group training, cruise training and much more. You can customize your agenda and choose which classes will be of interest to you. Agents new and experienced will walk away with helpful information.
The piece of the meeting that most agents found helpful is the networking. Often times when you are a home office, you miss, and sometimes crave, the networking. This is what Travel Quest tries to overcome. We have a private Facebook group and forum to interact with other agents and the Travel Quest staff. At National Meeting, you can meet new vendors and also network with fellow agents. It is so helpful to hear what another agent does in their business that you could try. Everyone is willing to share ideas and successes.
The last part that makes the Travel Quest Meeting different is that we recognize you as the Independent Agency Owner. We have awards that we give out to honor our agents’ hard work in various categories. We also give out amazing prizes, such as iPads, multiple airline tickets, resort stays and much more! We gave away over $36,000 in prizes this year!
Lastly, we have fun! Check out our social wall from this year’s meeting. We also have this cool video that shows what our agents and vendors think about the event. http://www.tqnationalmeeting.com/
We already have 2017 dates chosen, so mark your calendar for September 9th and 10th, 2017. We open this meeting up for all agents to attend.
