No Reviews for a Host Agency on HAR – Should I Be Worried? Industry Standard For Commission Payouts to Advisors?


(Pardon our transition from SoundCloud, you can listen to this episode here!)

In episode 169 Steph cohosts with Jenn Lee in her brand-new role at Vacation Planners! They will tackle some great questions, so please join us! 

1. Hello, I would like to know about the host agency called MAGICAL VACATION PLANNER https://www.magicalvacationplanner.com/. I cannot find the reviews about this host agency on your list. Please help.Thank you  ---Rajan M.

2. I understand some suppliers don't pay the host until after the travel date, but I've found some suppliers like FareBuzz, Celebrity Cruises, Virgin Voyages, and Allianz pay the month after the sale or after the final payment it's made. 

I also know some host agencies pay out to their agents weekly, bi-monthly, or monthly. I'm curious to know the industry standard for how soon after receipt of commission from the supplier would a host agency pay the independent agent.  ---Jen C.
