This week for the Friday 15, it’s the RETURN OF STEPH LEE as she cohosts with Lori Speers of Levarte, now a KHM travel company.  So much to catch up on, plus some questions to discuss this Friday at 12 pm CST. Join us! 

1. I am wanting to transition from working fulltime at home for my current job, to owning my own homebased travel business.  I still need to keep my fulltime salary while my travel business ramps up.  I have been researching into host agencies, and think this is the way I will go.  If I do choose to go this path, what should I expect?  Will I have a specific contact that will help me (hold my hand) while I get started? - Kristen
2. Question regarding the registration of my travel agency: I'm French, I'm thinking of being hosted by a host agency based in the U.S and therefore register my agency as a LLC in the U.S since it's the easiest model for foreigners. Are there any specificity I need to be aware of? For example, what lawyer should I use? - Lohan
3. How do you start a partnership with someone? Someone wants to "get into" travel with me. I specialize in cruises. She has done alot of all Inclusives, been to several destination weddings so that would be hers. What's your thoughts on this? - Denise
