After spending a year with a local storefront travel agency, I conducted extensive research and discovered Cadence—a decision that transformed my professional journey. Since joining, Cadence has offered unparalleled support, comprehensive training, enriching travel opportunities, and invaluable partner connections, including with the Virtuoso Luxury Travel Network, that have significantly contributed to the growth of my business. From day one, the environment felt like family, and that ethos remains at the heart of the organization. Under Wendy Burke’s visionary leadership, Cadence continues to evolve, expanding our horizons with innovative resources while preserving the warmth and camaraderie that define our community. I wouldn't want to be anywhere else.
I originally worked with Wendy and her amazing Team when they served as our 3rd party partner for my corporate group incentives. As the client, I was incredibly impressed with their high quality service, creativity and strong partnership. After retiring from corporate, I was thrilled to join Wendy's incredible Advisor community. Wendy leads a talented team of professionals that support Advisors with exceptional partnerships, information, training and support. I was very green as an "agent" and the Host and Advisor teams have been incredible supporting my business. Cadence lives their values, they truly care and their energy is contagious. They work tireleessly to ensure we have the latest technology to grow our businesses, for example, ensuring we have the latest technology to claim commissions without having to chase them down. Cadence has really enriched my life in this second half of my career!
From day one, Cadence has provided incredible support, professional guidance, and genuine encouragement. The leadership team is approachable and truly invested in helping every advisor succeed.
What makes Cadence special is the sense of camaraderie and community. The network of fellow travel professionals is welcoming, collaborative, and always willing to share ideas, celebrate wins, and lend support.
Cadence offers excellent training, marketing tools, and opportunities for personal and professional growth.
Joining Cadence Travel was one of the best career decisions I’ve made!
After 2 weeks with this agency, we are parting ways. I don't need hand holding, but there was absolutely NO support given for a new agent, even with bookings coming in.
I have just recently joined Cadence after working with a brick and mortar agency for about 2 years, so I am relatively new to the advising profession. I did a ton of research about my options with host agencies and Cadence consistently came out ahead of the pack. Making a decision to change was a big leap of faith but I couldn't be happier with my decision. All of my expectations have been met and even exceeded by a very high margin. The team at Cadence is professional, caring, supportive and just wonderful to work with.
If anyone wishes to contact me directly, I can be found at Virtuoso.com...please feel free!
I have been a Travel Advisor for 34 years. I joined Cadence Travel in 1995, and it has been a dream experience. The leadership has maintained a strong course of growth and development, led by our founder Wendy Burk. The vision is always very clear and the path toward high quality is unwavering. Our teams are committed to provide the support to Independant Advisor's and always putting the client first, and insuring the travel exceeds all expectations. My professional growth is a credit to the leadership and team that continues to develop at the highest levels.
I am grateful for the opportunity to be affiliated with the Cadence brand. I have only been working with them for a few months but once I signed up, I knew immediately i made the right choice. The staff has been supportive and agent focused with an abundance of knowledge. Im looking forwarded to continuous growth with Cadence.

With over 30 years experience in the travel industry, I have worked for large agencies, small agencies, hotels and most recently for myself. Opening my own agency was a dream come true. I am a successful small business owner with a proven record. Through a series of Godly events, I was introduced to Wendy Burk and her amazing team. With Cadence, I still have control of my own agency. I have enormous support, knowledge and comfort being affiliated with Cadence. Next to opening my own agency, joining Cadence has been my best and smartest business decision to date.
