I started with Fora in Oct 2023 and booked $120k in travel in just 3 months. Honestly I had absolutely no experience in travel aside from booking trips for my family. I thought it would be a good way to get a little extra income but knew nothing about the industry. Fora gave me every training I could ever need so I feel comfortable booking hotels, cruises, all inclusives. I have been very impressed not only by the training but the support and community. As a total newbie I was worried I wouldn't know what to do but now between the training and support, feel totally confident that no matter what I come across, someone at Fora can help me.
I began at Fora in order to book my own travel, but it has grown into a business that I am in total control of. As I began taking Fora training I kept thinking, "oh, that is interesting, let me learn more." In particular, I focus on cruising. The community is full of helpful people who share willingly, the company is part of Virtuoso so all of the perks are available to myself, and now all the other people I book cruises and hotels for. Once you hit PRO status (which only took me a couple months) you can take advantage of benefits, and that has been incredible. I cannot say enough about the Fora HQ team, the mentorships, the training, and the support.
Thank you Julie! And congrats on hitting Pro so quickly! It's great to have you as part of the community.
I joined Fora 3 months ago and have been amazed by the breadth of the training, the support of the community, and the sheer scale of the marketing assets that are made available to all advisors to help grow their business. I still have a way to go but I am so happy I joined Fora to launch my travel business.
Thank you Marisa! I am so glad you are finding all of the training, community, and resources helpful to you as you launch your travel entrepreneurial journey!
Fora had given me more support than I can handle! They have endless opportunities for trainings and support to grow your business! The Fora community has also given me the support when needed. They are quick to pay commissions and answer questions. The booking platform is so easy to use and continues to get even better! I am fortunate to have joined their fabulous community of advisors.
Thank you Jenn! And congrats on hitting Pro! I hope we get to meet sometime soon.
I’m only in my third month with Fora but I have been blown away by how cutting edge this agency is, and by the training and support system. I originally planned to get my travel agent license as sort of a side thing, to make money for what I already do on a regular basis (i.e. plan trips). But seeing what Fora has put together, my vision has expanded significantly. I want to, and am working towards, making this a full-fledged business. I love Fora and am proud to be a part of the community. I tried another host agency first and actually left (even though I had already paid the annual fee) because I didn’t feel supported or confident in the way the agency presented themselves in terms of training and marketing. Fora was a complete 180 from that experience.
I’m excited to grow with Fora!
Thank you Briana! And thank you for being such a great contributor on Forum as well.
I just passed my certified test and so far I have nothing but great things to say about Fora! Training is thorough and with it broken down into shorter videos it definitely keeps my ADHD self interested and focused. Great communication as well which I appreciate as they are generally quick to respond. Learning a lot!
I have been in the travel agency game as a side hustle for many years. I recently came over to fora and the experience is out of this world. The platform is easy to use and navigate. The support team is fast to east to ask questions to. Also the other agents are about team. if i have a question its a rush of answers!!
Working for Fora has been a dream come true for me as a stay-at-home mom with a passion for travel and planning. The platform and training Fora offers are truly amazing! They provide incredible resources and support, including weekly Zoom calls that are both encouraging and informative. It's evident that Fora genuinely wants to see all of their agents succeed, and I couldn't be more grateful for the opportunity to be a part of such a supportive community. What's even better is that I can do this on my schedule, making my own hours. This flexibility has allowed me to start and grow my business at my own pace, as I continue to learn and develop my skills along the way.
I've had a really pleasant experience with Fora thus far! I joined in January, attracted by Fora's marketing strategy and low barrier to entry for new advisors. I come from within the travel industry and already have 11+ years of experience so I got accepted right away. Coming from a tech startup, I was really impressed with Fora's training program and the support you have access to as a brand new advisor. They put in the effort to make new advisors succeed. I dove into their certification program right away, and now 4 months in I'm on my way to advanced and pro status. It's all self-driven, but if you use the tools they make available to you can absolutely succeed with Fora. Marketing materials, training, community support are all impressive considering the competitive commission split and low cost to join. I'm planning on staying with Fora!
I have sincerely enjoyed working at Fora and consistently rave about it. The support from the team has been great, we have such a talented network of other travel advisors too. It is definitely self-starting, but it gives you the freedom and tools to create your own business and offered support when I need it. The resources are there, and this is my part-time gig for now, but I would love for it to become more full-time.
I started as a travel agent in 2023 with a MLM travel agency. I didn't know enough at the time to understand that it wouldn't be a good fit for me. Moving over to Fora this year has been night and day. While I have more experience now, the available trainings and updates on communication with vendors is amazing. I also appreciate that their guidance and policies are streamlined to give the agency the polish and reputation to market to high-end clients effectively. I think the marketing resources and templates are also gorgeous and a huge help.
My only feedback is the intitial commision structure. I think 70/30 is not great. But, not enough to take away the 5-star rating.
