Working at Pickles Vacations has been hands down the best decision I ever made. Stephanie has been nothing but supportive through all the trials and errors of learning to be a travel advisor. Since becoming a travel advisor, I have gained so much knowledge through the team workshops and training sessions Pickles has provided. Stephanie not only has been a great leader, she has truly set me up for success. She encourages me and supports me in all the ways I need. I am excited for my future with Pickles Vacations and I cannot wait to see where it continues to take me.

PTN has by far been the best host agency! Benefits provided by this host far out way the minimal monthly cost. They do a great job at providing training and the tools you need to be successful. Any time I have a question as a newer agent someone is always happy to guide me through my issue or direct me on where to gain more knowledge about the topic at hand.

Working with Pickles Travel Network as my host agency has been nothing short of exemplary, and I am compelled to highlight several key aspects that contribute to their outstanding service.

First and foremost, access to training, both live and cataloged, demonstrates PTN’s dedication to keeping its agents informed and equipped with the latest industry knowledge. This proactive approach not only enhances our individual expertise but also ensures that we are well-prepared to meet the diverse needs of our clientele.

The communication from PTN is consistently excellent. Timely and relevant updates keep us in the loop regarding industry trends, policy changes, and other critical information. This transparent communication fosters a sense of trust and confidence, crucial elements in the travel industry.

The user-friendly agent portal provided by PTN has significantly streamlined our workflow. Its intuitive design and efficient functionalities make navigation a breeze, allowing us to focus on delivering exceptional service to our clients. This emphasis on user-friendliness reflects PTN’s understanding of the importance of technology in today's travel landscape.

One of the standout features of PTN is the sense of community among its agents. The collaborative environment, where fellow agents actively communicate and support each other, creates a conducive atmosphere for success. This communal spirit goes beyond the typical host-agency relationship, turning PTN into more than just a host—it feels like a community where everyone is invested in each other's success.

Contrary to my initial concerns about joining a host agency, PTN has proven to be far from an impersonal, hard-to-reach organization that treats its agents as mere numbers. The personalized attention, responsiveness, and genuine care for the success of each agent set PTN apart.

In conclusion, working with PTN as my host agency has been an enriching and rewarding experience. Their commitment to continuous improvement, transparent communication, user-friendly technology, and a supportive agent community make them an ideal partner in the dynamic world of travel. I wholeheartedly recommend PTN to any travel professional seeking a host agency that values excellence, collaboration, and individual success.

PTN has been the answer to everything I was looking for in a host agency! I was previously with another agency, and they didn't provide any time of support and I was so lost! I feel like I have found a community and home-base with PTN. There is just so much guidance and support, not just from the PTN Team, but from my peers as well. I don't feel like I'm embarking on a lonely journey anymore. I am fully supported and in turn, I'm more confident in a new-to-me industry and motivated to get out there and be the CEO of my business and life! So so happy and proud to be part of PTN! =)

Pickles Travel Network has been awesome, lots of support and videos to help out a new agent with all the details. The new Dash Board makes it easy to find the information you need and quick access the systems you need right there to open a new window to input information you need. It has all the Business Essentials and Network perks you need.

For my first year in the travel industry, PTN had a very easy set up structure and provided lots of education. I love that they continue to offer education and make it easy to stay connected to coaches and mentors. As my business grows, I’m excited that they have options for me to become more independent.
