I have been a qualified travel advisor since 1991. I had a Uniglobe Agency before 911 and I worked part time as an outside sales rep for years while working full time elsewhere. When I lost my full time job at director of sales during Covid I decided to go back to my 1st love of travel and TTAND was the name I heard the most when researching who I wanted to work with. TTAND gave me all the support I needed to get the best prices for my business. Flemming has always responded to my request for help. And the inside customer services people are great! Albina has helped me the most. She not only tell me what do to but she takes the time to teach me. Pamela, James and others have always been very helpful. I love being part of a big team. I met Charlene Smith at my doctors office and she has helped me learn the system more than anyone. I may work from home but I am never alone! I do travel with my team at The Travel Agent Next Door!!

TTand is the best Host Agency out there, I've worked at a few and never had the support that ttand provide, I remember sitting for hours on my off days waiting for my pay cheque. I'm grateful for our leaders and support staff not to mention our ttand community of Agents that are always there ready and willing to help each other. TTAND is home for me.

Over 3 years now with The Travel Agent Next Door and I am super excited to get to work each day...still! With a stellar support staff in every department always ready to take a call for assistance, how can we go wrong?! Attention to detail and recognition of all things important in our industry is what keeps TTAND on top! Regular communication through monthly Town Hall meetings, ongoing emails of support and cheers from Flemming (Founder) bring this company's standard of excellence to new heights! Annual Conferences! Road shows! Giving back to the Community events! Shout outs to the heartfelt enthusiasm with Penny, Rhonda, Sam, Natalie, Albina, Alma, Lorraine, the newbies on support!!! and those behind the scenes... We are "family" ♥ We are real - and it starts from the top down...and down back up to the top! ♥ Thank you TTAND for changing my career life as a Vacation Specialist from existing to thriving in so many wonderful ways...not to mention the generous split on commission - earning more on every booking - selling travel couldn't be better anywhere else than partnering with The Travel Agent Next Door - what are you waiting for? Go the "extra mile" and join our success team today!

I joined The Travel Agent Next Door in 2022 as a brand new agent to the industry. I feel so encouraged and supported by everyone I've been in contact with so far. The training has been excellent and there is nothing they haven't thought of. The entire team from initial contact, to onboarding and now to support has been incredibly kind and professional. The team is so approachable and provides personal attention when you need it. The agent website is continually updated with information and resources. I feel very fortunate to have found such a positive community in which to launch my second career.

Joining TTAND was one of the best decisions that I have made in a long time.
The support staff actually make you feel like you belong - they do not talk down to you and follow up to ensure that everything is in order.
While I am an idependent contractor, I actually feel that I am part of the organization.

The Travel Agent Next Door has been a real game changer for my travel business. I switched during Covid and the support and networking has blown me away! It starts with the Leaders of TTAND, then the support staff and fellow Agents, they are all super supportive and here to help each other grow "our" business. The technology they have implemented to help us work smarter, not harder is out of this world. So fortunate to have such a great organization to support my travel business!

I just joined The Travel Agent Next Door in July 2022 and am new to the travel industry. Between the agency and my mentor's help, I feel so supported and encouraged and empowered. When I need assistance, I get it almost immediately. It is a team approach, which I greatly appreciate. I am SO happy to be part of the TTAND team!

I have been with The Travel Agent Next door for only a couple of months. I am extremely impressed with the company, The support they give is amazing and the staff that you receive the call from are very very helpful and never make you feel as if you are "putting them out" or "disturbing them". They make you feel important no matter what your question and that no question is unimportant and believe me, even though I was an agent with another company, I have a lot of questions. Receiving a call from Flemming was a highlight as well, from what other company have you received a call from the founder of the company, again making you feel important and appreciated! At my other agency I never felt like that nor did we get the help as we do here. I am very happy that I have joined The Travel Agent Next Door!

After taking a hiatus from 7+ years in the industry, I was uncertain about joining again. A friend in the industry recommended TTAND to me and it was definitely the right choice! Joining was a seamless transition, the systems in place make it so easy to get back in the groove of things and support is amazing. Flemming, the founder of the company, is very involved and spends time one on one to ensure you are comfortable and ready to go. The support team is responsive, supportive, and website for agents is super user friendly. I've only been back as an agent a week but I feel like I've fallen right back into the groove of things! This company was definitely the right choice for me and I look forward to a long and prosperous tenure with the company.

Seven years and counting now with TTAND. I was in retail travel prior to selecting The Travel Agent Next Door as our host agency. All the promises made that the decisions made had to be a win for all parties. The level of support, vision and commitment to processes and partner companies when I selected TTAND are as strong as when my husband and I signed on. The support and Host office is second to none and many have become friends. The company vison stays true and strong. I spoke with many other host agencies and am 100% true in my belief we are still with the best travel host company for us. Thank you TTAND!

I have worked in the travel business since 2008. I first started as an Independent Agent 7 months pre covid with another Host Agency. I truly knew no difference until I had so much time on my hands during covid and began to look at other options. A light bulb moment occurred to me one day when I reached out to my previous host and asked if there was a game plan for how we as a team would hit the ground running once we made it thru covid. Or were we offering any support to fellow agents during these rough times. I had questions and was prepared to offer solutions if they were invited. I wanted a website and was told no you can’t have one yet other agent were running websites. It took 7 clicks to locate me if a potential client was looking for me. I was asking for time to discuss these pertinent issues. I set up a meeting with the Host Owner and was told by her second in command I had 10 minutes to present my offering and ask questions. At that point it was very clear to me that my business was of very little importance to that host.
Then I found TTAND.
I sent an inquiry email to TTAND and set up an eye opener meeting with Founder Flemming Friisdahl.
We were on different time zones, yet Flemming did not flinch at a late evening appointment. My questions were met with professional and caring responses. I recall thinking to myself can this really be the real deal. It has now been 2 years and 9 months and let me tell you TTAND IS THE REAL DEAL!

The support offered from TTAND at all levels by far has exceeded every expectation.
Flemming and Rhonda are the “REAL DEAL” and practice business the way business should be conducted. Transparency Transparency Transparency! If you need support beyond the support team’s ability, Flemming or Rhonda will never hesitate to call you. He has your back and truly recognizes the partnership between the agents/agencies and TTAND. Can you imagine getting a call every six months just to see how you are? That is the TTAND way!
TTAND is innovative and lead the digital way of doing business. If you need a tool to take your business to the next level, TTAND has it and if they do not, the back-end team will lead the way to bring it to fruition.
If you are even contemplating a change, please do yourself a favour and have the meeting with Flemming. It will be the best business decision you will make as a travel professional.
Thanks, TTAND I am very proudly selling travel in the millions now and could not have done it without you.
