Travel Quest is the BEST!

After 25 years as an elementary teacher, I was ready to follow my passion and begin my "adventure" in the travel industry. After tons and tons of time researching all of the different host agencies, I narrowed my search down to two. I read everything I could, and finally got the courage to make my first phone calls. Wow, Travel Quest blew the other host agency away! Believe me, because of the helping and caring attitudes I found with my first few informational calls, TQ was my choice, and I have not regretted that decision in the slightest in the year and a half I've been with them! In fact, the assistance they offer just keeps getting better and better!

Bonnie, Walt, and the entire TQ staff are the most welcoming and helpful people! I always feel like I have someone to listen to my questions, or steer me in the right direction. It is very apparent every single day that these people truly care about the people who work with them, and that they are willing to offer assistance in any way possible to help them succeed. I've never felt as though my questions were silly, and they've always been great with every phone call or email. That's exactly what I was looking for!

The TQ FB page is absolutely THE BEST! I can't begin to tell you how much I've learned from the awesome agents there, and I appreciate their willingness to help others who have less experience. There is so much valuable information in their posts daily, and everyone is very kind and helpful. I've read other TA boards, and there is such a HUGE difference when dealing with TQ agents! They are the best!

Again, I am so thankful that I made the decision to begin the new chapter of my life with TQ. My business is slowly and surely growing, and I'm excited to see where it goes in the next few years. I know, without a doubt, that it will be successful due to my great host agency family!

Thank you, Travel Quest!

Hey Ya'll at TRAVEL QUEST!!

What an exciting first year with TRAVEL QUEST!! There has been SO MUCH TO LEARN...but, never fear, the TQ team has been SUPER PATIENT with me!! It will take TIME & TENACITY to become more efficient....and lucrative....but I am looking forward to gaining these skills from the experts at the TQ HOME TEAM!!

As a 38-year veteran of the classroom, I have been organizing trips for 30 years...alone...just ME!!! To have a team of professionals in the industry that are so willing to assist with soooo many available resources is a "biz dream come true!" I am sincerely looking forward to a "WIN-WIN-WIN" relationship for all of us....YOU...ME...and THEM!!!

After researching how best to structure my agency, and learning about hundreds of host agencies over the course of 8 months, I finally started as a brand new agent in April 2017. I chose TQ because of it's affinity for helping new agents get started, its affiliation with Travel Leaders, and because I felt that my area of expertise would be benefited by my association with them. It has been a wonderful decision for me, and I LOVE TQ! Some of what I love is that they're accepting for new agents, they're accessible, and frankly, friendly. The thing for brand new agents to know is that they don't teach you how to sell or market travel (but the new branding guide just released is AWESOME, thanks Josh!); they teach you what to do once you've gotten a YES from a client. So knowing that going in, you should know your sales and marketing skill set to decide if TQ is the right fit for you. They are for me! The admin stuff: they have great preferred suppliers with top tier commissions, they pay on time as communicated with you, they stay in touch with newsletters and in their Facebook Group for TQ Agents, and they put together a conference every year to come together and network. That's gold, right there! The more personal stuff - Bonnie is super motivating and enthusiastic about this industry we all love, Angie is a wealth of helpful knowledge, and even Walt steps right in with answers when he's not busy on the back end of things! There are more than those three who are just as helpful, encouraging, and motivating (Kerri & Jen to my rescue often!).

For those who are considering becoming an agent, when you are self-motivated and ready to build your own business, TQ is a great place to start, grow, and stay. If you're looking for "how to do this job" training, this isn't it. It depends on your own abilities, skills, and mindset.

For experienced agents, the commission plans are great, there's never any question about payments being handled appropriately, and there isn't any nickel-and-diming going on. The other things you need as an experienced agent are beyond my skill level ;)

If I had it to do over again, I wouldn't change a thing. I wholeheartedly endorse and recommend TQ as a host agency!

I have been with Travel Quest since 2014, prior to this I was on the wholesale side of the travel industry. Like many I have a passion for travel and when circumstances arose that I needed to make a change I looked toward the retail side of the industry. I wasn't sure how to make that work, with just one call to Travel Quest I knew how I could make it work. With Travel Quests help and encouragement I feel I have made the right decision. What I like about working with Travel Quest is when I call into support I feel like they know me. They are always very helpful in answering my questions or providing assistance with an issue. The annual TQ conference they put on is a great time to meet vendors, learn about new programs and meet fellow TQ agents. It's well worth the time to attend. Again I'm really glad I found Travel Quest and I look forward to many more years with them.

I have had the most wonderful experience with Travel Quest! From day one, they have been there to help with any question that I may have had. I love the fact that I get auto replies that let me know that my email was received, as this was an issue I had with a previous host company. Travel Quest presents a positive transmittable energy that is wonderful to experience whenever you need to call or email in. I have had the honor of being able to join Bonnie & Walt Lee on a FAM, and a few other agents... This is not something that you would want to miss! Not only does Travel Quest have a great group of Agents on board, Bonnie and Walt themselves are the most personable, fun, and loving people to be around. Not only was the trip one that I needed so that I could do site inspections, but getting to know Bonnie, Walt, and the other agents made me confident that I not only joined the absolute best Host Agency, but I got an extended family in this agent world. So much to share, and everyone was so willing to give out information to help you succeed. This is the best Host Family I could have ever hoped for.
*Money comes when they say it will.
*There are no hidden secrets with this Agency.
*There are continually trying to grow for us, with us, and better us all.
*BEST HOST FAMILY EVER!

Bonnie, Walt, and the entire team at TQ are SIMPLY THE BEST! They genuinely care about all of their IC's and celebrate everyone's success. At TQ there is endless support and training. Their systems are organized in such a way as to empower all agents to be successful. I'm forever grateful for my friends and (now family) at Travel Quest; their support has truly been a blessing.

Travel Quest is the right fit for me! Superior support, quick invoicing, and a network of travel agents who are willing to help each other.

I started with TQ less than a year ago after talking to another agent who asked if I ever considered being an agent. I have been very happy with TQ. I only do this part-time but have been have happy with TQ's helpfulness on getting me started. I've had a couple 30 min coaching's over the phone with Angie. These have been very helpful. The staff has been so wonderful and their website has been great to work with.

One of the programs is free (For new agents) ! Just what I was looking for.

This fall will be my five year anniversary with Travel Quest (that went fast)!! After 7 years of working at a storefront agency I decided I needed a change of pace and was looking for an opportunity to start my own business. I knew of Bonnie & Travel Quest and after a little more research I felt this was the best fit for me. EVERYONE is so wonderful, supportive, and encouraging. The resources and support offered have been crucial in growing my business. I am so grateful for the Travel Quest team as well as the amazing network of agents that come along with being a part of Travel Quest..they are simply the best!
