Hello I’m a new Travel Agent and I love Travel Quest University!!!!! It is awesome, Thank you and Thank you!!!!

I decided I wanted to be a Travel Advisor and joined Travel Quest Network in December 2014. I have an MBA, worked for over 12 years in upper management at 2 major hotel chains and later at a phone company. Also, I was an Accounting Consultant. Therefore, when I was looking for a Host Agency, I wanted a company with professionalism, excellent ethical standards, top suppliers, training and development. With this help I was able start Yam Travel Corporation and excelled in my own business. I have earned many specialist certifications which enabled me to learn about many destinations.

Travel Quest has helped me start my own Travel Agency. They are so great and are always there to answer questions. I love how many ways I can communicate with them and they are always so helpful.

When I began two years ago, I knew nothing about the travel industry. I was constantly on the phone or emailing. From the start, I've felt that I was part of the Travel Quest team and that the staff was happy to answer my questions. I have often asked for suggestions or recommendations and the staff has always been very supportive. Selecting a host agency is a difficult and very personal decision. I spent a lot of time researching and comparing agencies and I'm very happy that I chose Travel Quest. Looking forward to being able to MEET the staff at Travel Quest World this fall!

Last year, when I decided to start my own agency, I talked to many host agencies. I followed the "how to find a host plan" from host agency reviews and it worked. I decided that I really wanted to find a host based in the Midwest so that I could have contact with local area BDMS who oversea the area where my agency is located. I have known many of them for several years. So many of the host agencies are based out of Florida and California.
I also wanted a host that was easy to talk to and reach. When I talked with the TQ staff, I felt very welcome and I felt their interest in me. Every time I contact TQ support to get set up with a supplier or to ask a question, they get back to me in a timely manner.
I also liked the fact that they were affiliated with Travel Leaders. I talked with Travel Leaders at a seminar, but I was not a big enough agency to work with them directly.
Since I joined them over six months ago, I have been very pleased. All questions are answered promptly and you feel that they really want you to succeed with your business.
I need to get my facebook account set up yet, but they have a very good forum on their agent site where questions can be asked of other agents. Every agent I have talked to online or at TQ's conference last fall have been very helpful and supportive about my business.
I think I picked the perfect host agency for me.

I just started with TQ the beginning of the year and I'm still in beginning stages but I have booked my first client a group of 4 to a all inclusive resort in Montego Bay. TQ was the first and only HA I interviewed for and they answered all my questions and I would email them back and forth on any questions I had and they responded with in 24hours....I did the research before doing the interview I wrote down 6 HA but out of the 6, only TQ had everything I wanted on top of the great interview I had with them. With the FB support group and the emails coming in I'm never out of the loop on what's goin or deals from suppliers & venders

Travel Quest is the perfect group to join for new travel agents. This host agency provides the tools and guidance you need to get started. Everyone is truly kind and helpful and wants you to succeed. Bonnie and Walt lead a team of professionals who are knowledgeable, enthusiastic, warm and helpful to all agents. They foster the right environment to help agents grow and succeed.

I cant say enough about what a great group of people to work for! I started in 2008 not knowing much about the travel business. Travel Quest has wonderful support and resources. They always got back to me with in the same day. Travel Quest has so many agents to reach out to that really no question goes unanswered. They make you feel like you are part of a large family.
Thanks so much Travel Quest!!

When looking at host agencies, TQ stood out to me from the beginning. Just looking at their website made me want to become part of the TQ family, because that's what it looked like - family. The support and resources you receive as a TQ Independent Agency Owner is incredible. Everyone that answers your phone calls or emails is very professional, understanding and helpful. I appreciate that you can work at your own pace and no one expects more of you - you work as little or as much as you want. You have the best of both worlds - you have your own agency but you have all the support and resources available to you as if you worked at a storefront. I would strong encourage any one to check out TQ when looking for a host agency.

Stop searching for the perfect host agency! It is right here with Travel Quest! I joined just over 2 months ago, brand new to selling travel and I LOVE them. Everyone at TQ will treat you like family from the very beginning. You will receive the best of the best in support. And what about your peers within TQ? - well, let me say this is some of the most knowledgeable, generous, welcoming individuals that I have ever been associated with. Everyone helps everyone - it is truly a community. Travel Quest is an industry leader, so well respected by all. I am proud to be with Travel Quest.
