- I actually plan travel... I do not simply pull it off a pre-set menu like other travel agencies do;
- Travel experiences are designed around client specific wants, needs, and cost parameters – I am not in the business of selling you something... I work for you;
- Unlike others in the travel business, I check messages 7 days a week, and return phone calls and e-mail inquiries – ASAP. Good communication is the key to great service;
- Best of all... you have an established relationship with a person you know... who is always there and available – when you need them.
I work within client-defined parameters and existing vendor inventory options for each travel plan...to insert as much variety and pleasure into your business travel experience as is humanly possible.
Clients who use my services experience near zero planning stresses, extremely reliable and safe travel, and frequently comment on the vacation-like feel they experience while traveling on business.
DETAIL:
The business travel planning experience you can anticipate:
The first time you travel with me, I will collect and enter all of your personal information, payment preferences, frequent traveler information, and your personal travel preferences into my secure off-line data system.
Thereafter, all you have to do is send me an e-mail me indicating where you want to go, the date and time preferences for travel, and a list of any special needs you may have for a particular trip.
While you are relaxing and enjoying your free time, I immediately start researching your travel request.
You will receive an e-mail with a “short list” of travel options, (and applicable related comments and recommendations).
You then either choose the itinerary you like best, or should at least one of the choices not exactly match your needs, simply call or e-mail me with any questions or revisions desired.
If required, I then fine-tune the travel plan, and return it for final review and approval.
Once the travel plan is what you want, you send me an e-mail indicating your final choice... and I then finalize and book your travel.
Should any unexpected issues occur at time of final booking, I will immediately notify you - so I can quickly resolve them to your satisfaction.
I complete your ticketing, send it off by priority mail, and notify you by e-mail what day you should expect your document set to arrive at your mailing address.
You open you travel document package, review the contents, if necessary call me with any final questions, and - you are ready to walk out the door. You will look forward to this package each time you travel... it will feel like a gift.
Your business travel will be reliable, low stress, and hassle free with no surprises along the way.
If you should have problems traveling for any reason, or need to change your plans... if the back-doors I build into your travel plan to address most issues do not address your needs, simply call or e-mail me 24/7 ...and I will respond to your message ASAP.
Business Travel will become the single consistent time during which you can relax and enjoy some down time on business trips. You will actually look forward to travel again!
Additional Benefits:
I supply clients with emergency safety, health, and weather updates and other relevant travel advisories on an on-going live basis... so if something comes to my attention through my agent travel information alert network which may affect your travel plan... you will be immediately notified in live time - wherever you may be in the world.
On a frequent basis throughout the year, I supply clients with up-to-date breaking travel news...
via my “e-WEEKLY NEWSLETTERS”, which will help you plan future business (and personal) travel.
