As I promote TravelSalesRep.com, the travel industry’s first and only web-based sales representative to industry suppliers, I find there are two types of marketers – the kind that swim in the roped-off sea of ideas and those that work the open ocean of opportunity.  I’d like you to consider taking the next step beyond simply sending out specials, newsletters, press releases, traditional sales people and the like.  I’d like to introduce you to the idea of doing sales calls on-line.

The Basics

Let’s run down the service that I successfully provide to travel industry suppliers.  Nearly five years ago I created the concept of an online sales call and first presented it to 4,000 of the New England travel agents that I’d called on as a traditional sales rep since 1984.  To date that number has exploded and I now eSales Call on nearly 50,000 travel retailers in the United States and Canada.  This unique group of agents is made up of both “Main Street” TA’s as well as a large number of the hard to reach Outside Agents that work from their home office. 

TravelSalesRep.com

• takes the place of or augments a traditional road-based sales team,
   

• gets you in front of those TA’s that are darn near impossible to visit by any other means and,
   

• is both demonstrably successful and totally unique in our industry. 

There literally is no downside my Internet-based sales calls.  The monthly retainer to employ this service translates to approximately 1 cent per travel agent.  While this is the kind of marketing tool that works best over the long term, the agreement does include a termination clause that calls for a simple thirty days notice.    

Understand that what we are talking about is not a bulk emailing campaign that simply sends out specials, but rather a true, Internet-based, 24/7 sales call.  Likewise, an eSales Call is not a newsletter either.  It is a completely unique concept that has never before been done and has yet to be duplicated.

Who Uses & Endorses TravelSalesRep.com?

The Association of Retail Travel Agents (ARTA) and Outside Sales Support Network (OSSN) have both endorsed TravelSalesRep.com.  Note that TravelSalesRep.com represents only a limited number of suppliers and will not represent two companies that directly compete against each other.  This policy is unique amongst Internet-based marketing organizations in today's travel industry.
