How Your Travel Agency is Ripping You Off
Did you know that travel is the world?s largest, fastest-growing industry? Currently at $7 TRILLION each year and growing 23% faster than the global economy, Travel is expected to double to $10 TRILLION by the end of the decade.
The average American spends $2,800 each year on vacations. Tourism accounts for 10.9% of all consumer spending worldwide. Travel spending alone averages $1.4 billion per day, that?s $59 million per hour.
What your local travel agent doesn't want you to know is that now you can turn this powerful industry into your own home-based travel agency. On top of it all everyone loves to travel, and everyone loves to travel at wholesale prices.
Statistics say that 74% of all individuals who have acquired huge wealth, have done it by being self-employed business owners. When surveyed, 96% of people between the ages of 25 and 44 said they wanted to have their own business, but they just didn?t know how to get started.
Small and home-based businesses are the fastest growing segment of the U.S. economy. Online travel is the fastest growing segment of the travel agency community.
With the large and mid-sized companies laying off people and cutting back, corporate America is no longer a stable place to be. Everyone is looking for a home-based business that can be the high performance vehicle that takes them into the future along with big time savings in tax advantages.
The Internet is the fastest growth technology in the history of the world. Every three seconds a new person goes online. Consumers spent over $37 BILLION on travel web sites in 2003, up from $30.8 billion in 2002.
Booking travel online is perhaps the most successful niche of all the world?s e-commerce efforts. Consumers use the Internet to become better informed, save time, and save money. Experts predict online travel has only scratched the surface of what will become a transformed marketplace in the next few years.
Did you know that travel professionals can earn deep discounts when they travel? See, when a travel professional stays at a expensive resort, one of the biggest secrets is that the vendor often extends deep disounts to that professional. In my experience, I've seen $25/day cruises and resorts with up to 87% off their rack rates. Its not uncommon to even stay complimentary. What's better than FREE?
