As a company operating in over 70 countries, the Globus family of brands know many ways to say, “thank you”. There’s cảm ơn in Vietnamese, asante in Swahili, and obrigado in Portuguese. They’re also great at sharing their heartfelt thanks to you, their beloved agents, through great service, fun events, and wow-worthy fam trips. Now’s your turn to return the favour as GFOB has been nominated for three NTIA awards!
It’s one thing to put your heart and soul into not only your passengers but the people who connect travellers to tours (that’s you); it’s another to be recognised for it!
Imagine the excitement across the business – from the tour leaders to the project managers to the sales team – when the Globus family of brands discovered their NTIA nominations!
Here’s what they’re up for:

The secret to their success
We’ve been closely watching the Globus family of brands for a while now. Yes, we’re preternaturally nosy, but also curious to learn the secrets of thriving businesses.
We’ve kept an eye on what you say about them at events, the upbeat chit-chat seen online, and the gushing post-fam praise.
Here’s what we’ve noticed as the key to their success:
- Outstanding sales support: Whether it’s a question about the cleaning products used in Avalon Waterways’ Panorama Suites, a client wondering whether seeing whales is common on this Globus Iceland adventure, or you need assistance for a huge group booking that will set you up financially for the year (hurrah), the sales teams at GFOB are ready to spring into action. (BTW, the answers are eco-friendly; it’s in the name; all hands will be on deck to help you land that booking.)
- Top commissions: Being rewarded fairly for your work ethic, your networking and business-building skills, and your ability to connect a client to their perfect tour is something the team at Globus family of brands takes seriously. That’s why you receive healthy commissions for every sale.
- Low hold times: Who has time to wait? Not us and not you! The GFOB commitment to minimal waiting times means less time listening to muzak and more time booking your customers on their perfect holiday.
- Perks: If you missed the news, Globus, Cosmos, and Avalon Waterways recently launched their Advisor Appreciation Program, offering rewards for all you do. Rise through their four tiers – bronze, silver, gold, and platinum – to net rewards like cash, discounted tour rates, and additional marketing budgets to help you smash your sales targets.
- Fams & incentives: Travel is the ultimate thank you for most of us, with fam trips with Globus, Cosmos, and aboard Avalon Waterways on the annual calendar to introduce you in the best way possible to travelling the GFOB way.
- All the fun: If you haven’t attended one of GFOB’s fun local sales events, you’re in for a treat when you do. Like a paint and sip class in celebration of Avalon’s new Bordeaux program, a Day of Discovery winery tour or a tasty Canada Day lunch!.
