Dream of ditching the desk job and joining the hundreds of mobile travel agents with MTA enjoying all the benefits that comes with being your own boss?
We don’t blame you – it’s definitely the way of the future.
But first, you’ll need to ask yourself: Do you have what it takes to be a mobile travel agent with MTA?
(Hint: you probably do.)
As a Travel Agent with two years of experience or more, you’re likely to already possess all the skills you need to go mobile.
But being your own boss isn’t for everyone.
Here’s a checklist of five important qualities you’ll need to possess if you dream of plugging out of the 9 to 5 rat race and going out on your own as a mobile travel agent with MTA, enjoying all the freedom, flexibility and fun that being a part of the MTA family entails.
1. You know how to network and market yourself
Do you have the confidence to work a room and get yourself out there?
Fantastic, you’re definitely able to make it on your own as a mobile travel agent.
And even if you feel you lack these skills, MTA can help you, with full in-house marketing support including your own individual website, e-newsletters and advertising templates for local area marketing
2. You want to enjoy a better work/life balance
No more asking the boss for time off, and no more spending precious hours every week stuck in traffic or on public transport.
As a mobile travel agent with MTA you’ll enjoy more freedom in your life, and you can spend your time on the things that you love, such as your family, your kids, and your hobbies.
Or travel – because we know that’s why you’re in this industry in the first place.
3. You’re disciplined and excel at time management
Working for yourself and being your own boss certainly isn’t easy.
As a mobile travel agent with MTA, you’ll need to fit work in around your schedule, and this requires excellent time management skills.
You’ll also need to be disciplined enough to sit at the computer to work – even when no one is watching over you.
Just like any business, your success as a mobile travel agent is entirely up to your effort and professionalism.
4. You desire financial freedom
Take your travel consulting business to the heights of financial success and unlock your earning potential as a mobile travel agent with MTA.
With low start up fees and overheads (there’s no ATAS, rent, staff costs or GDS fees with MTA), the best commissions, and the most competitive deals, you’ll be able to pull in a lot more working on your own than with a traditional office-based agency.
5. You have tons of experience in selling travel
If you’ve worked selling travel in a retail or corporate environment for a couple of years or more, then you’ve most probably figured out most of the ins and outs of the industry. And that means you’re probably ready to go out on your own as a mobile travel agent with MTA.
Obviously the more experience you have, the better.
In fact, most MTA Travel Experts have between 15 and 25 years experience working in major travel agencies across the country.
