207 - Protecting Your Valuable Time and Locking in Commissions

Podcast Number 207

Your time is valuable as a travel professional. A "Plan to Go" agreement will separate serious clients from those who are shopping and using your expertise but not giving you their business. Barry and Lorene discuss the "Plan to Go" agreement described by author Tom Ogg in the Travel Trade magazine. Barry points out a couple of caveats not discussed in the article you may consider before using a "Plan to Go" agreement.
