Twin Horizons Travel's Susan Schneider Talks About Travel Agent Success

Podcast Number 410

SHOW NOTES

Susan Schneider brings her energy and dynamic personality to the Home Based Travel Agent Show to talk about how her travel agency became a success. This is a story of twin sisters who turned their passion for travel into a successful travel business. Susan was not without challenges and her greatest challenge was when she lost her twin to cancer. This devastating loss moved her business from a brick and mortar store to a home-based business. But, during their time together, Susan and Robin made a big impact on the travel business in Columbus, Ohio where they were popular radio personalities on WOSU, the local public radio station. Susan and Robin were also frequent contributors to suburban newspapers around Columbus where they entertained and informed thousands of readers. In this podcast, you will hear Susan's story and learn about how she and her sister created a successful travel business.

Leveraging Social Media to Fire Up Your Business With Matt Bertram

Podcast Number 409

SHOW NOTES

Times have changed and your business success is now tied to how well you market on social media. Marketing on social media is more than just pushing out the information that you have on your business card. You must define what makes you different, develop a unique selling proposition, and then develop your reputation as an authority within your travel specialties. There are other steps too, including defining who your ideal customer is and then targeting those ideal customers using the social media tool you are most comfortable with. Does this sound difficult? It really isn't. Matt Bertram, our guest for this show, explains the details. This is a show you may want to listen to twice and, in addition, pick up Matt's book. I purchased Matt's book after we recorded the interview and you will not find better advice on how to develop your social media strategy. I bought the Kindle edition of the book and it was only $2.99 -- a great value for information that can boost your sales beyond what you might think possible. Please keep in mind that I'm receiving no compensation from Matt or his company for touting his advice or his book. This is just great information that can make a big difference for your business.
