You could avoid the expenses of all of the above items. Let Modern Travel Services handle all of your ARC needs. You get a percentage of all air commissions on those carriers that still pay commissions. You also don't need your CRS contract either; saving you even more money. Without your need for ARC appointment, you don't have the restrictions on the type, location, and security of a retail office space. This allows you to choose a less expensive office location or move your agency to your home office. Modern Travel Services provides you with access to Amadeus Vista CRS system that allows you to book air, car, hotel, rail, cruise, and tour bookings.
With our Vacation.com consortium membership, you are able to participate in Vacation.com events, and their marketing program. The "IC Engagment Program" that allows you to participate in a direct mail marketing program is only $75 per year. There is at least one direct mail offer each quarter. At this price, you can't do it yourself for less than this when you take into account the cost of the paper, ink, time, postage, and negotiating with the vendor for that particular special promotion.
Review your income statements to realize the cost saving benefits of dropping your ARC appointment, CRS shortfall fees, CRS payments and rent. With these expenses eliminated, many agents realize the ease of making money again in the travel industry.
Don't be fooled by franchises or consortia that require high monthly fees, storefront requirements, and ARC requirements. All of these may be eliminated which will greatly improve your bottom line. Make the change now!
