WHAT'S IT ALL ABOUT?
Hi, I'm Shannon! I'm lucky enough to live by the coast in beautiful Devon. Ever since I can remember, I've been obsessed with holidays and exploring new places around the world. So far, Costa Rica has stolen my heart, but my goal is to visit as many places as possible and experience all the wonders the world has to offer!
But like many of us, I realised that working a full-time job for the next 40+ years wasn't going to give me the freedom I needed to turn my travel dreams into reality. That's when I found this amazing opportunity and started my business as an independent travel agent. Now I get to travel smarter and help others do the same - all while building a future that will let me live on my own terms.
I'm super excited to see where this journey will take me!
WHAT DOES TRAVELLING SMARTER ACTUALLY MEAN?
It’s actually really simple, every booking you ever make whether direct to a hotel, through a search engine or travel agent has commission built in. By becoming an independent travel agent you can earn those commissions on your own travel, as well as when you book for friends and family too!
SO, HOW CAN THIS HELP ME?
If you love holidays, and already book your own trips, you deserve to earn that commission. I believe that everyone that enjoys going on holiday can benefit from this.
Maybe you're happy with how often you go away, but you'd like to earn the commission to pay for something else?
Maybe you're happy with your holiday budget, but you'd like to earn travel commissions so you can go away more often?
Maybe you'd like to earn an additional income, to improve your quality of life?
Or maybe you'd like a complete change of career, and would like to build a travel business and be able to work on your own terms?
The best thing is, you get to choose!

FAQS
WHY DID YOU BECOME AN INDEPENDENT TRAVEL AGENT?
I was already researching, planning and booking my own holidays already, so when I found out I could be earning commission on things I was doing anyway, it was a no-brainer to me!
And since this is something I really enjoy, I thought why not offer my services to friends and family too!
WHO ARE YOU PARTNERED WITH?
Our host agency is over 30 years old, and is a proud partner of ABTA and ATOL. They are also partnered with over 70 suppliers, who provide great training and support to us, and we have developed a close working relationship. Some of these suppliers are well known household names, whilst others are trade only suppliers. We also have affiliate partnerships with many major hotel brands, and can complete additional training with them to specialise in their properties.
WHAT TYPES OF HOLIDAYS CAN YOU BOOK?
You can book flights, Eurostar, hotels, villas, package holidays, organised tours, yoga retreats, ski trips, airport parking, airport lounges, transfers, car hire, activities, theatre tickets, spa breaks, theme parks, the options are endless!
DO I NEED PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE IN THE TRAVEL INDUSTRY?
No - the only experience I had was booking our own holidays as a hobby! We have extensive free training with all our suppliers as well as constant in-house company training. The training is all online, and is accessible 24 hours a day, 7 days a week so is super flexible around your other commitments.
WHEN AND HOW ARE TRAVEL COMMISSIONS PAID?
Travel commissions are paid on the 15th and 30th of each month, 30 - 90 days after the travel has been completed. Once the host agency has received the commission from the supplier, they will arrange to pay you your share. Travel commissions start on a 70:30 split with 70% going to you, and 30% going to the host agency. Once you have earned £3500 in travel commissions, your share of the commission goes up to 80%!
ARE THERE ANY FEES?
Yes - you pay a one off fee of £142 to set up your home based travel agency. Then it's only £32 a month (which you start paying 30 days after joining)
In the USA the one off fee is $179.95, followed by $39.95 a month.
In ROI the one off fee is €169 followed by €39 a month.
WHAT IF I JOIN AND CHANGE MY MIND?
That's absolutely fine! If you decide to give it a go, and find it's not for you after all, you can leave at any time. There are no contracts, and no penalties for leaving. In fact, if you decide to cancel within 30 days of joining, you will be given a full refund of your enrollment fees. And if you don't earn and / or save more in your first year, than it costs you in fees, InteleTravel will refund you the difference.
I DON'T LIVE IN THE UK, CAN I STILL JOIN?
Yes, our travel host agency currently operates in the UK, Republic of Ireland, USA, Barbados, Puerto Rico, Jamaica, Guadeloupe, St Kitts and Nevis, Bahamas, Trinidad and Tobago, Panama, Cayman Islands, Bermuda, Belize, Guam, Dominican Republic, Virgin Islands, Turks and Caicos, Micronesia and Mexico - and is set to expand further too, so if you live in a country outside of this list feel free to ask me about future expansion plans and watch this space!
