Travel Leaders Network is one of the largest sellers of luxury travel, cruises, and tours in the industry. Representing over 5,700 travel agency locations across the United States and Canada, TLN uses the power of parent company, Internova, to assist millions of leisure and business travellers annually.
In our series, “Belong, Inspire, Grow” with TLN, we’re diving into the different aspects of the company to help you determine if joining TLN is right for you. So far we’ve broken down technology into two parts; and now we are exploring their Preferred Partnerships.
It’s important to understand how these work in tandem with TLN’s booking solutions.
This integration is exclusive to TLN and allows agencies to be more competitive in their individual markets. Using the leverage the company has with its Preferred Partnerships, provides exclusive added value and amenities to your agency’s clients. All of the programs and services TLN provides can help not only to secure the business at point of sale but also year after year.
Each of TLN’s products and services build on one another under the premise, that you can pick and choose what you utilize in the toolkit. If you are an agency that specializes in cruise, TLN has the solution whether it is Marketing, Training, or Cruise Supplier Partnerships; TLN supports that specialization. If you are an agency that is Luxury focused, TLN has that technology, marketing, and those Preferred Partnerships as well.
These pillars support however the agency wishes to go to market – again they can pick and choose at will, or if they suddenly shift their business model from all about cruise to Luxury, TLN has the ability to help with that transition.
"I am a strong supporter of travel consortium affiliations and have been for the past 45 years plus that I’ve been in the travel industry," Judy Hupponen, North Star Travel and Tours tells TravelPulse Canada.
"We go all the way back to GIANTS ( Greater Independent Association of National Travels Suppliers ) in the early 70’s to the Travel Leaders Network with whom we have been associated with since June 2023. A consortia relationship gives us the flexibility to operate our agency under our terms and still benefit from higher commission levels and ongoing staff training and support that is second to none.
The TL Network has gone above and beyond my expectations and we are excited to be part of the amazing organization and has leadership that puts travel agencies first."
Choosing to partner with a network that offers integrated technology tools will encourage you to improve efficiencies and increase productivity which is key to agency growth. TLN offers just that – with an entire network behind you to help showcase your expertise and ensure you’re always one step ahead.
Stay tuned for our next installment of TLN: Belong, Inspire and Grow where we look at the educational and marketing tools that will support your agency’s continued success.
