A Day In The Life of a 3D Travel Advisor
To understand best, let's look at a booking from beginning to end.
- You get a lead!
- You visit special sites just for travel advisors to collect information.
- You send a quote using the tools and templates we provide you during training, updated with your vision and voice.
- Hooray! Now It's time to plan a trip! Your clients will rely on you for park hours, ship itineraries, special events, dining plans and reservations, refurbishments, ports of call, excursions, and all those tiny travel details that turn a checklist into a dream come true. We have templates for every step of the process, which you will be fully trained to use.
- Of course, you follow up with your client afterward! By then, they won’t know how they lived without you. It’s true! Even the owners of 3D Travel work daily in the industry but rely on a member of the 3D Travel Team to help with their travel planning simply because they know their trained advisors will do it better.
Upholding the standards that will help you grow your business, the consistent process for 3D is Tell - Do - Tell.
Tell
You always tell the client you're going to do something.
- There should be communication within 24 hours
- We encourage communication in 2 hours or less
Do
Then you do what you told the client you would do
Tell
Follow up by telling them you did it
- After the quote, you follow up and discuss your client's choices with them.
- You may need additional quotes to find exactly what meets their needs. We will teach you more about qualifying your client for each specialty. You will become an advocate they can rely on!
- Once you help your client make their best choice, they apply their deposit through our secure credit card authorization form.
- You will then apply the payment directly to the vendor.
- You "Tell - Do - Tell" the payment and enter the information into our customer relationship manager, the database where all client records are kept, which unlocks your commission payments by invoicing 3D Travel.
- Of course, you follow all the security processes you've been trained on to keep information safe and secure.

- One of the last emails/forms you send is for final payment. You will follow the same process you did for the deposit.

And we do it with a heart for you to succeed, while still taking time to care for your family, your faith, and yourself! What’s most important to you? That doesn’t need to change in order to achieve success. We encourage boundaries and kindness, not just to your clients but also to yourself!
