I set up this Challenge, because I want people to adopt a winning mindset from the get go. If our consultants are successful then we are too.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe franchise fee pays for the business infrastructure, booking technology, plus the ongoing training and support we offer to every one of our consultants. But if they make enough sales, then they generate enough profit to justify us returning that investment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The roster of winners is proof that it can be done and this year alone The Travel Franchise has already crowned three businesses Money-Back Challenge winners.<\/p>\n<p>With record sales (January was the best in the company\u2019s history), could this be the year that more people achieve it than ever before?<\/p>\n<p>This could explain why the franchise has seen rising demand for its Elite franchise package and why there is a waiting list to train to become a travel consultant with the award-winning company.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2024 Winners: Paul and Tracy<\/strong> <strong>Franklin<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The latest franchisees to smash the Challenge, crossing the finish line in just 10 months after setting up their company, are Paul and Tracy. Despite working full time as police officers and being busy parents to three children, this couple proved themselves to be a force to be reckoned with and found the Challenge hard but achievable by simply booking holidays in their spare time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe support we\u2019ve had from everyone in the company is incredible \u2013\u00a0from our business development manager through to the other travel consultants in our mentorship group. No one wishes you anything but good luck and there&#8217;s no jealousy. I often joke when I say that everyone who works in travel must be on some sort of drug because they&#8217;re always so happy!\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>2024 Winners: Liz and Louis<\/strong> <strong>Larman<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-21827 alignright\" title=\"Picture2\" src=\"https:\/\/www.franchiselocal.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Picture2-1-230x300.png\" alt=\"Picture2\" width=\"121\" height=\"158\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.franchiselocal.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Picture2-1-230x300.png 230w, https:\/\/www.franchiselocal.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Picture2-1-784x1024.png 784w, https:\/\/www.franchiselocal.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Picture2-1-768x1004.png 768w, https:\/\/www.franchiselocal.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Picture2-1-321x420.png 321w, https:\/\/www.franchiselocal.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Picture2-1-643x840.png 643w, https:\/\/www.franchiselocal.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Picture2-1-150x196.png 150w, https:\/\/www.franchiselocal.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Picture2-1-300x392.png 300w, https:\/\/www.franchiselocal.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Picture2-1-600x784.png 600w, https:\/\/www.franchiselocal.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Picture2-1-696x909.png 696w, https:\/\/www.franchiselocal.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Picture2-1.png 1014w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 121px) 100vw, 121px\" \/>With the Challenge well and truly in their sights, just a week before the deadline, the cancellation of a huge group booking jeopardised their chances of winning. But by working around the clock, Liz and Louis pulled in enough last-minute bookings to achieve the Challenge.

So it\u2019s worth aiming for, even if you don\u2019t get there.\u201d But she did.<\/p>\n<p>While Harrison does not pretend the Challenge is easy, he believes it can be done if consultants book just two holidays a week.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI acknowledge it\u2019s not a walk in the park \u2013\u00a0that\u2019s why we call it a Challenge. But it can be done, as more and more consultants are proving. The travel market is booming right now and more people are recognising the benefits of booking their holidays via a personal travel consultant.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>For more information on how to launch your own travel consultancy OR get a free magazine about the business, go to our website.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Record holiday bookings indicates that 2024 could be the year that The Travel Franchise refunds more successful franchisees than ever before ONE OF the many factors that makes The Travel Franchise stand out from other travel franchises is its unique Money-Back Challenge.
