Award-winning homeworking company, The Travel Franchise, is inviting new franchisees to join its 650-strong ‘family’ of homeworking travel consultants. 

With 98 per cent of its franchisees having never worked in the travel industry prior to joining, The Travel Franchise has perfected a tried-and-tested business model with ongoing training and agent support the foundation of its success. 

To reveal more about its secrets to success, the company is holding a dedicated Discovery evening on 3rd September at 7pm at a hotel near London Heathrow.

Here attendees will not only hear from the company co-founder Paul Harrison but will also meet the company’s infamous celebrity supporters:

• Broadcaster Eamonn Holmes OBE
• Double Olympic gold medalist Daley Thompson CBE
• TV presenter Hayley Sparkes 

 Hosting the event, Harrison will explain the business model and how he, together with his business partner Steve Witt, have helped hundreds of people build a successful travel business from home – some working part time, full time or in their spare time.

Discovery Events usually take place at different locations around the UK and typically last around two hours with Harrison detailing the different franchise options, which start from just £2,995, and revealing future plans for the company (including some that are not shared online). 

“This particular Discovery Event comes at the perfect time when our consultants are reporting record holiday bookings and travel is booming,” says Harrison. 

“What’s more, anyone who decides to invest in one of our franchises could reserve one of the last few training places at the end of the month. This means they’ll have November and December to get up to speed planning and booking holidays and be ready for the travel industry’s ‘peak’ booking season – the January to March period when agents typically sell four times as many holidays than any other time of the year.”

The Travel Franchise and its customer-facing brand Not Just Travel have an eclectic and impressive trio of celebrities that champion the company.

Brand ambassador and TV presenter Hayley Sparkes accompanies the company on many of its overseas mentorship retreats and has a particular talent for coaching the consultants on presenting and social media skills.

Meanwhile, Olympic champion and brand ambassador Daley Thompson,CBE, is a regular attendee at many of the company’s conferences and overseas training retreats. Having just returned from the Olympics in Paris with Team GB he clearly knows the importance of training. 

“In my opinion, no other travel franchise offers better training, mentoring and support than Not Just Travel. I’ve seen them in action – how the company transforms people’s lives through the training and development programmes, conferences and incredible trips abroad.”

Earlier this year, the company hit the headlines once again when it announced that TV broadcaster Eamonn Holmes, OBE, would be the latest high-profile celebrity to join the company as a brand spokesperson. Holmes, who is now a regular voice on the company’s travel podcast, has been a long-time supporter of travel agents.

“I think it's fascinating that the majority of consultants have never worked in travel before, yet they've chosen to retrain and do something completely different, to start a new adventure in travel.

“I can’t wait to meet new budding travel entrepreneurs and see their faces when Paul reveals how they can get paid for planning holidays from home. I always say that if you do something you love, you will never work a day in your life.”

This Discovery Event promises to inspire potential franchisees to move into the exciting world of travel, not only booking holidays but also travelling themselves. 

Harrison will reveal how agents can easily earn a very attractive salary and will explain how the company’s unique Money-Back Challenge has seen scores of agents win back their entire franchise fee – essentially getting their business for free!Tickets to attend this event are limited and cost just £10 – refundable upon attendance.
