The Travel Franchise leads from the front of UK travel franchising. For 20 years we’ve been giving people like you the tools to build your business and become your own boss from anywhere in the world.
How does it work?
- Take our “excellent” one-week training course
- Start selling trips and holidays from Day One
- Enjoy excellent terms with 450+ travel suppliers
- Find unlimited travel options for your customers
- Get insider deals, packages & prices the public never see
- Choose from endless ABTA and ATOL protected holidays
That’s just a handful of reasons we’ve been named UK Homeworking Agency of the Year six times and Best Travel Franchise in the UK by Elite Business Awards. It’s also why our founders were just recognised in the British Business Excellent Awards.
The Travel Franchise offers you a real chance to follow your passion and set yourself free from the 9-5.
There are two flexible packages now starting from £2,995.
We’ll also give you:
- A personal website and custom-made software & IT
- Around £3million in daily travel-buying power
- 40 years of goodwill as part of the Hays Travel group
- Ongoing mentorship from your Partnership Manager
- Social media, marketing and head-office paperwork done for you
- Any choice of hours to build your business the way you want
You can build a travel business around yourself and your family, enjoying incentives and familiarisation trips and then sending friends on those same escapes – all with the shoreline just in view just beyond your toes.
And there’s real money to be made
Our most successful franchisees aren’t rare cases: they’re turning over £100k in eight weeks, £1m in three months, £76k in one booking, £340k in a year - the Success Stories are just a click away. And you’ll love our industry-leading commission: up-to 85% of your sales are yours to keep.
Our mentors and founders are with you for the whole of your franchise journey. They’re regularly on-hand at our 5-Star trips and events, investing time and capital into the business they love - including a headline-making £1m from January to June this year.
You might even meet our brand ambassador, former Olympian Daley Thomson CBE!
With that kind of support, many of our agents earn way more than they expected. Some – like Becky, Ross, Maureen, Ben, Suzy and many more - even winning their franchise fee back with our unique Money-Back Challenge.
Ready to follow your dream?
Despite the exclusive treatment, our doors are wide open to newcomers: almost none of our members have a background in this business, just a passion for travel.
All this gives our franchisees the right to be confident: the trips you sell to your clients are more than just dreams come true, they’re part of a real-life partnership that cares about all the journeys we’re on.
EWIF Spotlight | Becky Westaway
Mum of two, Becky, made her first holiday booking in her first week after training with The Travel Franchise in December 2021.
Within four months she’d taken an £80k holiday booking.
By seven months she’d achieved the Travel Franchise’s unique Money-Back Challenge, meaning she had sold enough holidays that the company refunded her £14,995 franchise fee.
By the end of her first year she sold £1 million-worth of holidays and is travelling the world when she’s not helping the kids with their homework.
All this despite the fact that Becky had never worked in travel before. She was a PR guru who wanted to spend more time with her kids and less time in the office. And as she loved holidays and networking she chose us - the number one travel franchise for people new to travel.
Becky thinks having her own business has changed her own life and she wants others like you to think about following in her footsteps. Why? Because Becky now feels better than ever and she wants others to feel that way too.
“It’s definitely changed my life for the better. Everyone tells me I look great, smile more and I don’t have dark circles under my eyes. I’m happier… If you have the motivation, you love to travel and you love people and networking, it’s a great opportunity.”
The Travel Franchise is supporting the work of industry organisation Encouraging Women Into Franchising (EWIF) by sharing a series of stories from a number of women to show how its possible to build highly successful full- and part-time businesses around other jobs or busy family lives.
EWIF is a not-for-profit organisation run entirely by volunteers, providing advice and guidance to women looking for a route into the franchise industry. Its aim is to encourage women to consider buying a franchise, to encourage businesswomen to franchise their existing operations and to help franchisors attract more women to their networks.
