A recruitment drive has been started by homeworking agency business Travel Counsellors.
The campaign focuses on ‘seeing the world through different eyes’ and uses a number of examples to explain how new recruits can utilise the company’s ‘System of Success’ to guide them to find new customers and build relationships with them.
It highlights how agents are able to use various items and activities they do on a daily basis to build their client base and ultimately their businesses.
This ranges from the number of contacts in their mobile phones and friends on Facebook to going to the local gym or hairdressers.
Potential recruits will be directed to a new area within the company’s website (www.travelhomeworking.co.uk/openyoureyes) which has been designed to demonstrate to agents how they can embrace the tools, support and guidance provided by the company in order to build their client base.
A special facility which allows them to see how much they could potentially earn in their first year is included through listing elements such as the number of houses in their street, contacts in their address book and number of children at local schools.
This then calculates an agent’s estimated potential earnings based on the company’s average conversion, sales value and commission.
Travel Counsellors managing director Steve Byrne said: “Many experienced travel professionals like the idea of running their own business from home and the freedom and flexibility this brings, but may wonder where their customers will come from.
“Every day we are mixing with people; some we know, some we don’t. The trick is spotting the opportunity to communicate with these people so that next time they want to book a holiday or business trip, they remember you.
“e have a tried and tested ‘System of Success’ to support and guide our agents when it comes to gaining business and opening their eyes to new opportunities. The new campaign and website focuses on this and gives further insight into how we can support agents in gaining new customers and then ensuring they give these customers the service that guarantees they stays with the agent for life.”
Byrne added: “We provide agents with a range of tools to make contact with these potential clients.
“This includes personalised posters, leaflets and other marketing materials. We also provide them with the skills and tools they need to keep in contact with them and we ensure they will always have a dedicated Business Development Executive available to advise and motivate them. It’s all about thinking outside of the box and having the backup and support of a winning team, providing an exceptional service that ensures once an agent gains these customers they retain them.”
