What do Travel agents want from their wholesaler?

Friday, 29 May, 2007 0

Australian travel agents have a vast array of quality wholesale travel, cruise and tour product to choose from and this certainly applies to the Mediterranean region, but what really distinguishes the great from the good.

Greece and Mediterranean Travel Centre say that they know and that they beleive that they offer the best including: –

Product options: Greece and Mediterranean Travel Centre offers a comprehensive range of product in the Med to match most budgets, tastes and preferences.  

Staff knowledge and expertise: Travel agents often need a consultant or a guardian angel at the end of a phone who can act as your backup while you are selling a product to the client in front of you. 

Greece and Mediterranean Travel Centre understands that agents need reservation staff who can process a booking efficiently and also have the skills of a consultant.  GMTC staff know the destinations they sell.

Price and value competitiveness: This is really important for agents who are competing with each other and the internet.

Greece and Mediterranean Travel Centre enables agents to sell product with the confidence that you can be price competitive with other agents and when it comes to apples for apples pricing of accommodation and tours GMTC also very competitive with the web.

GMTC also does not impose credit card surcharges on VISA and Mastercard payments.

The little extras:  Customers also like being recognised and having a momento of a special trip even before they depart Australia.

Destination Greece DVDs, papyrus paintings, Turkish evil eye deflectors are small gifts but they make a big statement; the trip and the customer is special.

Commissions. Greece and Mediterranean Travel Centre’s  basic commissions for travel agents on land product is 12% which is above the standard level.  GMTC knows that supporting agents is important in the areas which matter.

Greece and Mediterranean Travel Centre has also announced that they have been been nominated in the National Tourism Industry Awards, in which they are in Category 20, Best Wholesaler (International Product).
