TTAND Completes 17 Roadshows for Agent Partners Across Canada

The Travel Agent Next Door just completed a series of roadshows for over 700 of its agent partners in 17 cities across Canada from Moncton to Victoria hosted by TTAND founder Flemming Friisdahl, TTAND COO Jeff Element and TTAND Director of Marketing, Christine Ufniak.

“I am so happy to have been able to do the across Canada road shows, hitting 17 of our larger populated agent cities and having the chance to meet new agents personally --as well as seeing old friends, “ said Flemming Friisdahl, TTAND CEO. “Jeff and I had the pleasure to do all this over a 10 -day period, ensuring we get to spend time with our partner agents one on one”

He added: “ This year’s road shows are a 40 percent increase from previous years and they are an amazing opportunity for our agent partners to meet their fellow TTAND agents!”

TTAND executives Flemming Friisdahl and Jeff Element gave updates on a new program that will be launched early next year before the TTAND conference in April.

The new technology revolutionizes the way a host agency will work. It is a single system solution, that includes a 100% customizable website from the base bar to every section, including images and videos.

TTAND will be the only host agency with 8 booking engines --including the best ITC booking engine.

TTAND has also created a system of integrated forms allowing agents to collect everything from pictures of client passports, Nexus and Visas-- to all the supplier forms and creating a simple flow for the booking process.

TTAND also demonstrated the new Phenix program which is being introduced in Canada through TTAND’s partnership with UK-based Travel Counsellors. Travel Counsellors has sales of over $2 billion CDN and $1 billion is booked through Phenix.

“Phenix is a dynamic packaging program that will allow TTAND agent partners to have access to Airline TOUR NETS, making TTAND the only host agency with access to Tour Nets with AC, Porter, Transat, Air France, Delta, Virgina Atlantic and KLM. No other Canadian host agency has these contracts ---and this will allow TTAND agents to increase their margins significantly,” said Friisdahl.
