The Travel Agent Next Door has announced expansion plans into the Quebec market, offering its host agency services to Quebec travel advisors and agencies.
“We are extremely excited to offer our services and support to Quebec agents,” said TTAND founder, Flemming Friisdahl. “We have had many requests from Quebec agents and we feel the time is right now for us to enter Quebec.”
TTAND will leverage its membership in Ensemble to offer a French magazine, a range of French language marketing services and tools – as well as a French website for agents.
“The website and marketing services and tools will be ready in a couple of months, “said Friisdahl.
Friisdahl said he looks forward to personally meeting with Quebec agents.
The Travel Agent Next Door celebrated its 7th birthday in March and in those 7 years has reached over $500 million in sales. The organization now counts 508 Primary Agents and 380 Associate Agents-- with 45 staff support staff, which TTAND says gives them “the highest ratio of support staff to agents in the industry.”
“This past year has been a devastating one but it has also created opportunities,” said Friisdahl. “We will be ready when the rebound comes—and there are strong signals that it is coming later this year –and even stronger in 2022.”
