What is an "aligned client"?
For a travel advisor who is building their business, an aligned client is someone who is a good fit for the niche, service, and type of travel you serve and sell. An aligned client is someone in partnership with YOU, who respects YOUR time, energy and boundaries. They are willing to work alongside and partner with you in a respectful, relational manner following the YOUR lead through your sales process.
This exercise is something I take all my coaching clients through and it helps us have this aligned client in mind as we navigate the sales and marketing process for their business.
To help you get into the mindset of attracting your Aligned Client, you will need to begin identifying your Aligned Client using the following prompts and questions.
From the moment a prospect reaches out to you, they are on a service-based sales experience. EVERY single interaction with you needs to have THEIR best interests, needs, desires and vacation-vision in mind. You'll want to take them on an intuitive journey but it doesn't end at the sale. The client experience lasts until they have dropped their bags on their foyer floor, where they begin dreaming of their next trip almost immediately despite any bumps in the road. They will only feel this way if you have partnered with them and created a feeling of ease from start to finish. Level up your service-game with this 30 minute masterclass packed full of ways to build a relationship after the deposit has been placed.
You are more than a booking agent. You deeply care for those who trust you with their vacations. It's time to show them through actionable, well-timed touch points and relationship building strategies so they come back year after year and referring their friends.
The No BS Travel Advisor Podcast will tackle the real life travel advisor challenges, experiences and mindset shifts that will inspire and encourage you to transform YOUR business and step into your CEO era! I am so excited to welcome travel advisors from all over the country with a variety of experience to discuss how my coaching and courses have changed the way they are doing business.
Following my No BS Methods means rebelling against hustle culture and proving that you do not need to sacrifice your mental health, life and time to build a fun, profitable travel business. I hope you'll join the conversation where we will discuss hot "off limit" topics like toxic host agency relationships, how to manage those tire-kicker prospects, what it means to really fire a client, and what it takes to actually make commissions with a comma.
Get ready to stop faking it until you make it and instead, grow your confidence to accept progress over perfection. Buckle up for the no bullshit real talk that you never knew you needed and learn to give less fucks about what people "think you do all day" and take ownership of running the business you want to run, how you want to run it.
I am changing the conversation with a focus on women in the travel industry and cannot wait to share their stories with you!
