IRVING, TX — Nexion Travel Group has named its 2021 Canadian Rising Star – Gillian Boucher of Barrie, Ontario.

Boucher, owner of Dèrive Travel and a member of Nexion Travel Group-Canada, was honoured for showing great promise in the early years of opening, and for taking advantage of Nexion’s programs and tools, delivering excellent sales numbers, and demonstrating the ability to become a long-term success with the Group.

“Gillian is a success not only because of her experience and positive attitude but also because of the smart way she leverages Nexion Travel Group tools to achieve her goals,” said Mike Foster, President of Nexion Travel Group-Canada.

Boucher, who completed her training and joined Nexion Travel Group-Canada in November 2019, is an avid user of the company’s lead generation tool Agent Profiler, which has helped her secure new clients. Although the pandemic consumed the majority of her travel advisor career thus far, she has still managed to post impressive sales numbers.

“The timing of her entry to the industry, and what happened only months later would have been discouraging to many people,” added Foster. “However, Gillian has met the challenge with ease and continues to thrive. She is putting in place a firm foundation to ensure her business succeeds not only in the present, but far in the future. Nexion Travel Group-Canada is so proud to name her our 2021 Rising Star.”

As a mother of four, Boucher has a special focus on all-inclusive and family-friendly properties in Mexico and the Caribbean. She has boosted her knowledge through active participation on NexionTown, Nexion’s private platform for members to share ideas and advice, and has also attended many Nexion Travel Group learning events. She plans to complete her Leisure Certification in the near future.
