VISION TRAVEL
Tiers & Tracking Reports
Vision’s services include Vision Trakr, a TRAMS database and exclusive back-end portal so sales can be tracked hourly by not just totals but also by product and by supplier.
Preferred Suppliers
“We are known for our luxury and active travel specialties, but appreciate that many clients want more ‘mainstream’ product,” says Vision’s Vice-President, Leisure Travel, Lynda Sinclair. “So we know you need to close the sale and that should there be any issues it’s important that you have the support of a preferred supplier relationship. We aren’t militant about our independent travel advisors selling non-preferreds, but most advisors know and appreciate the advantages. Also, given our strength as the largest Canadian-owned travel agency group in the country, we have an extensive offering for business travellers for the ITA who chooses to work in the corporate travel field.”
Referral Programs
Vision supplies leads both at the agency level and through fellow advisors, trade shows and advertising. Virtuoso also has an extensive and successful online referral program, notes Sinclair. Vision also offers a referral program for Vision agents who bring in other agents.
