(237) Client communication? Niches? Quoting Clients?

This week for the Friday 15, we're opening 2026 with OASIS Travel Network and Chelsea! Let’s have some fun, plus some questions to discuss this Friday at 12 pm CST. Join us! Welcome 00:00 Client communication? 01:04 Niches? 04:24 Quoting Clients? 08:14 I have been listening to past Friday15’s and someone mentions that they send an email to prospective clients to explain HOW she is paid (commissions, fees etc). I'm communicating that I will be charging fees in my business, but while I am in my 1st year of business (currently), I am waiving those fees. But I want to have something that explains that to clients right away. What would you suggest including. - Melissa Can or should a new Travel Advisor Niche or Focus on Short Break Itineraries/Travel. 2-4-6 day trips. Why or why not? - Diana What I'm still not clear on are things like this: how do I present options and prices to a client, and give them time to make a decision? Am I supposed to reserve all of the options first to guarantee the price, and then cancel the discarded options afterward? Or do you just present it and hope the prices don't change in the meantime? Are there other good places to find tips or suggestions for effective booking practices? - Christopher M.
