Press Release Summary = Entrepreneur becomes a home based travel agent and helps people start online travel businesses.
Press Release Body = Finding the right type of business and being successful as an entrepreneur can be a challenge for those who are trying to make the leap from the workplace to a home-based business. Samuel Awosolu, CEO of Yomi Travel, knows. He spent 12 years trying different types of businesses and failed at every one of them.
That's why he was skeptical when he first heard about Illinois-based YTB Travel And Cruises (stock symbol YTBL.PK). YTB is a provider of Internet-based traveling services for travel agencies and home-based representatives in the United States. YTB offered Awosolu the opportunity to tap into the company's infrastructure, computerized reservation system, and pre-negotiated partnerships to run his own home-based travel agency.
After investigating the company and its offerings, Awosolu took the plunge. Now he is successfully booking Travel & Cruises and earning up to 60% of the commissions paid to YTB who is responsible for the fulfillment and any travel documents required by the customers.
"It's the best of both worlds," Awosolu said. "I get to help customers book airfare, hotels, car rentals, cruises, last minute travel, honeymoons, spa vacations, and more, and I'm freed from having to handle all of the details that go along with fulfilling those bookings," he added.
As part of the 7 trillion dollar travel industry, home-based travel agents can work their own schedules and do not have to make a serious capital investment in buildings, equipment, advertising and payroll. YTB's support and benefits make it very attractive for entrepreneurs like Samuel to hit the ground running. "I get so much support from this company that sometimes it doesn't feel real. I get travel credentials to establish me as a bona fide travel agent and I'm eligible for travel perks when I travel," Awosolu said. He points out that the company's weekly training keeps him up-to-date on industry happenings and best practices, which enables him to consistently meet or exceed his customers' service expectations.
Samuel is so impressed with his own success that he wants to help other struggling would-be entrepreneurs get started in this lucrative home-based business opportunity. He invites interested people to contact him 877-572-7680 or his cell phone (678)656-6408.
