Celebrating 5 Years of Adventure: My Travel Business Journey

Natalie Warren on 04 November 2024
Wow, it’s hard to believe that five years have flown by since I embarked on this incredible journey of running my own travel business! Time has truly flown, and as I reflect on these past years, I’m filled with gratitude and pride.

A New Beginning:

My journey began after I was made redundant from my high street travel agent job of 20 years. It was a challenging transition, but it also opened the door to a world of possibilities. With a passion for travel and a desire to create meaningful experiences for others, I took the leap into entrepreneurship.

The Journey of Ups and Downs.

Has it been easy? The answer is a resounding yes and no! I’ve navigated through a myriad of challenges: pandemics, natural disasters, flight cancellations, and fluctuations in enquiries and sales. There have been moments when I’ve questioned, “Can I really keep doing this?” But when I look back at what I’ve accomplished, it all feels worth it.

Milestones Achieved, in these five years, I’ve hit some significant milestones:

£950K in sales: Just £50K away from the monumental £1 million mark!

600 unforgettable journeys: I’ve had the privilege of helping 600 amazing people explore the world.

Incredible connections: I’ve met extraordinary individuals who inspire me every day.

Work-related adventures: I get to travel to stunning destinations as part of my work, which is a dream come true.

The Big Question: Why Book With Me?

Despite all these accomplishments, I often get asked, “Why should we book with you instead of going to the high street or booking online?” Here’s what sets my service apart:

Your Personal Concierge: I offer an expert concierge-like service that is always available and tailored specifically to you. I take the time to understand your preferences and ensure every detail of your trip is perfect.

Global Expertise for Extraordinary Experiences: Being part of a vast community of travel experts, I craft meticulously planned holidays that are unique to you. My global network allows me to offer insights and experiences that you won’t find just anywhere.

Support Whenever You Need It: From our first meeting, until you return from your trip, I am your unwavering point of contact. If I’m not available, my dedicated office support team is here for you 24/7.

Your Satisfaction is My Priority: As an independent Travel Counsellor, my loyalty lies with you. I partner with reputable suppliers, but my main goal is to ensure you have the best experience throughout your entire journey.

Peace of Mind is My Mission: I believe that flawless trips start with peace of mind. I’m here to handle any changes or unexpected situations, so you can relax and enjoy your travels.

A Heartfelt Thank You, Thank you for being part of this journey and supporting my small business. Your trust means everything to me, and I truly appreciate every referral you send my way. Here’s to many more years of adventures together!

With love and gratitude,

Natalie
