Designed to make your travel agency, and your life, SHINE.
Outlined below is part of the marketing curriculum, techie training, and support included in your Travel Expert Marketing Academy membership. There is SO much included that we couldn’t list it all, so here is some of what you’ll be getting.
The Marketing Training (Curriculum) Included
Discover Your Ideal Client
As the saying goes “if you try to market to everyone, you will appeal to no one”. A critical first step in an effective marketing plan is to identify the exact type of client you LOVE working with – the ones that make your heart sing. In this Module you’ll gain the clarity, insight and confidence you need to attract an abundance of DREAM clients.
Craft Your Messaging
Your marketing messaging needs to touch, move and inspire your ideal prospective clients to take action and schedule a free consultation with you. In this Module we will help you craft an Opening Mission Statement (OMS), which is similar to an “Elevator Pitch” (but much more effective!). Your new OMS will excite and intrigue your ideal prospective clients. We’ll also walk you through a very simple process for crafting strategic and creative copy for your website and all of your marketing pieces.
Give the Perfect Free Consultation
In this Module you’ll learn how to invite ideal prospective clients to a free consultation with you, and how to facilitate the consultation in a smart, effective and efficient manner. You will know within minutes if the prospect is a good fit for your services, and if they are, you will have the skills to convert them into a paying client using a fun feel-good method. Your new client will leave the free consultation call excited to work with you! And in many cases they will be thinking about who they can refer to you BEFORE you even start working for them.
Create Your Gorgeous New Brand
Branding is so much more than a logo! It’s the perception of who you are and can have a dramatic effect on the type of client you attract. If you want DREAM clients to come to you in droves, your brand needs to be compelling, cohesive, and an authentic representation of YOU. An effective brand will help attract clients to you like kittens to fresh milk.
Create Credibility Online
We’re not in Kansas anymore Toto! Having an effective and compelling online web presence is no longer optional – it’s a MUST. In this Module we make it very easy for you to establish your credibility online – even if you’re not-so-tech-savvy. We will walk you through step-by-step as you set up, configure, brand, and automate your online credibility. You may even be pleasantly surprised at how easy and fast the process is when you have the right instructions and a good coach!
Attract a Steady Flow of Ideal Clients
Right now it may seem to you that there is a finite number of dream clients out there for you – but I assure you, that is simply NOT the case. In this Module you’re going to discover exactly where your ideal clients are both online and offline, and we are going to help you get your new gorgeous brand, messaging, and call-to-actions in front of them. Attracting DREAM clients is going to become so effortless that you’re going to wonder why you spent so long struggling and scraping by.
Get the Bookings!
We’re going to teach you the secret strategies to getting your clients to take action by responding back to your itinerary quickly. And we’ll show you a fun easy method of securing the booking! Once you learn these strategies, online travel will no longer feel like your competitor. People will be jumping at the chance to book with you! You’ll feel valued, appreciated, and most importantly, you’ll make more money and waste less time.
Set Up Efficient Automated Systems for Running Your Business
One big advantage to technology is that you can now automate much of your business and create a better experience for your clients. The caveat is you need to know exactly how to leverage technology and which systems to use. In this Module, we make it really easy for you to choose your technology and then set it up and automate it. Even if you’re not-so-tech-savvy, you can leverage the power of technology to save yourself hundreds of hours a year, and we’ll show you how.
Grow Your e-Newsletter List
It’s been said that “the money is in the list”, meaning, the more people who are on your e-Newsletter List the more clients you have and the more money you make. In this Module you’ll learn how to grow a large and responsive community of DREAM clients! Imagine how great you will feel as your following grows, and you know that every new name of your list is a seed planted for DREAM clients to hire you over and over again.
Leverage Social Media
Social media can be a time-suck! But it doesn’t have to be. We’re going to show you how to turn your social media networks into client-attracting, profit-generating, money-magnets that only take a little bit of time to manage! Instead of social media being “one more thing you have to do”, you’ll start to actually enjoy it. And you’ll REALLY love the commission checks you’ll get as a result of you learning to properly leverage it.
Website
Your website is the “home base” of your business. It showcases you, your service(s), your brand, and should be designed to entice prospective dream clients to take the next step in working with you. We will show you how to structure your website so that it attracts prospective DREAM clients and helps turn them into PAYING dream clients. You can tweak your existing website to make it much more effective, or, if you don’t yet have your own website or you need a new website, we’ll show you a few of different affordable ways to get a new website.
Landing Pages
We’ll show you how to use landing pages (aka squeeze pages) to capture leads online, and how to set up an automated follow-up email campaign that is designed to entice your new leads to schedule a free consultation with you. You’ll discover copy secrets to make your offers irresistible and clearly showcase the value of your services.
Automated Marketing System
We’re going to walk you through the process of setting up a marketing system that consistently gets you new DREAM clients, and we’ll help you automate it as much as possible (don’t you love things that are automated?!). The secret to your success is to stop getting distracted by shiny new objects and instead implement an effective systematized marketing plan that gets you new dream clients on a regular basis — and we’re going to show you how, step-by-step! This is going to completely transform your business.
Create & Achieve Goals With Soul
This is your time to connect with what you truly desire and yearn for in your business and life. In this Module you’re going to access your TRUE desires, and then activate powerful energy within yourself for achieving those goals – and doing so with grace and ease. You’re going to naturally start prioritizing and finding efficient ways to spend your time and energy. What you’re going to learn to do is is nothing like traditional goal setting!
Clear Your Money Blocks
A healthy relationship with money is an absolute MUST for your success. In this Module we will uncover your current money beliefs and how they may be holding you back from receiving the income and lifestyle you truly desire. Once this is healed, and your vibration around money is raised, you’ll be amazed at how quickly your financial situation can change!
Time Mastery
You’re going to discover the secret to productivity, delegation, getting and staying organized, and how to determine ‘who else can do this’ – all of which will put you in the driver’s seat of your business and life!
Advanced Marketing Modules
In addition to your Core Curriculum, each month we release a new advanced module on a business, marketing or personal development topic. For as long as you’re an Academy Member (part of the A-Team!) you get access to all past and future advanced modules. Most of the advanced modules are designed for you to enjoy after you’ve completed the Core Curriculum (which you get complete access to as soon as you join). However, some of the advanced modules may be beneficial to you as you go through your Core Curriculum – so we give you immediate access to them as well.
Updates on Current Marketing Best Practices
As you know, marketing is not a one-and-done type of thing. It’s something that you need to continually do and up-level in your business. This is why we made the Academy a month-to-month membership instead of a one-time program. We will continue to keep up with the latest changes on Facebook, Google, Social Media and so on, so that you don’t have to. Then, each time there is a change that you need to be aware of and react to, we’ll let you know what the change is and how to react to it (give you easy-to-follow steps). Your Academy Membership will be the most valuable tool in your business.
The Technical Tutorials Included
Tech Tips & Tutorials
You don’t have to become a highly tech-savvy person to be successful, however, in the academy we have an entire section dedicated to tech tips and tutorials that will make your life in this new digital world much easier and more efficient.
Stock Images

The world’s best business and marketing plan is useless if you don’t implement it – so to help ensure your success, we’ll show you how to find an accountability partner. You can select one within the group or outside the group, and we’ll give you a proven formula for having quick, fun and effective weekly checkin meetings with your partner.
We know you’re busy so our goal is to save you as much time and energy as humanly possible. We’ve designed the Academy to be efficient and FUN! Transforming your business should not be a burden. In fact, the most efficient way TO transform your business is to experience fun and joy in the process.

We walk you through step-by-step, but you have to do the work. If you’re looking for a magic pill, this isn’t for you.

As Oprah says, “when you know better you do better”. We’re going to show you a better way. There is no reason that you need to work tons of hours and/or have inconsistent income.

This Program is For You If…
- You work with either a host agency, a consortia, a franchise, or on your own. The academy is not designed for MLM’s (multi-level marketers). If you are an MLM and are looking to transition out of MLM and into being a regular travel agent, then the academy can work for you.

- You are tired of working long hours and you can’t figure out why you’re not making great money.
- You are tired of your friends and family asking you for travel advice, not hiring you, and then you see pictures on Facebook of them visiting the places you recommended.
- You want to put an effective marketing system in place that consistently brings in DREAM clients and is as automated as possible.
- This is for you if you are ready to have a business that makes great money — not a hobby or charity.

If you’re booking six figures in travel a year and want to be booking seven figures – this program is the fastest and most streamlined way to reach your goal.

It’s completely up to you! The Marketing Academy is a work at your own pace program. You could spend 1 hour a week or 10 hours a week – it’s completely up to you. The curriculum is designed to support travel agents at any stage of their business so it is best to implement and apply the content you learn into your business rather than looking at your modules as if they are a separate entity from your business.
Remember, there are no magic formulas or special potions that are going to create your business breakthrough for you. However, if you fully implement all of the training modules you’re new reality will be working with DREAM clients and having a balanced schedule of work and play.
How long does it typically take to start seeing results?
Early on in your academy Core Curriculum we show you three strategies for getting new ideal clients FAST. We call these strategies “Cash Injection Strategies” because they are designed to help you get some new good bookings FAST. These strategies aren’t part of the long-term marketing system that we show you how to set up. These strategies are simply “get-some-good-bookings-now” strategies for when you need some quick cash in your business.
We show you these strategies early on in your Core Curriculum because laying the necessary business and marketing foundation (or refining your existing foundation) AND setting up an effective marketing system with reliable lead sources, takes time. We want you to get some new cash in your business WHILE you work through your Core Curriculum.
The tough part of travel is that generally you don’t get paid on your bookings until your client takes their trip, except for your planning fees. In the academy we encourage you to collect planning fees from your clients and we show you how to do it gracefully and with ease (you of course don’t have to, but it’s highly encouraged).
We regularly survey our members so that we know what results they are getting, where they are having the most success, and where they are getting stuck so that we can provide the best support possible, and help our Academy Members get results as quickly as possible. Based on our member survey responses, currently, our members are getting three new ideal (or close to ideal) bookings just from the Cash Injection Strategies (with an average planning fee of $200 per client).
Of course, once you complete the Core Curriculum and move on to your Advanced Marketing Modules, you will have a highly effective marketing system in place that brings in a steady flow of new IDEAL clients. The Cash Injection Strategies are designed to help you get some cash in the door right away WHILE you lay your business & marketing foundation which includes, setting up an effective marketing system, and automating and systematize it as much as possible.
PLEASE NOTE: Results vary between members. We don’t know your current level of skill set, your work ethic, your mindset, and how much time you have to implement your Core Curriculum each month, therefore we can’t tell you exactly what results you will produce and when. What we can say is that the academy works REALLY well, our members are happy, and if you join and you implement, you’ll have success.
What is the “Marketing System” you’re helping me create?
When we use the term “Marketing System”, we are referring to your system for attracting in ideal clients (your lead sources) and then converting those leads into paying clients. In the academy we give you an overview of the marketing plan you need in order for your travel business to THRIVE without overworking yourself, and then we walk you through the process of setting up your marketing system, and automating it as much as possible.
If you are wondering what your lead sources are going to be, here’s the short answer… There are 14 different IDEAL lead sources for travel agents, however, you only need to have 3-5 of them in place to have a highly successful travel business. In the academy we will help you select the 3-5 lead sources that are BEST suited for YOU based on your niche, ideal client avatar, skill set, and personality. Then, you’ll get step-by-step instructions on setting them up and tracking the results. Some lead sources are free, others cost money. If you don’t have any additional money to invest in your business, then we’ll recommend that you start with only free lead sources (fortunately most of them are free or very low cost).
When do I get access to the Advanced Marketing Modules?
Upon joining you get immediate access to all of the Advanced Modules that have been released. Each month we release a new Advanced Module on a marketing, business and/or personal development topic. Some of these Advanced Modules are taught by guest experts who are the best of the best in their field.
Will I get 1-on-1 feedback and coaching from Galen during the Travel Expert Marketing Academy?
The Academy is a group program. Galen hosts monthly Live Roundtable Coaching Calls. Your opportunity to receive guidance and training live, is by attending the monthly Live Roundtable Coaching Calls. We intentionally keep these calls small so that you get the support you need. If you would like one-on-one private sessions with Galen, they are available for purchase.
What if I don’t like the Academy, can I cancel my membership?
Yes. Your membership is month-to-month and can be cancelled anytime with a 15-day notice. Simply email [email protected] your cancellation request. (Enrollment fee and past dues are non-refundable). We will email you back to confirm we received your request and let you know what day your membership access will be stopped. With all of that said – we KNOW you’re going to find the Marketing Academy so valuable that you will be a member for as long as you are a Travel Agent!
I have a multi-agent agency, can we get a group discount?
Yes, we have a group discount available for agencies with more than one agent. For details schedule a one-on-one phone chat with Marketing Maven, Heidi. Use this scheduling link to find a time that is convenient for you ==> https://www.timetrade.com/book/V3NDJ
Is there an option to purchase a lifetime membership at a discount?
Yes. The Academy has been designed for you to be a member for as long as you are a Travel Agent – it will be one of most valuable tools in your business! If you are looking to get away from monthly payments but still want to be a member of the Academy, you can upgrade your account to lifetime membership.
