FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

 * Who can benefit from the TA Launchpad?
   
   The TA Launchpad was tailor-made for individuals looking to kickstart their
   travel career. While this program delves into many facets of owning a
   business, the information provided is beneficial to anyone looking to better
   understand and grow their travel business – from independently-accredited
   agency owners to hosted contractors, franchisees, and even employees. Whether
   you are new to the industry and ready for take off, or you are a seasoned
   professional looking for a refresh of your travel business, our program will
   provide tools and resources to help you succeed.
   
   The TA Launchpad will be your co-pilot as you navigate the complexities of
   designing a foolproof business plan, mastering your personal and professional
   budget, learning about your brand identity, and fine-tuning your client
   workflows – all crucial elements of building and running a successful travel
   business. So, fasten your seatbelt and prepare for takeoff, because the
   adventure of a lifetime is about to begin!

 * Is ALL of this information really provided for free?
   
   At TARC, we are committed to transparency and honesty in all aspects of our
   business. That being said, we want to inform each of you that we have
   partnered with several organizations, both in and out of the travel industry,
   to provide additional resources that you’ll find on our websites and
   throughout the TA Launchpad. Like this program, some of the resources will be
   provided on a complimentary basis, but others will come at a cost. Keep in
   mind that you do not have to purchase any additional resources to complete
   the TA Launchpad, but there are many resources provided that can help
   streamline and elevate your travel business. Please note that TARC may earn
   income from these products and services, including affiliate marketing,
   sponsored content, advertising, sale of our own products, and reader
   contributions.

 * Will I be able to launch my travel business in just 10 days?
   
   Our program was created to provide you with bite-sized information to
   jumpstart your travel business and get the juices flowing with actionable
   content, challenges, and exercises over the course of 10 days. While we
   provide quite a bit of information, achieving a fully operational travel
   business within this timeframe may not be realistic. The truth is, you may
   need several days to process some of the information, but you can always get
   started and revisit it later. Our experts anticipate that the process of
   setting up your travel business can generally take anywhere from 1-3 months,
   depending on how much time you dedicate to building it. During the setup
   process, you may be slowed down by decision fatigue, workflow implementation,
   contracts, licensure, and several other mitigating factors. Don't let that
   scare you though because once you complete the TA Launchpad, we anticipate
   that you'll be between 75-80% of the way there and you’ll have plenty of
   resources to reach the end!

 * What is a Travel Advisor?
   
   A Travel Advisor, previously referred to as a Travel Agent, is a person who
   simplifies the time-consuming and complicated process of planning travel for
   their customers, in addition to providing consultation services and travel
   packages.

 * Is becoming a Travel Advisor a smart career move?
   
   Tourism accounts for 1 in 10 jobs worldwide and is part of almost every
   industry. Becoming a Travel Advisor is a lot of work, but it is also an
   extremely rewarding career. Sending clients on bucket list trips, organizing
   events, and even planning weddings are just a few great ways that Travel
   Advisors can work with clients. The fact is, people like to travel for
   personal reasons and many also travel for professional reasons – whatever the
   reason, they do it best with a trusted Travel Advisor.

 * Will I be navigating this journey alone?
   
   NO WAY!! One of the best things about the travel industry is the amazing
   communities that have developed over the years. While the TA Launchpad is a
   self-paced program, we have personally created a dedicated Facebook Group
   tailored to the TA Launchpad and individuals looking to join the travel
   industry. As you progress in your career, you’ll discover a wealth of diverse
   resources at your disposal for asking questions and seeking guidance. That
   being said, if you ever find yourself in a situation where you're seeking
   answers and feel a bit lost, we strongly recommend exploring additional
   resources available on our website at www.TravelAdvisorResourceCenter.com or
   reaching out to a seasoned industry mentor for valuable assistance and
   insights.

 * How do I know this will work?
   
   While we can't "guarantee" success, we can assure you that all of the content
   throughout the TA Launchpad has been carefully sourced by owners of
   multi-million dollar travel agencies and experts throughout the industry.

 * What’s next after completing the TA Launchpad?
   
   That’s for you to find out! As you'll soon discover through the TA Launchpad,
   the travel industry offers boundless opportunities. With the knowledge you'll
   gain, you'll be ready to embark on the journey of growing and developing your
   brand-new travel business. *Please note that this program does not come with
   a certificate of completion. If you are searching for our industry-recognized
   certification program, please visit the Recognized Travel Advisor (RTA)
   program on our website at: www.recognizedtraveladvisor.com.

*Please note that TARC does not endorse or recommend any specific travel-related
resources. Each agency, advisor, supplier, and/or user must do their own
research and make a decision to access/purchase resources based on their own
findings. All sales are final. TARC does not own or manage many of the resources
