"You should be a Disney travel agent!"
you've heard it a million times. Now it's time to do something about it.
You're the go-to person for everyone planning a Disney trip. You're a firm believer in being front and center for rope drop. You bear your "Park Commando" nickname proudly.
For Disney World, you can list the characters at Chef Mickey's and Tusker House in your sleep. You always make your dining reservations at 6am ET.
With Disneyland, you're ready to share your opinion about Grand Californian vs Disneyland Hotel and bemoan the lack of a good princess meal now that Ariel's Grotto is closed.
You love Disney Cruise Line and roll your eyes when someone says it's "only for kids". You have aspirations to earn that coveted Castaway Club white lanyard... or maybe you already have. ::fist bump::
And at Universal Orlando, you’re either a fan of Halloween Horror Nights… or not. (I’m a big chicken, myself) You love Harry Potter, or Velociraptors, or the Simpsons, or Minions, or E.T., or maybe all of it. You know where to find the Hulk coaster and you’ve “encountered” Blue too.
Are you the perfect fit for our glass slipper?
Have you been to a Disney park or cruise at least 3x in the last 5 years?
Have you been to Universal Orlando or Hollywood in the last 5 years?
Do you enjoy a team environment?
Do you feel at home with social media?
Are you a self-starter?
Do you have excellent verbal and written communication skills?
Are you involved in communities, both online and in your local area?
Are you willing to vacation at Disney and/or Universal destinations (and with other MTT travel partners) at least once a year?
As an independent contractor with Mouse Tales Travel, you'll work on your own schedule while booking travel for clients and you'll be running your own home business via Internet, phone, and in-person. Please speak with your accountant about potential tax benefits.
Who we are & What we do
Mouse Tales Travel is a U-Preferred Agency with Universal Orlando and a Silver EarMarked agency and recognized as an Authorized Disney Vacation Planner. What does that mean? Universal and Disney recognize us as one of the best of the best. Which is all well and good, but who are we REALLY?
Well, I'm Kimberly and I manage the agency full-time which means I'm not competing with you for clients and my full focus is on growing your sales through ongoing training and coaching. I've walked the walk too - as a $1 MILLION seller before I stopped to manage the agency full-time. MTT is a family-owned and operated business with Bob, The Chief Mouse and founder of MTT.
MTT offers a complete online training program which includes Disney's College of Disney Knowledge, as well as introductions to Universal Orlando and our other travel partners, then wraps up with marketing and sales training. The learning doesn't stop there though... you can also complete exclusive courses, challenges, and contests just for MTT. We make learning fun - and profitable ;) We also host private supplier webinars so you can get to know our travel partners and boost your sales. The more you know, the more you grow! $$$
You'll also be added to our virtual office where you can interact with your fellow MTT agents getting questions answered in real-time, sharing ideas, and just hanging out around our virtual water cooler.
We pay commission twice a month via free-to-you direct deposit. YAY!
We also have a system in place for you to charge planning fees (no matter what you call them) at 90%.
This sounds like fun!
Now, being a travel agent isn't all pixie dust, rainbows, and unicorns and it's certainly not easy money. This is a commission-based business which means it's a lot of hours up-front with the pay-off after the client travels AND after the supplier pays MTT. It also means that you could spend hours working with a client and then they choose to book directly with the supplier or another travel agent, or not to go at all. Even if you're the go-to person for Disney/cruises/whatever in your social circle, getting your first clients can be a daunting task. And you're never really off-duty because when a client is traveling, they need to be able to get ahold of you 24/7... even when you're vacationing yourself.
We play hard, but we work hard first. We're looking for not just a theme park or beach or cruise fan, but a person who utilizes their love to sell travel. My goal is to double our commission payments in 2022 - will you be part of it?
