For independent travel agency owners

You know what you earned last month.
Do you know what it cost you in hours?

Most agency owners can name their revenue to the dollar and can't say where a single working week went. This diagnostic shows you both — which functions eat your week, what those hours are worth in commission, and which ones you can stop spending.

The problem

The work that pays isn't the work that fills the week

Nobody bills for filing. Nobody bills for refreshing an inbox. But those hours grow first and get measured last.

01

Time follows volume, not revenue

You handle every inquiry the same way and don't know which source actually converts.

02

Checking instead of doing

A large share of your week goes to status, confirmations, whether anything broke. It never appears on any task list.

03

The function with no deadline

Finding the next client is the only work nothing forces you to do — so it loses to whatever is urgent.

04

Rules nothing measures

Response time, follow-up, repeat rate. A rule with no metric behind it isn't a rule.

05

It stops when you do

Not because you're disorganised — because nothing was built to run without you.

What you get

Three numbers you don't currently have

Finding 01

What your non-revenue hours cost

Admin and monitoring, converted into dollars at your own hourly value — per month and per year.

Finding 02

What inquiries really take

How many you work to close one booking, and what the ones that don't convert quietly cost.

Finding 03

Your monitoring share

The percentage of your week spent checking state rather than changing it.

The programme

Six areas, one starting point

The audit is where it begins, not where it ends. What the diagnostic measures, the programme develops — built on twenty years of running an agency and training the people inside it.

01

Operational diagnostics

Where the working week goes, what those hours cost, which functions can be removed, delegated or automated. The entry point for everything else.

02

Product selection

Building proposals faster and better: source discipline, comparison structure, and the tools that cut a two-hour itinerary to fifteen minutes.

03

Sales practice

Inquiry qualification, contact cadence, objection handling, and working the existing client base — the highest-converting source there is.

04

Process and coordination

Standards, timings and written procedure — so the work survives volume, and so it can be handed to someone else without being explained from scratch.

05

Client consultation

How the conversation is structured from first message to post-trip follow-up, and how that follow-up turns into the reviews that bring the next client.

06

Hiring and onboarding

The point most solo practices break: you hire, it costs more time than it saves, and you conclude it was a mistake. It wasn't the person — there was nothing written down to hand over. A 14-day onboarding structure, built and used in a working agency.

The method

How the diagnostic works

Eight functions exist in every agency. In a team they're split; in a solo practice they sit on one person. The method is identical — only the distribution changes.

Measure

Every function, including the ones that look obligatory.

Separate

Doing from checking. Monitoring is its own category — and the largest hidden cost.

Price

Hours into dollars at your own rate, on actual time rather than a nominal week.

Trace

Expected conversion against actual, to see whether the problem is the flow or the process.

Intervene

Remove, delegate, automate — then decide where the freed hours go.

Cutting hours isn't the point. Knowing what they were worth is.

For host agencies, consortia and networks

Training a whole agent base?

The same diagnostic runs as a programme for 25–40 advisors: two live sessions, a two-week measurement period between them, and every participant leaving with their own numbers rather than notes. Six areas, delivered over four to six weeks, adapted to how your network actually works.

A short outline and two sample sessions — no call required.
