Eunice Quigley completed her five-day virtual training with Not Just Travel at the end of June and then proceeded to take her first-ever booking, a £6,000, 11-day holiday for a family to Turkey on the same day. 
 
"I just started chatting to people and I encouraged them to send me an email or WhatsApp if they had any upcoming holidays they were looking to book," she explained.

"Towards the end of my training, I reached out and scheduled a call for the following day, resulting in my first booking. I’ve since had three other inquiries from the same person referring me to others."
 
Elsewhere, new agent Mohsin Salejee has made four bookings worth nearly £11,000 since he finished training last week. Another two consultants from the latest set of training have made bookings within hours of finishing.

Alison Hunter-Gray, a mum of three from the Shetland Isles, completed training at the end of last month and has subsequently made five bookings worth £26,000.

Steve Witt, co-founder of Not Just Travel and its recruitment arm, The Travel Franchise, said: "The speed at which new agents are making sales shows that the training we deliver is optimised to create confident, expert travel business owners who know how to find customers and provide them with high-value customer service."
