Agents reveal top tips to work successfully at home

Gillian Polyhos - Olive Lounge Travel

“Remember, you’re not alone! Create a WhatsApp group with other agency friends to share relevant advice, news, updates and maybe some much-needed encouragement.

"We also have a display in our shop window that we can update remotely from home with advice for customers and general travel information. We will get through this together.”

Amanda Matthews - Designer Travel

“Most travel professionals are used to being in control of everything they do, so it’s hard to accept we have little control of the current situation – but you need to accept this for your own sanity.

"Take yourself away from your desk for a ‘sanity hour’, stay strong and don’t take anything personally. I’d also recommend doing something positive each day, such as tracking your rebooks or promoting lovely messages you’ve had from clients.”
