Brownell Hosting

The Leading Host for Successful Travel Advisors

We Travel More: Educational Travel

How do you become a better travel advisor? Experience, training, and educational travel. While gaining experience takes time, you can take your travel education into your own hands and expand your knowledge base. One of the very best ways to truly educate yourself about a destination, hotel, cruise line, etc. is to experience it first hand.

And that’s where Brownell Travel Advisors have a true advantage. All advisors have countless educational travel opportunities. Our dedicated Educational Team works closely with our travel partners to create educational trips (or EDUs). Then the team shares them company-wide, and the Brownell Leadership Team selects advisors to attend each trip. Even better, Brownell has developed Brownell Exclusive EDUs where a group of Brownell team members travel together to some of the most exciting destinations, like Africa, India, the Caribbean, Italy, and so much more.

So whether you’re a new travel advisor or have been in the industry for years, one of the best tools in your selling toolbox is your first-hand experience. And when you are a part of the Brownell Hosting Program or the Brownell Mentoring Program, you will be fully equipped with countless opportunities to see the world and better educate yourself in travel.

Team Marketing is tops

“I love all of the creative marketing help. The very most helpful thing was when they prepped me for my interview with Travel Agent Central. Their guidance on that was so spectacular, and I genuinely feel as though I could not have handled that without them. Team Marketing is a very important part of my plans to grow my business, and I always feel very supported.”

I'm inspired to set new goals

“Brownell Academy is my chance to step away from the daily office routine and immerse myself in the world of travel. Having uninterrupted quality time with other advisors and vendors not only builds camaraderie, but inspires me to set new goals. I come back to my office not only rejuvenated, but also with specific actions I can immediately implement to improve my business & provide better service to my clients.”

My clients are spoiled because I am part of Brownell

“I found my family when I found Brownell. Just having their name behind me brings enthusiastic greetings (and sometimes hugs) from hoteliers, and suppliers when I first meet a new partner. The support and values are truly outstanding and I couldn’t imagine being with another host agency. My clients are spoiled because I am part of Brownell.”

Catherine Parkin, Denver, CO
