Three reasons why becoming a Travel Counsellor could help beat the January blues

Many of us see the New Year as a chance for a fresh start. We reflect on the highs and lows of the previous year and vow to refocus our energy.

This may explain why January is the most popular month to take your career in a new direction. In fact, we’re delighted to announce that we have 23 new Travel Counsellors joining our community of over 2,000 travel experts this month.

The most common motivations for a career change in the new year are finding your job boring, feeling that you need a new challenge, or wanting to earn more.

However, as we head back to business it’s easy to slip into old habits, and it’s no surprise that many of us start to feel the January blues.

If this sounds familiar, let us give you three reasons why becoming a Travel Counsellor could be the career change you need in 2024.

Follow your passions

A day at work will never be boring once you have the freedom to follow your passion and make it your full-time focus. Do you have expert knowledge on a favourite destination? Love the thrill of winning new business? Or are you a social media whizz? With the flexibility to work together with other Travel Counsellors in the community, you can run your business in a way that works for you and your clients, allowing you to play to your strengths and do what you enjoy.

“The best thing about owning my business is being in control. I love what I do, I sell what I want to sell and I market to the customers I want to have.” - Alex Buckle, Gold Travel Counsellor

Find a new challenge

Taking on a new challenge can be daunting, but with Travel Counsellors you’ll never be on your own. Whatever your background, our bespoke, industry-leading training will equip you with all the tools you need to make your business a success. You’ll then have the support of our accredited business coaches, as well as a whole community of experienced Travel Counsellors.

“The Travel Academy training team were so supportive - there is a lot to learn but they were there every step of the way. Travel Counsellors is a great community and I am looking forward to my new business thriving.” – Jane Bloomfield, Travel Counsellor

Unlock your earning potential

With uncapped earning potential and control over your own margins, you get out what you put in. Grow your business with the support of our team and reap the rewards of your hard work.

“There is no way I could have achieved this level of sales at my previous company, the restrictions were holding me back without a doubt. Travel Counsellors has released the shackles and given me the freedom to book what’s needed for the client." - Chris D’Arcy, Travel Counsellor
