When deciding what business to do, two considerations should be: 1. the support system and 2. the marketing tools provided by the company. The Your Travel Biz is strong in both arenas. The company offers unlimited support via its multifaceted and supportive infrastructure, and the marketing tools are, without controversy, outstanding.
YTB’s Support System
One of the first things that I noticed after joining YTB in 2006 was the support system that the company has in place. First, the company has a dynamic team of over 300 people working in the corporate offices in Wood River, IL who provide support via phone for about 14 hours a day, 5 or 6 days a week for both the travel and the marketing sides of the business. In addition, there are teams of accountants and legal staff available by phone and support ticket (found in the back office) who readily respond to suggestions, questions and concerns.
But that’s only part of the equation. YTB, as a network marketing company, is structured in TEAMS. Why? Because TEAMWORK makes the DREAM WORK! As someone is sponsored into a TEAM, they are supported by they’re new Power Team leader or by their sponsor or both. In many cases, it’s both.
What does this support look like? Well, in our TEAM, support is provided through our weekly “Keepin’ It Real” conference calls. On these calls we talk about issues that concern team-members, we brainstorm and share strategies, we role play scenarios and we discuss marketing tools, tips and ideas. We also work as a team to ensure that whether we are the sponsor, sponsor’s sponsor or the PowerTeam leader if someone in our TEAM calls, we’re available for advice, three-ways, travel parties or suggestions.
YTB’s Marketing Tools
There is no question that marketing is very critical in any business building enterprise. In the Your Travel Biz, we take business building and marketing very seriously. Immediately after you purchase your YTB online travel store, you receive the first marketing tool needed to promote, market and begin advertising your business, the Your Travel Biz marketing website. This site, one of more than seven that you automatically receive with your business, has a lot of information on it including a YTB company video, information about the YTB Comp Plan and Disclosure Statement, information about the Company Founders, J. Lloyd Tomer, Scott Tomer and J.Kim Sorensen, YTB Events, YTB Conference Calls and YTB International Investor information. On your marketing website you also have the link to book travel and the Deals and Steals form that allows your customers to sign up to receive travel specials in their Email inboxes weekly.
This is only the beginning of the list of information and marketing tools and resources available to you in YTB. In your back office, you will also find a host of tools including the YTB Success From Home magazine program that offers a $6000 guarantee, the Circle of Champions videos that tell the stories of 12 YTB Directors who all earned upwards of $1 million dollars in a 12-month period, Leaders Bulletins, The Coach’s Playbook and many other outstanding marketing tools that can be used to successfully build your YTB Travel business. Finally, visit www.princelydesigns.com if you want to get fliers, postcards, car magnets, business cards for your business. You can order from one of the templates there or you can customize your own unique design.
The Your Travel Biz clearly does not take shortcuts when it comes to the serious business of “business building.” The support system and marketing tools that YTB provides to new business owners are second to none. If you are considering a home-based business, look for one that provides the infrastructure, system and tools you need to build your business at the level you desire.

Regina---doesn't this all apply to Your Travel Biz and not YTB Travel Network?
