1. Choose your niche
The first thing you need to do is select which sector of the travel market you're going to make your own. The chances are that you've already done this. This one idea might even be the reason that you want to build a travel agency.
2. Build your Marketplace
Put it all together and build a kick-ass platform that looks professional while offering ease of use and scalability. Don't have the time or inclination to handle all of the technical wizardry required?
3. Add a touch of personality
At every stage of the travel agency build, you need to think about what is making you different. Sure, you've got a niche and there might not be many other competitors vying for the same space but how are you going to communicate that originality?
4. Adapt to your target market
At first, things might not go your way. Sales might be slow. Business might be non-existent. This is where you need to adapt. While a lack of sales could be for a number of reasons, one thing you can do to turn things in your favour is adapt to your target market.
5. Shout louder than the competition
There's a reason that a minority of major players dominate the travel industry. Search engines tend to throw up a select few names when potential customers are hunting online for trips. It can be difficult to get around this
6. Harness your customers' positivity shift
When things are going well there are things you can do to perpetuate that success. Had some great reviews? Fantastic! You're doing something right. But what can you do to encourage more people to buy what you're selling?
