Roy then sought a manager to run his business in the Jedburgh branch of his post office and head hunted Kath Lightbody, who had worked in the industry for 22 years in ABTA based agencies. “I was delighted that Roy approached me, especially as it meant managing an agency my home town.” explains Kath. Border Global Travel sell a variety of holidays from flight only to tailor-made and already benefit from 90% of repeat business, so Kath is thrilled “I was definitely wary at first, but the footfall has been amazing, considering the town has a population of 4500 I have already surpassed my quarter million target!”
With a fantastic first year to show for her efforts we asked Kath what advice she would give to new members.“First of all, people have to work their business and offer a true service. Keep up to date with the industry, offers and what’s next. But ultimately it is crucial to have realistic expectations, so you can reach and even surpass set goals.” | ||||
