A new rewards and recognition programme for franchisees has been outlined by GoCruise & Travel.
A tiered process has been detailed by the Fred Olsen Travel brand.
As part of the scheme, franchisees achieving more than £100,000 turnover in their first year of joining the business will be reimbursed the cost of the joining fee.
A long service reward has been created to encourage and thank franchisees for keeping their business with GoCruise & Travel.
Franchisees achieving more than £750,000 turnover in the year will receive a “generous” bonus.
Those achieving more than £1 million in holiday and cruise sales within a year will join GoCruise & Travel’s ‘Millionaire Club’ and receive exclusive benefits including no monthly subscription charges for the year and an additional percentage pay out on top of commission.
GoCruise & Travel has already seen two new members exceed £100,000 in holiday and cruise sales within just six months of completing a travel training academy.
Both franchisees, Amanda and Peter Duggan, joined the business with no travel experience.
They say the level of support that they received from the GoCruise & Travel team and their mentor Christina Astill was instrumental to their success.
New franchisee, Zoltan Bisco, has already achieved more than £70,000 in holiday and cruise sales in the first week of peaks.
He most recently worked at Ponders Travel, a licensee member of the Fred Olsen Travel Group that GoCruise & Travel is also part of, but was keen to set up his own business.
Bisco said: “After 10 remarkable years with Ponders Travel, a time that shaped my life and career in providing wonderful holiday experiences, I am so excited to have started a new chapter with my own business backed by GoCruise & Travel.”
Head of franchise Colin Martin-Weekes said: “I’m so proud to have such wonderful people as part of our franchise model and am confident that they will build successful businesses for their customers.
“It’s great to be able to reward franchisees for all their hard work and to encourage and incentivise them to grow their businesses. GoCruise & Travel is all about partnerships and we pride ourselves on looking after what we have built together.”
