🚀 The Home Based Travel Agent Hustle Chronicles: How I Sell Travel While Crushing It in Corporate America✈️🏖️ 💻✈️
Posted by Sanderia Gray on
Ever wonder what it’s like to juggle two jobs while still having time to sip coffee ☕, binge-watch Netflix 📺, and take spontaneous trips just because? Welcome to my life as a home-based travel agent 🌍 while working full time as a Business Development Representative in Digital Marketing—where every day is a mix of Zoom calls, CRM multitasking, dream vacations, and the occasional wild haired pajama sales pitch.
⏰ 6:30 AM – The Early Bird Catches the… Booking?
Ideally...the alarm goes off. I tell myself I’m getting up immediately (I don’t🤣😂). After a motivational five-minute stare at the ceiling, I thank God for another day, read my bible verses and I finally roll out of bed, dring my vinegar water, coffee in one hand ☕ and my phone in the other 📱. Before I even brush my teeth, I check my travel agent emails and dashboards —BOOM! 💰 A commission notification. Someone just booked a vacation while I was dreaming of retiring early. 😆
💻 08:30 AM – Marketing Mode ON
Time to switch gears and log in to my full-time digital marketing job 🖥️. While analyzing Ads campaigns, website SEO and PPC reports 📊, I get a text:
✈️ "Hey, I saw your post about the Adults only cruise line - Voyages. Is it really adults-only?"
💡 My travel agent brain instantly activates:
"Yes! It’s an all-adults experience—no kids, just luxury, fun, and amazing food 🍽️. Want me to send over a quote?"
BOOM. Another happy client in the bag—back to my digital marketing tasks. ✅
🥪 12:30 PM – Lunch & Travel Side Hustle Wins
While others scroll social media to get away from work during lunch, I’m sending out a quick follow-up email 📩 to a client interested in a Luxury Island Honeymoon package with Butler Suite 💍or posting about my latest Exhuberant Mountain Getaway. A five-minute conversation later, they’re ready to book, and I’m planning what to do with my sweet commission 💵 before my sandwich is even gone.
🎧 3:00 PM – Zoom Calls & Secretly Planning My Next Trip
Back-to-back Zoom meetings, SEO trainings and continuous learning can be draining, but guess what keeps me going? Knowing that when I log off, I have a flexible business that lets me work from anywhere 🌎. I might as well be answering emails from a beach in Jamaica next week. (Spoiler: I will might be.💖🤣 🏖️)
🌙 6:00 PM – The 9-to-5 is Done, Now Let’s Sell Some Vacations!
After making nearly 60 calls and scheduling a couple of digital marketing appointments. I shut my work laptop and dive into my dream world — travel! Since most my clients are busy professionals too, evenings are prime time for them to ask about vacations. I post some eye-catching vacations on Instagram and Facebook 📢, reply to emails, chat with leads 💬, and answer DMs 📩.
💰 8:00 PM – Booking Dreams & Counting Commissions
By now, I’ve receive another inquiry (or two) 🎟️, and my side hustle doesn't even feel like work 💸. The best part? No begging for sales—just helping people plan dream vacations while getting paid.
