Spurred by the pandemic, TLN’s lead generation program offers advisors new tools

ALEXANDRIA, VA (October 19, 2021) – Travel Leaders Network’s lead generation program Agent Profiler now has additional enhancements to help TLN members.

“Throughout the pandemic, we saw that travel advisors are more needed than ever,” said Roger Block, President of Travel Leaders Network. “Travel is incredibly complex now, and consumers are actively seeking a travel professional who can make sure their trips go off without a hitch. While travel advisors sell travel, Agent Profiler promotes travel advisors to consumers seeking the expertise of a professional travel advisor, bringing both needs together—and now we’ve made it even better.”

Because of the move to a remote work, and the rise of the digital nomad, many travel advisors are finding themselves running their business from a variety of locations. Agent Profiler now offers a remote agent locator, allowing a travel advisor to update their location from wherever they are currently working. This is especially valuable for brick-and-mortar agencies, who might have employees currently working outside of the office’s geographic area.

Agent Profiler also offers an easy video appointment booker, requested by both travelers and travel advisors to accommodate social distancing measures and busy schedules. With one click of a button, a user can set up their consultation with the travel advisor of their choice. Agent Profiler will also host the video visit, adding an extra level of convenience for travel advisors.

People searching for a travel advisor on Agent Profiler have two new pieces of information available to them: years of experience and a Book with Confidence badge. Advisors now has the option to list the number of years they have been a travel advisor. And if an advisor has completed Travel Leaders Network’s award-winning Book With Confidence program, a badge is added to their profile to let users know they are experts in traveling safely in this Covid era.

For independent advisors, Agent Profiler will display the agency name on search results, along with their host agency. This allows that agent to continue to build their own brand.

Lastly, for the first time ever, Travel Leaders Network is allowing Agent Profiler advisors to turn off leads temporarily. This allows the advisor to take time off without having to worry about a backlog of leads. The advisor’s profile will remain up, although they will not be able to be called, and users will see a customizable note that they are not open to new leads at the moment.

“Agent Profiler is one of the flagship tools we offer our members,” said Block. “It is a powerful way of generating leads, and we are thrilled to offer these enhancements to our advisors. Whether they use one or all of the new features, our advisors can leverage Agent Profiler to build their brand and help bring in new business.”
