This week’s Friday 15, we're welcoming Vanessa from Global Travel Collection! Let’s have some fun, plus some questions to discuss this Friday at 12 pm CST. Join us! I am an IC with about 2 years in the business. I'm considering going out on my own because I'm not happy with my situation for many reasons. How do you know it's the right time to make this change? What do you see as the pros and cons of staying an IC and being independent?I’m finding it can sometimes feel awkward or intimidating to confidently charge fees, upsell experiences, or position yourself as a premium service. What advice would you give to advisors who know they provide value but still struggle with the sales side of their business?There’s so much pressure right now for us to constantly be posting on social media, building a brand, creating content, and trying to stay visible online. What marketing activities are actually moving the needle for advisors today versus what’s just creating noise and burnout?Guide to charging fees - https://hostagencyreviews.com/blog/travel-agents-guide-to-charging-fees
