Your earning potential is only limited by the amount of work you put in and your motivation to succeed. Agents have earned as a minimum $200 per booking but can earn as much as $10k+ for group bookings on vacations. Many vendors pay as much commission as up to 15% of the booking fee. This means that if you are still vacationing and not cashing in on your own trips, that is money left behind on the table. Why not earn commission back on your own vacations or maybe friends and family members?
