I totally agree that these MLM's have got to stop. Many of us have worked for years (29 for me) and have worked in gaining knowledge and experience, client base, and the professionalism that any reputable business should have. Why do these so called agents travel so much? Because they are in it only for the benefits and are not working the business.

Legitimate travel agents truly love what we do and realize what it takes to help our mutual clients get the most from their travel experience. We, as a concerned travel community, want you to seriously reconsider extending benefits and courtesies to MLM (YTB) types of "travel agents". If you understand MLM and really think about this, these people are simply "using you" the vendor for their own gain. Chances are they won't even ever sell travel, so why in the world would you extend a travel agent discount to someone who claims to be a travel agent? I see no value to our vendors at all by working with these types of organizations. People who are in this business just so they can "travel" are not the types of travel agents most agencies want to hire, so why would you?? Thank you for your time in considering our petition.

I know this is a second entry, but I noticed one important item from Scott Holland (#189). MLMs are the things that make the public dislike agents in general, even the qualified ones. This is the truth. I also see others commenting "stop this practice". Well, the truth is that no one can stop this practice but us. The suppliers are interested in making money, and you can't blame them for selling to whoever comes to them with a sale. If we're going to put an end to MLMs, we have to take matters into our own hands, and establish the standards that make an agent a "professional" and make these standards known to the general public. To rephrase a line from Karl Marx: Travel agents of the world Unite! We've got nothing to lose but the MLMs!. And that wouldn't be much of a loss; it would be a 790 Douglas Shachnow CTC CTIE MCC DSs major gain.

I have worked hard to further my education and build a business only to have this type of program infiltrate my area and confuse people. I often call calls from YTB's clients who are lost and without real guidance. I try to be helpful when possible, but I don't think it is fair that I've invested years in my business and now everyone can have the designation of a 850 Kristin Webb-Walker "travel agent," with no training or requirements. 851 Tina Kibodeaux K&T Travel

My wife made a comment in a travel trade magazine article on cruise line air commissions. She received 28 "opportunity" letters promising her HUGE commissions on air bookings - ALL from YTB members. We investigated each one to see where they were from. Now, we're afraid to allow one of us to be quoted in a trade magazine again for fear of having these ruthless MLM'ers beating on our door and flooding our inboxes.

I have been in the travel agency business for over 30 years, and until the last 10, I have never seen our industry and our knowledge so decimated by the so called card mill travel agents. They are like locust and cheapen our profession. The majority know less about travel and could care less about the profession. They are in it to travel more cheaply, show up at trade shows trying to get more people to join, and further confuse the general public who still does not seem to know the benefits of using a REAL travel consultant Unfortunately I have had calls from clients who have used a card mill agent, a coworker, a neighbor, a friend of a friend, a relative, some one in their social club or church, the list goes on. In many cases the experience was was disappointing and now they want full proof from me that I am a long standing agent.

I am also in the real estate business and on October 16, the Corporate Broker of my real estate company, was promoting YTB as another source of income for the slow market in real estate. One of the Realtors of my office handed me her YTB card and asked me to sign up, as it was a great deal for saving money to travel. I told her I was already in the travel business - and that it was frowned upon in the travel industry for this type of business (MLM). She didn't of course care. She also said after asking her how she handles her bookings, that once she books a trip - her customer has to deal directly with the company she books with if there are any problems in wanting to change or cancel their bookings. It was very upsetting to me to see our Corporate Broker promoting YTB. So I have not wanted to be around the hype of this office. Its very upsetting to hear other Realtors talk about this program.

Being a travel agent has all ways been a dream and a serious passion. In June 2007 I began researching th field of travel and what is required. and after spending months I was torn between two different host agencies, but before making my decision I was also approached by a YTB agent. After hearing her sales speech I was convinced that it sounded too much like a pyramid and I was not interested. I did choose a host agency and spent the last month training. I have completed Carnival and Royal Caribbean's travel agent courses and earned certificates. I also completed through Travel Agent Academy Cancun, BVI, Destination Wedding Specialist, Bahamas, , Couples Resort and I have begun Princess and Cunard certificate programs. I have subscribed to every (and I mean every) online and print magazine, as well as any other organization that provieds me with education that is needed to stay ahead. I have also begun the ACC certificate through CLIA. I am serious about 1429 Laurell this business of travel.

How 'bout going after World Ventures? On the website, their co-founder Wayne Nugent's profile even proclaims him to be "the most passionate evangelist for Network Marketing as the premier distribution channel of leisure travel." Network marketing IS MLM. Yes, you too, can instantly become a travel agent for $400 registration, and $39.96/month for the rest of your life. Heck, give us your credit card number, and you can register your dead gramma too. We don't care, we just need one more person to put on the left side of our network, and you'll get a $100 bonus. And, if you act today, we'll throw in 2 free nights in Vegas! (Sorry Mr. Nugent, don't take it personally, I just don't like your company!

Joystar hates card mills! Before ever mentioning the Joystar name, in the same breath, grouping, or comparing Joystar with YTB, please check the facts. There are only 2 people in the world who ever called Joystar anything other than a PROFESSIONAL HOST AGENCY and they were and still are very mistaken. If anyone does the research, they will find out that Joystar is not, will not be, nor has ever been a card mill, MLM, nor encourages their agents to simply sell themselves their own travel or to refer people to a website for fulfillment. It is simply not true. I have been with 2 hosts prior to Joystar, and researched Joystar for over a year prior to joining them because they have the one of best programs, support, and vision. I challenge anyone and everyone to provide just a hint of real evidence to prove Joystar is anything other than a very 1971 JERRY TAPP strong fast growing professional host agency. 1972 john bernatz huntington harbour travel 1973 Cheryl LeBoeuf 1974 Jean Williams 1975 Sherry Conley

To those of us who actually consider this a profession, this is long overdue. To allow untrained, inexperienced and self- serving consumers to represent themselves as travel agents demeans the entire profession.

It is irritating when their clients call our agency to obtain information such as whether or not a visa is required, general destination information, etc., when their AGENT should have been the one advising them. Usually "their friend, the agent" doesn't have a clue! I always refer them back to their own booking source. I think the public should be more educated about the importance of booking with qualified professionals in this business to protect their investment because travel is an investment in their well being. I also feel the general public has the misconception that all travel agencies are somehow subsidized by the government; therefore, it's okay for them to call us to obtain general information with regards to travel. They don't understand that we operate in a competitive business world and need to make money to survive. Because of this, we do our best to provide the best customer service so 2489 Nita Gesner, CTC, DS that we can retain our clientele.

Along with this they were offering lower than the standard cruise prices by providing kickbacks. They also indicated that CLIA training was a waste of money. I have owned a franchise for over 6 years before I became comfortable that I had enough knowledge to start my own LLC.
