Ya'll loved the first version so much that you requested a cruise specific version, so here we are!

I'm breaking down exactly how many cruises you need to sell at every price point to hit $50,000 as a travel agent, from a Royal Caribbean balcony in Alaska all the way up to a world cruise on Oceania.

We're talking mass market, premium, luxury, and expedition cruises, as well as selling suites versus balconies, and how that changes how many bookings you actually need.

I think these numbers are going to make you rethink where you're spending your time and who you're marketing to, so grab a pen and let's do some math together.

Questions this episode answers:

• How many cruises does a travel agent need to sell to make $50,000 a year?
• How much commission do travel agents make selling cruises?
• Is it more profitable to sell cruise suites or balcony cabins as a travel agent?
• What is the difference in commission between mass market, premium, and luxury cruise lines?
• How much do travel agents make selling world cruises?
• Should travel agents charge fees on cruise bookings?
• How many cruise bookings does a travel agent need per week to reach their income goal?
• What cruise lines pay the most commission to travel agents?

Enjoy and take action!
