Collette ushers in new era with cross-Canada Encompass campaign
Collette has been on the road, bringing details of four new tools it’s offering travel advisors as part of its cross-Canada Encompass launch campaign.
The 12 events provided travel advisors with details on Collette’s new tools, but it was also an opportunity to celebrate the beginning of the tour company’s 107th season of travel.
The four new, self-service tools, which were designed in partnership with travel advisors, include MyCollette and the Travel Advisor Portal, which are designed to enhance efficiency; while their learning tools — Collette University and the Travel Advisor Resource Guide – are focused on building confidence in selling.
The events included networking over cocktails and canapés or a leisurely breakfast, a comprehensive overview of the new tools by a Collette representative, a sneak peek into new tours, and opportunities to work one-on-one with Collette team members.
Lynda Dennis, CTC at the Travel Agent Next Door, said that: “The Encompass event was a great overview of what Collette can offer you [the advisor] and your guests. Along with the Travel Advisor Guide, I feel I have a very good understanding of the product. I spent the afternoon completing the Collette University training. It is well organized into modules and Kelsie as instructor made the learning quick and fun.”
In addition to the tools, each event launched the beginning of Collette’s 107th year of travel and the 15th anniversary of their Small Group Explorations product line.
Ron Lonsdale, Vice President of Collette, observed that: “Events like these allow us to get direct feedback and have great conversations. By partnering with travel advisors, we’re able to develop and enhance tools that truly help them work more efficiently and sell with confidence.”
The Collette team is working on more courses and learning paths for Collette University and enhanced resources in the Travel Advisor Portal.
