Byrd says: “This type of work may seem unnecessary, but when someone leaves, you will not have to go back to square one with training. It’s more of a plug-and-play model at that point. You’re going to take the time to train, just record that instead, and have it so they can go back to reference at any time.” Steven Gould Email Travel Advisor Resource Center (TARC) Goulds Travel Luxera Travel “The Perfect Consultation & Proposal,” a resource from Steven and Byrd Sales Strategies for Travel Professionals on Facebook Mentioned on this episode: Pineapple Virtual Assistant Hub Tess Upwork Fiverr Lucia Emma’s Timing Cube Need advice?
