Testimonials
I am so glad that Jim of Seven Lands and Seas Travel reached out to me to join their Signature agency as an independent contractor. Working with them has given me the opportunity to share my love of travel with friends and neighbors, and make a little extra each month which allows me to travel even more. Thank you to them and to Signature. All the tools are there to be as successful as you want to be.
Seven Lands & Seas Travel
Overview
Seven Lands and Seas Travel is a brick and mortar business located in Old Town Alexandria, Virginia. We opened our doors in January 2006 as Cruise Holidays of Alexandria. In October 2014, we joined the Signature Travel Network and changed our name to Seven Lands and Seas Travel, reflective of our growing business in land-based travel. Through hard work and a dedicated focus on crafting unique client experiences, we built a successful business in the upper premium and luxury leisure travel market. We also became a top 50 account with Oceania Cruises in 2008, and have maintained that status for eight consecutive years. Our largest cruise line partners are Oceania Cruises, Viking Cruises, Holland American Line and Regent Seven Seas Cruises. We also developed a special niche in wine and culinary travel, partnering with several Virginia wineries to offer exclusive food-and-wine-themed cruises to the Mediterranean, the Rhone River Valley, and Australia/New Zealand. This year, our president and co-owner, Jim Work, was selected as one of only 50 Signature travel agents designated as a Bon Appetite a Tastemaker, a special partnership with Oceania Cruises and Regent Seven Seas Cruises.
Independent Consultant Program Overview
We maintain a flexible independent contractor (IC) program based on the IC’s experience, existing book of business, and support the IC needs or desires from our employees. We offer support consisting of in-office or webinar training, administrative support, optional independent website, and client support services during periods when the IC is unavailable because of travel, illness or other reasons. Our commission split is generous and negotiable based on consideration of all these factors, and can be as much as 75/25.
