Contiki gives agents a head start on adventure

Contiki gives agents a head start on adventure
By admin


Contiki will revamp its agent offering in 2016, with the first change to be the earlier than ever launch of its Rock Around the World famil this Friday to give agents a “head start”.

“This year, we wanted to announce the destination in a really fun way and earlier than ever before. This gives agents a much longer lead time to work towards scoring themselves a space on the hottest famil going around,” managing director Katrina Barry said.

“In addition to launching ROCK Around the World earlier than ever, in 2016 we will also be ramping up our Contiki Rewards programme, with even more incentives offered to show agents how much we appreciate their hard work.”

Famils, Facebook giveaways, monthly bonus prizes and more will all form part of the agent overhaul, she revealed.

Contiki will release this year’s Rock Around the World, which has previously taken agents to Osheaga, Lollapalooza, Coachella, V Festival and many more throughout its 14 year history, following the completion of its fortnightly quiz by 1000 agents. The Rock Around the World announcement quiz will be available from 8am (AEDT) Friday January 22. Once the quiz has been completed by 1000 agents, Contiki will release the destination of the famil via its newsletter.

To complete the quiz, and get themselves and other agent colleagues closer to knowing this year’s Rock Around the World destination, agents simply need to visit facebook.com/groups/ContikiAgentsAus, join the page and click on the quiz to take part.
