The QLD agent who made $30 million in sales

One Queensland travel agent has hit the big time, proving just how lucrative running your own business with Travel Counsellors can be.

Nadine Kutz of Queensland recently reached a sales milestone worth celebrating when she hit $30 million in total sales since she joined Travel Counsellors.

Starting her business with Travel Counsellors in July 2010, the mother of two has achieved the coveted Travel Counsellors Gold Status for each year she has been running her business yet it’s her phenomenal sales results that have put her in the spotlight recently.

“I was initially drawn to Travel Counsellors because I wanted a travel role that enabled me to explore my earning potential while being there for my family.

“Office and retail-based travel roles don’t usually afford much freedom or flexibility when it comes to the hours you work, so I loved the idea of running my own home-based enterprise for this reason,” explained Kutz.

“I really enjoy running my own business with the assistance and support of Travel Counsellors. With the head office team taking care of most of the marketing, administrative and technological aspects of the business, I am free to focus on my clients.”

Not one to become complacent, Kutz is always looking for new ways to improve her business, find new customers and increase her sales.

“While increasing my total sales each year is a wonderful achievement, I’m very pleased that my margin is also continually increasing. This means my earnings are also growing in value each year,” Kutz added.

“Apart from reaching a pretty significant sales milestone, what makes me really happy is that I’m able to work in a way that allows me to be there for my family.”

The Interim Managing Director of Travel Counsellors Australia, Fred van Eijk, praised Kutz for her success and said she is a prime example of what can be achieved by experienced travel agents who join Travel Counsellors.

“Year after year Nadine has consistently grown her business thanks to her excellent work ethic, can-do attitude and innovative approach,” van Eijk said.

“At Travel Counsellors, we focus on empowering travel agents to reach their full potential, earn what they’re worth and achieve a good work/life balance at the same time. Nadine’s recent sales milestone is a great reminder of how far agents can go with Travel Counsellors. The possibilities are truly endless.”
