Becoming a Home-Based Travel Agent in Canada

The home-based travel agent model has grown dramatically in recent years. With modern booking platforms and video calling, you can run a full-service travel business from your home office — or anywhere with a good internet connection.

What You Need to Get Started

  • A computer and reliable internet connection
  • A dedicated phone or VoIP number for client calls
  • Access to a booking platform (provided by Phoenix Voyages)
  • A quiet space for client consultations

Finding Your First Clients

Most home-based advisors start with their personal network — friends, family, and colleagues who know and trust them. From there, referrals, social media, and community involvement grow the business organically.

Income Potential

Home-based advisors earn commissions on every booking. The more clients you serve and the more they travel, the more you earn. Many advisors also charge planning fees — a growing practice that compensates for the time invested in complex itineraries.
