Always Save Money!
Plan Travel with CM TRAVEL!
How CM TRAVEL saves money on travel:
CM TRAVEL utilizes multiple tools to save clients money, but the single most powerful tool… is also the most basic:CM TRAVEL “Get’s it done!”
Travellers enjoy planning… but hate booking travel!
> As soon as travelers choose the “how, what, when, and where” that defines their travel……the total cost of their chosen travel plan irreversibly increases each passing day until booked!
> Given most travelers do not complete booking travel for weeks (or months)… cost increases are significant! As a result, when travelers do finally book…
…to stay within budget, travelers often have bleak choices:
- travel fewer days
- downgrade quality of air, hotels, and rental cars, etc.
- reduce (or eliminate) tours and activities
- borrow money to pay increased travel costs
- stay at home… and not travel at all!
Booking delays are similar to flushing a toilet!
Delayed travel bookings versus toilets… the only difference is what is flushed away!In the case of delayed travel bookings.. it is money!
- Day one of delay, it is dollar bills swirling away.
- Within 2 to 3 days, it is 10 dollar bills gurgling away.
- The amount rapidly grows to 20, 50, and finally 100 dollar bills sucked away each passing day!
To speed along your next travel booking… just tape a 20 dollar bill to your toilet! The visual helps!
Or better…
