“Do what you do so well that they will want to see it again and bring their friends.”
~Walt Disney


Our Philosophy

We strive to provide an exceptional experience to our Wanderlust Consultants which includes mentoring, education, recognition and rewards. We believe in teamwork and development.  As such we will hold monthly meetings or conference calls for communication. Additionally, there will be an annual meeting at a destination where training will be partially funded by either the agency or the destination host.

Integrity is an integral part of our agency and what we do.  We are trusted by our clients to ensure that their private information is kept safe.  As such, we perform a background check on anyone that we wish to extend an offer.  The offer is contingent on the results of the background check.  Additionally, all agents are contracted to maintain high ethical standards.

Wanderlust Consultants are independent contractors and are building their own client base.  This role is not for those who are not looking for a hobby but those who are looking to grow their own enterprise.

Please note that all candidates are required to go through a development period of at least 3 months. During that time they will be mentored and evaluated to ensure they have the knowledge and certifications needed to proceed as a Consultant. Candidates who are self starters can finish their development training early.  Once a candidate has completed the training and has demonstrated superior knowledge to their mentor, the candidate will be given a full contract.  More information will be provided during the interview.

The agency requires Consultants to use a database/CRM (Customer Relationship Manager) system and does provide E&O insurance along with several other office administration costs for our Independent Contractors.  We subsidize some of the cost of these for our agents but they are required to pay certain costs in advance and at renewal. More information is provided during the interview and development training.

Please note: travel discounts are offered at the discretion of the vendor and are typically limited in availability and usage as well as subject to sales performance.

***** IMPORTANT INFORMATION*****​

Certain states require licensing or registration to agents who live in and/or market to residents of these states.   

Florida is one of these states.  All agents who live in Florida must register and all agents who market/ sell to residents of Florida must register.  There is an annual registration requirement and a fee to be paid to the state.

Due to regulatory requirement costs in California and Delaware, the agency does not market to residents of these states and the agents of the agency may not market/ sell to residents of these states.  We also cannot have any agents who are residents of CA & DE.
