Why choose just any travel homeworking company, when you can help build one?
If you’ve been researching independent travel consultants, you’ve likely noticed something — many companies claim to offer support, flexibility, and freedom. But scratch beneath the surface, and what you’ll often find is a rigid model, impersonal systems, and a focus on sales over people.
At The Independent Travel Consultants, we believe you deserve more than that. We're not just another travel homeworking opportunity — we're a movement, a community, and a new way of doing things that puts consultants at the heart of the business.
From day one, we’ve worked alongside our members to shape something that feels truly different: honest, empowering, and built for the future.
Here’s what really sets us apart.
Built by Travel Consultants, for Travel Consultants
We’re not a faceless franchise. We’re a community-first business built from the ground up by people who’ve been in your shoes. Our founder, Jamie Wake, has over two decades of travel and business experience — and created this platform with one goal: to make it easier for passionate people to succeed in travel without being micromanaged or misled.
That means no over-the-top promises. No hidden charges. And no compulsory branding. You’re the brand — we’re here to support it.
Flexibility Without the Fluff
We don’t do gimmicks. We don’t force you into minimum sales targets. And we won’t penalise you for taking a break. Whether you’re working full-time, part-time, or just starting out slowly, The Independent Travel Consultants offers complete flexibility with the structure to scale.
You can work when you want, how you want, and grow your business at your own pace. Want to take the kids on holiday during term time? Go for it. Need a side hustle that fits around another job? No problem. Looking to build a serious six-figure travel business? We’ll show you how.
Commission Transparency (With No Nasty Surprises)
Let’s talk money — because too many companies avoid it.
At The Independent Travel Consultants, we’re completely transparent about what you earn. You’ll always know what commission you’re entitled to, how it’s calculated, and when it’s paid. You’ll never have to chase it. And unlike many other platforms, we don’t eat into your commission with unnecessary fees or affiliate deductions.
We even help you track your earnings, plan your growth, and celebrate your milestones. Your success is ours.
Real Support (That Feels Like a Team, Not a Script)
When we say you’ll be supported — we mean it. You’ll never be left to figure things out alone. We offer:
- Personal mentoring from experienced agents
- A thriving online community (where no question is too silly)
- Regular training sessions tailored to your goals
- Business support from people who genuinely care about your development
And here’s the key difference: we treat every consultant like an individual, not a number. Whether you’re smashing sales or just making your first booking, you’ll always be valued.
Your Brand, Your Way
Unlike traditional models that make you fit into their brand, we empower you to build your own.
Want to sell luxury travel under your own name? Great. Have a niche in LGBT+ holidays, wellness escapes or family adventures? Even better. We’ll help you develop your personal brand, not dilute it.
You’ll get access to branded tools and resources from us — but you’re always in control of your own marketing, imagery, tone, and direction. We're here to lift you up, not box you in.
A Platform for Every Stage of Your Journey
Whether you’re brand new to the travel industry or a seasoned pro looking for a fresh start, our model adapts to you. That’s why we don’t offer “packages” — we build tailored pathways based on your ambitions, availability, and level of experience.
And for newcomers? We don’t see inexperience as a problem — we see it as potential. With our guidance, you’ll learn the ropes, master the tools, and build real confidence faster than you think.
Jamie Says:
“I’ve seen the good, the bad, and the ugly of travel homeworking. That’s why I built something that doesn’t just talk about empowerment — it lives it. Every consultant who joins us helps shape the future of this business. We’re not here to control you; we’re here to champion you.”
Travel Industry Protections You Can Trust
Your clients deserve to feel safe when booking with you — and you deserve peace of mind too. That’s why all holidays booked through The Independent Travel Consultants come with:
- Supplier Failure Insurance (SFI)
- Scheduled Airline Failure Insurance (SAFI)
- ATOL-protected package holidays
- Full consumer protection under UK Package Travel Regulations
It means your clients are always in safe hands, and you can sell with total confidence — even as a sole trader.
