Not Just Travel

Two fabulous Not Just Travel Consultants have made waves with a unique networking cruise! 🌊 💼 Huge congratulations to Rachel Tredwell and Janet Lacey (Stelling) for organising an incredible networking cruise on Virgin Voyages' Resilient Lady! ❤️ Our talented Travel Consultants booked an impressive 41 people in 23 cabins for their "Cruise to Success" event, featuring keynote sessions from inspiring speakers and opportunities for networking and business growth 🚢 🎤 Janet said “The fact that attendees could fully immerse themselves in their businesses, meant a great deal to our guests. They could dedicate time working on and developing their businesses, through inspirational expert-led sessions, peer networking and simply having time to step away and think.” The event was a huge hit, with Rachel saying “Based on our recent success, we’re already planning the next business networking and training event for 2025 – looking at another cruise or an on-land destination. The feedback is that pretty much everyone wants to do it again – and they will also recommend attendance to colleagues and connections.” Read the full story on Travel Gossip 👉 https://lnkd.in/e8-fjfKY
