My husband, Chris and I are US Army Veterans and have owned our travel franchise: www.kortetravel.com for almost 15 years. We were able to grow our business through networking and being Veterans gave us a unique way to market ourselves and stand out from the crowd of other travel agents. Our business was doing almost one million dollars in sales until Mid-March when the pandemic hit and all of our client’s 2020 bookings were eventually cancelled. Most people don’t realize that travel agents don’t get paid until their clients actually depart on their trips, so when all of our bookings were cancelled, we lost most of our 2020 income. The good news is that the majority of these bookings have been rebooked for 2021 and 2022. But for us to be able to deal with this lapse of income and to help us to continue to stay in touch with our client base, we needed to think outside of the box about what our next steps would be. We pivoted and are now assisting our clients to maintain their health with our new business. Our new business is www.kortehealth.com and our tag line is “Thrive - Live Well - Travel”. It’s very difficult to comfortably travel unless you maintain your health, so these businesses have blended really well together. The backbone of our success initially came from being able to market ourselves as Veterans. It’s been quite the business journey over the years as Chris and I continue to work together every day. Also, since we met and were married within one year of joining the Army our greatest gift and inspiration, from our time in the service, has been our many personal blessings: 45 years of marriage, two children and three grandchildren. Chris and I both agree that serving our country was definitely the best personal and financial decision we have ever made.
I have found that my best sources of business advice are from my connections at LinkedIn. I’m hoping I will grow similar connection resources with Alignable.
