Run your own business from home, the way you want to...

Running your own business, from

your home, the way you want

to, is one of the most rewarding

things you can do, and the cruise

industry – as the fastest growing

sector of the UK travel industry – is a

fantastic, fun industry to be involved

in. No longer the unreachable dream

it used to be, cruising is now seen as

an ideal alternative to a land-based

holiday or short break and you can

reap the rewards of this growing

sector as part of the GoCruise

franchisee business.

GoCruise and its parent company

Fred. Olsen Travel developed a

passion for cruising while the industry

was in the early stages of its dynamic

growth and we are now one of the

UK’s leading specialists in our field.

With us, you can get on with the

business of selling and building those

all-important relationships with your

customers, safe in the knowledge that

your business has all the ABTA and

ATOL protection you need to satisfy

your clients. As part of a franchise, you never

have to feel isolated, and you’ll be

hard pushed to find a franchisor

that enjoys what they do as much as

GoCruise. We love getting to know

each and every one of our franchisees

as we welcome them into our

GoCruise family. With a support team ready and

waiting at the end of the phone

to offer guidance on business

development, industry regulations,

sales or marketing and an admin team

taking care of all those hard earned

bookings; our franchisees are never

in doubt that they are very much part

of a team. This team experience is

nurtured throughout the year with

various events, and conferences

organised for the whole franchisee

network to meet, share experiences,

have a little fun and get a few helpful

tips from those who have already

‘been there and done that’.

Whilst previous travel industry

experience is not always essential,

having the necessary skills,

commercial awareness and business

acumen required for running a

successful agency is vital. Joining a

franchise such as GoCruise, where you

have access to product training, ship

visits, a full administration service and

support on business development,

marketing and ecommerce, will

provide you with everything you need

to be successful – add to this your

drive and determination and business

growth will soon follow!

• Membership of the Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA)

• Affiliation to the Association of British Travel Agents (ABTA)

• Access to full ATOL bonding when tailor making packages

• A franchise zone encompassing on average a quarter of a million people

• Free ship visits & familiarisation cruises on board major cruise lines

• Trade only special prices for personal use

• Flexible working hours to suit your life style and personal commitments

MEETING

Ocean & River Cruising

I believe that your holiday experience should start with the service you receive from initial contact through to being welcomed home. The detail that precedes your holiday is key to ensuring everything runs smoothly, so I focus on

getting that right. I have more than 15 years of cruising experience, and have also visited many other ships, both ocean and river, to enhance my cruising knowledge. I also do online training with many of the cruise lines, to keep up to date with what is

new in the industry. I am not tied to any one cruise or travel company, which allows me to understand your requirements and find the right holiday for you. There are so many choices. I am dedicated to giving you the right holiday at the right price. Giving you the holiday that you deserve is my goal. I have many loyal customers who have gone on to recommend me to friends, family and fellow cruisers. I

cannot think of a greater recognition of my service and I appreciate this loyalty.

I have ABTA & ATOL bonding, for your financial protection and peace of mind.

There are no debit card charges and no hidden booking fees when you book your holiday with me.

YourDedicatedGoCruise Specialist

Ian Warren

As an independent cruise consultant, and not tied to selling cruises with any specific company, I can help you find your ideal cruise whichever company it is with. My aim is always to book the right cruise for you.I have personally cruised with many different cruise lines, both ocean and river, and also make a point of visiting ships in port to give me a better understanding of what the differences are. This helps me to find you the right cruise. While onboard I always try to get photos and videos, which are available to view on my website www.cruiseswithgocruise.co.uk.The river Nile, being the longest river in the world, is a real interest of mine, and I have a dedicated website www.nilecruiseswithgocruise.co.uk to give you more information on cruising the Nile, and land based holidays in Egypt.

I understand that while many of my customers love cruising, they also like to try different holiday experiences, whether it is a luxury beach hotel & spa, an escorted tour, or perhaps something more bespoke. So I have put together this leaflet to show you some of the holiday companies and cruise lines I can offer you...

We had a three day training course at Head Office. We learned about

product knowledge, administration and the systems. They talk you

through your own business and all the aspects of it, such as sales and

marketing. They give you a good feel for that.

Ted Knights — GoCruise Franchisee

The Head Office team take care of all the administration leaving

me to focus on building the business, selling, and looking after my

customers. This ability to give the personal touch and customer

service does make all the difference.

Martin Hay — GoCruise Franchisee

The franchise means I can combine my enthusiasm for travel with a

business. With opportunities to visit ships and travel the world, I can

build my knowledge along with my business.
