Why a Travel Management
Company?
“I just wanted to sing praise of Traci Yarnell for her help on an
itinerary that consisted of 5 different cities in 5 different days,
and included 4 travelers. Several different issues came up and we
were fortunate that Traci was smart enough to think things through
on her own and saved the whole trip. She was flexible, helpful, and
extremely organized, and on top of that she saved us 900.00 per
ticket. She was always thinking of ways to make this trip better. We
sincerely appreciate it and we thank you.”
Almost every business
has the ability to substantially improve profit performance, but
many don't realize that, with the insight from industry experts, it
can happen overnight. As companies face intense pressures to be
more competitive and to increase shareholder value, attention must
be directed to the reduction and control of all expenses, especially
travel. Few businesses have the in-house expertise or time to
undertake an extensive travel profit-improvement review. Even fewer
have the financial resources needed to bring in third party
management consultants.
Travel and
entertainment expenses are the third largest, but often least
controlled expense for many companies. Major organizations cite
their travel budgets as 1% to 3% of gross with some as high as 2% or
4% of gross. Current economic conditions are forcing many of these
companies to review their travel management programs, seeking
increased cost savings and improved service levels. Effectively
implementing and administering a proactive travel management program
can produce substantial cost savings.
