Would like to become a Travel Agent

Hi all,

I have been researching how to become a Home-based travel agent for a bit now. I'd love to specialize in Disney and become an agent for a Disney specific agency like Mouse Fan, The Magic For Less, Dreams Unlimited, etc. Do any of you work for a Disney specific agency? If so, which one and how do you like it? Did they train at all? Is the support good? Do they provid leads? Once thing I was worried about was marketing and client management. Do they provide client management software? If so, does the agency email your client list? Can you customize those emails to ensure they come from your company and not the host agency? Can you customize the emails to send to only certain clients? Any other info you could provide would be great. If you don't feel comfortable posting the info here, please email me at KatyGreen74@yahoo.com.

Thanks so much,
Katy
