CONVENTION LOST AND FOUND |
|
| |
Please help one of your fellow RTAs!
One of our valued RTAs needs your help! A speech device
located inside one of the Freedom backpacks was lost at
the convention. This device is a lifeline for this RTA and
it is very important that it be located.
The device is
gray in color, approximately 9" x12" and three inches
thick, with a keyboard and screen that lights up for the
user. It's possible someone may have mistakenly picked up
the wrong backpack and not even know it! If anyone has
knowledge of or has located a speech device, please
contact mdempsey@ytb.com.
Thank you for your help!

PASSPORT TO GIVING TRAININGS |
|
| |
|

Passport to Giving Trainings
With so much new material now presented in the Passport to Giving program, we encourage any RTA previously certified under the Association Program (now known as the Passport to Giving Program) to take a refresher class at any live location free of charge. (This refresher class is not a requirement to remain certified.)
|
Many non-profits today are looking for a new way to
fundraise and we have the answer! Forget the candy or bake
sales and clunker car programs; travel is the ultimate
fundraiser! Our innovative program provides non-profit
organizations
a dramatically different way to raise funds for their
organization.
By enrolling a non-profit in this unique program, the
organization is provide a "private label" YTB travel
website customized with their organization name and log.
The website is then promoted to the organizations'
supporters and members to use when booking their personal
or business travel. (We can also assist the organization
in organizing group travel events for their supporters).
As supporters use the organization's travel website, the
organization receives 60% of the travel commissions earned
by YTB, paid as royalties.
|
The RTA who sponsors the
non-profit receives a 10% override of the travel
commissions generated by the non-profit and a $300 signing
bonus (60% of the sign-up fee)!
Passport To Giving can raise thousands of dollars per year
for an organization because they have a large number of
supporters that will generate travel bookings! Examples of
appropriate organizations include service, fraternal,
health, alumni, political, environ-mental, charity,
religious (including churches), and educational
organizations.
There are 1.5 million non-profits in the U.S. that need
our program! If you want to help non-profits and create a
consistent stream of income for your YTB business, come
join us in the Passport To Giving Program! |

UPCOMING YTB FIRST CLASS EVENTS |
|
|
RTA Certification Classes (CRTA)
will now be known as
YTB "First Class!"
Take your YTB businesses to the next level as you learn from
the best in your business - The YTB Directors! |
 |
|
YTB "FIRST CLASS"
SCHEDULE
The training formerly known as CRTA (or RTA Certification) is now known
as
YTB "First Class!"
We are proud to make this change
effective immediately. It represents a change to the name and
some course content only, providing updates and an enhanced
Powerpoint presentation that has been developed over the past few
months. This does not change the way YTB Reps or RTAs conduct
business. If you have previously attended a CRTA training, you
are welcome to attend a First Class session,
however the content has not significantly changed.
Directors will be teaching your
YTB "First Class" courses -
these field leaders will share the knowledge and experience they
have gained on their way to outstanding YTB success. Remember what Coach says: "To be a success, find a successful person and
follow their plan!"
If you haven't attended a
YTB "First Class," plan to do so
soon!
The education and motivation are priceless!
Click each event for more details.
Your
"First Class"
instructors (YTB
Directors) are listed for each event. |
|
Register from your Back Office and you're on your way! |
| |
|
IMPORTANT NOTE:
RTAs and guests may audit YTB "First Classes" at no charge.
RTAs may pay the course fee at a later date if they desire the
class credit.
