Not Just Travel Crushes January Sales Records
There’s no slick; the numbers speak for themselves: the travel consultancy is celebrating its best‑ever month of sales in 22 years of operation.
Surge in Revenue & Bookings
- Revenue jumped 41 % vs. January 2023.
- Holiday bookings climbed 32 %.
- January 30th & 31st were record‑setting days.
Crises of the Sea? Not at All!
Crucial to the boom were cruise sales – a whopping 64 % increase in revenue and 25 % rise in bookings for this month alone.
Consultants hitting six‑figure sales went up 15 % YoY, proving that the talent is real and the training’s on target.
Inside the Celebration: Paul Harrison’s Take
Founder Paul Harrison says it’s thanks to “exceptional passion” from the team, coupled with more agents, tighter training, and support that’s pushed margins higher – especially for cruise bookings.
“We’ve been plotting and polishing our agents for this era of the travel world. All our effort feeds into the training we give and the chances for our key partners. The sales prove it – it works.”
Harrison stresses that despite predictions of a drop post‑pandemic, “the trade has never been stronger, and agents are reporting even busier workloads.”
New‑Blood Success Stories
- Natalie Downey, fresh from virtual training in early January, booked £28,000 in under two weeks.
- The company’s veteran brought in a £119,000 one‑off booking this month.
- Palvi Harvey raked in nearly £200k in January – all from repeat customers, proving quality service pays off.
Speedy Support
Even with a record flood of bookings, the NJT support team kept wait times below 60 seconds on average.
Customers Going All‑Out
Now that the first payday is in, Brit travellers are splurging on trips, demanding memories over savings. “People aren’t skimping – they want holiday experiences that matter,” says one senior exec.
Growth Hustle
Not Just Travel has seen the biggest month‑over‑month rise in active consultants: 100 + new agents jumped in within a single calendar month.
All in all, the company is pumped, the team is thriving, and the vacation lovers are finally heading off to the continent, the sea, or wherever – all with a comfy seat at the back of the journey and a smile on their faces.
