Tipto’s super website
Our interactive website,
tipto.co.uk, is password protected exclusively for independent agents. We update daily with Hot News, Special Offers, Window Posters and Incentives & Competitions. It also allows you to book a place at our roadshows and events. Our online training programme has a module for each supplier member and is a perfect vehicle for agents to learn
more, as well as a great tool for trainees and new staff. To register, click on ‘register’, or email
tipto@thenetwork-uk.com.
Tipto was launched in 1999 as a group of leading tour operators and travel suppliers. We have 19 supplier members, all committed to building relationships and supporting homeworkers and agents. See the inside back cover for details of our events in 2016!
Zena Hill, Tipto chairman Our mission at Tipto is to deliver the very best roadshows and Face 2 Face events for travel agents. If you’ve been to any of our events, you’ll know that we follow up immediately to ask your feedback on everything we do. We also ask our suppliers for their views. And it’s amazing to see that we actually all want the same thing - MORE, MORE, MORE! More time with agents, more agents at
events, more specialist suppliers, more prizes and more fun! Now in our 17th year, we have six new
supplier members – and we’re seeing more agents face to face than ever. This is what you can expect from us this
year: l More suppliers – we have 19 tour operator members and you can read all about them in this supplement. Be sure to take note of their hints and tips!
l More roadshows – we’ve listened to your feedback and now give agents more time with operators.
l New SuperShows – our biggest shows ever! All agents are welcome to join us at our SuperShows, where you’ll have an opportunity to meet all the Tipto suppliers and enjoy some fab entertainment.
l New training days – meet four to five Tipto suppliers for a morning of detailed product training, along with a special guest professional trainer who will offer some great tips!
l VIP events – something new every year to reward our most supportive agents! We’ve held a day at the races (very swanky), a luxury afternoon tea and a dinner cruise on the Thames.
You’ll find dates, locations and more information on all our events at
tipto.co.uk. It’s quick and easy to register and I can assure you that you’ll have a brilliant time – and maybe even leave with an amazing prize!
