BECOME A TIPTO AGENT AMBASSADOR


Last year, Tipto commenced its first ambassador programme to help shape the future of the membership group. The six current ambassadors are helping suppliers and the Tipto leadership team by bringing their knowledge and experience into conversations. The ambassadors act as spokespeople at key industry events and benefit from guaranteed invitations to special Tipto Ambassador and VIP events. If you’d like to join the valued group of Tipto Agent Ambassadors, email tipto@fore-uk.com, stating how you would fit the role and give examples of skills you possess to help shape Tipto’s future.


“Having worked for an independent travel agent for over 40 years, I know the


value and benefits an independent


company can bring to the public. I hope my experience in the


various roles I have held at Althams will be advantageous in my role as a Tipto


Agent Ambassador.” Beryl Towne, Althams Travel


“I’m truly honoured to add the title of Tipto Agent Ambassador to my accolades. I am a


regular at events and strongly believe they offer a very real opportunity for


agents to learn and therefore earn – no other association offers this on such a scale.”


Paul Knapper, Spires Travel

have been offered the position of Agent Ambassador. The


products that Tipto smaller supplier members offer are perfect for our

operators that invest and value our custom.” Sara Allen, The Dartmouth Travel Company


“I am a dedicated networker and have attended many Tipto


events over the years, so I’m delighted to


have been recognised for my support of the association. I feel privileged to have


been chosen as one of the first Tipto


Agent Ambassadors, it is a truly exciting opportunity.” Stef Trevett, Bailey’s Travel

become an Agent Ambassador and very much look forward to getting stuck into the role. Tipto is such a


valuable resource and I’m excited to use my knowledge of the industry and the challenges agents face to help Tipto shape their future.” Su Dillon,

“As a homeworker, Tipto keeps me


connected and I’m honoured to be an ambassador for an association that gives back to agents and suppliers alike. I hope to be able to bring
