Travel Home Based Business Industry Shakeup Reveals Valid Player
Home-based travel business Platinum One Destinations standing tall.
Safety Harbor, FL (PRWEB) August 19, 2008 -- For home based business people in the travel industry, work means "paycations" and a low-stress "commute" from the kitchen to the home office. It's a utopian scene - and it's one that 200,000 distributors of Your Travel Biz (YTB) are now possibly having taken away. Thankfully, home travel businesses like Platinum One Destinations and its parent company, NetTrav Inc., are standing tall despite the travel industry's latest shake-up.
The LA Times reported in early August that the Attorney General for the State of California recently filed a $25 million dollar lawsuit against the popular home travel business Your Travel Biz (YTB) for being an illegal pyramid scheme. The lawsuit, which is still pending, claims that 62% of its 200,000 members did not generate any travel dollars at all, and the LA Times reported that the organization had recently lost its International Airlines Travel Agent Network Accreditation (IATAN).
With such a blow to the YTB company and its distributors, concerns that the reputation will spread throughout the sector are valid. Newer companies like Platinum One Destinations and NetTrav Inc., having been fully aware of the issues surrounding YTB and other travel home based businesses, spent several years before launching in 2007 reviewing these trends to ensure their products and compensation plan meet the standards of the travel sector and attorney generals. The company model is as follows:
| | - Platinum One Destinations and its parent company NetTrav, Inc. are a fully accredited, licensed and bonded full-service travel company registered or applied to operate in all 50 states as a "seller of travel."
- On average, 60% of profits are channeled back to independent, home-based distributors.
- The company itself holds full IATAN and CLIA accreditation. Distributors are not considered to be travel agents; they simply refer clients to the company's products and services.
- It isn't necessary to become a distributor in order to purchase Platinum One Products. Nor is it necessary to purchase product in order to become a distributor.
- The NetTrav personal travel portal is a consumer product where members receive price-match guarantee to sites like Expedia and Travelocity, with 50% rebates on travel commissions earned. With a separate affiliate registration, the site can be referred for 50% profit.
