nates Relations With YTB

Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL) has terminated their business relationship with the online travel agency YTB (Your Travel Biz). The two companies have quit doing business together, as of January 20, 2009. It has been reported that Norwegian Cruise Line quit taking any more new bookings from this company full of controversy. Although, NCL will continue to service existing YTB reservations, and pay commissions due on bookings prior to the recent announcement.

Earlier this year Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL) also stopped accepting reservations from independent agents affiliated with the travel company Joystar. You may have heard that Joystar is also considering filing Chapter 11. Travel agents, and others have filed a petition for involuntary bankruptcy against Joystar.

It is unclear how a travel company in the business of booking a variety of travel for a client can continue to function without the support of some of the major travel suppliers in the travel industry. Companies that have previously terminated their business with YTB are Royal Caribbean (another huge Cruise Line), Celebrity, Azamara, Perrillo, IATAN, (just to name a few). And now they have to add Norwegian Cruise Line to the list of suppliers refusing YTB service.

YTB is considered to be a “card mill” by many in the travel industry. YTB also faces a lawsuit later this year through the state of California, for accusations of an MLM performing as a pyramid scheme. The origional intent by Attorney General Edmund Brown Jr. was to shut down the company\’s unlawful operation before more people were hurt by this scam.

Other aligations have also been made against YTB, and will all be addressed during this September trial. The state of California is seeking $10 million in restitution for the California residents who bought into the business, and another $15 million in cival penalties.

Since the lawsuit was first presented, YTB has reported some changes in their business plan and stratagies. But will it be a case of “too little too late”? We will all be watching the outcome of this case. One has to wonder why it had to come to this in the first place?

Your Travel Biz (YTB) is an online travel company that has its own booking engine, is on the NASDAQ, relies only on network marketing for business and has produced many success stories.

Here are the keys to successful network marketing:

1. Don’t go to the people. Let them come to you. How do I do that? Get the word out to hundreds of thousands of people.

2. How do I reach people? Use the internet concept of Web 2.0 Get connected with every public internet site you can like Facebook, Squidoo, YouTube and any of them that allow you to put out your information and why they should join your YTB team. Also, sign up for every free article directory site you can and start telling the world about your business.

3. Locally you can reserve a cheap space in your town like a popular banquet hall. Put an ad in your town paper and place flyers around town inviting people to come hear about your opportunity. The people who want it will come. You might only have 30 people come but, that will turn into new people on your team. And you can do this in as many towns as you like!

4. SELL TRAVEL!!! Keep in touch with your new recruits. Help them get started right. The only way any of you will be successful, no matter how many people you bring in, is to SELL TRAVEL. It will benifit you.

5. Do whatever you can to concentrate on number one on this list. Using your time to go to people at random is a waste. Set out the good word and let them come to you. THAT’S THE SECRET TO GOOD NETWORK MARKETING!!!
