Your agency's financial story is already written. The question is whether you're reading it.

Most travel advisors got into this business because they love travel, not because they love spreadsheets. But ignoring the financial side of your agency isn't just stressful. It's costing you money you've already earned.

In this episode, we sit down with Stephanie Cannon, a licensed CPA, small business accountant, and 20-year travel advisor, for a candid conversation about the financial blind spots that affect advisors at every stage — from solo practitioners to agencies with 30+ advisors.

We cover what you should actually be tracking and how often, why "I'll deal with it at tax time" is quietly hurting your business, how to figure out what you need to earn to pay yourself what you're worth, the real cost of commissions you never reconcile, and why your numbers are telling you a story, you just have to be willing to read it.
