As my business has grown and changed I have discovered my best skills are being under utilized. I am re-organizing my service offers and will be relaunching in the coming weeks to give you my very best to help you build professional and polished Travefy itineraries and landing pages.
Stay Tuned!!
Let me answer them
What is your Travefy experience?
I'm a power-user and have been creating itineraries and library items for 4 years. For the past 2 years I've been working exclusively with all things Travefy. I administer the largest unofficial Travefy Facebook group and occasionally get referrals directly from the Travefy team.
So what IS your travel industry experience?
As a career Travel Professional, I’ve worked hotel front desks to International Air Consolidator reservations. I’ve enjoyed being a brick & mortar and also a home-based leisure travel agent. I’ve had the pleasure and frustrations of tour directing. Most recently, my position was an in-house corporate travel agent at a Fortune 500 company. Comfortable with most aspects of travel, I’m confident I’ll understand your niche in the industry.
Knowing your back-office CRMs can come in handy if you need me to verify something you'd like me to add to your itineraries. I have worked with most of them and can navigate with ease through them.
What kind of turn-around time can I expect?
As long as I get your work by mid-afternoon, I can get started right away. For 2-week FITS or less complicated itineraries, I should get them done in 2 business days. Longer projects will need to be negotiated and fit into my available capacity.
How do you get paid?
I charge hourly unless it's a project you need. I invoice the first week of the month following any work I've completed. This means you don't need to prepay for any work I do.
I also work on an as-needed basis so that you don't need to pay any kind of retainer fees or be concerned about minimum hours per month.
You want to give your clients experiences that will inspire and instill that thirst for more travels. You want them to come back to you or refer you further because they trust your knowledge and know you’ll deliver. For that to happen, things under your control need to run smoothly.
Let me help.
I’ve had a career in the travel industry and understand what you’re going through.
More time in your days means more space to grow your business while doing the things you’d really rather be doing.

I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for sharing the Trello Master Template for Virtual Assistants. Your generosity in providing such a comprehensive resource is truly commendable.
The template has already proven to be an invaluable asset, streamlining our workflow and enhancing productivity within our team. Your thoughtful design and attention to detail have made a significant difference in our day-to-day operations.
Once again, thank you for your kindness and for making this remarkable tool available. Your contribution is deeply appreciated and will continue to benefit us immensely.
Karla has been essential to my business since I brought her on board. She is efficient and thorough and does what ever she is asked to do with a cheerful attitude and an attention to detail. When she does not fully understand things she does her research before asking for clarification and she always gives her best no matter what the request may be. Truly Karla is a blessing in our business and I look forward to working with her for many years to come! - McKee Travels
I have worked with Karla for 5 years and nothing but positive things to say. This is a difficult position due to the high volume and customer needs. Karla provided us with exceptional customer service. Her professionalism and travel knowledge helped our team get through our busiest season. - Senior Travel Advisor Northwestern Mutual
I'd like to give Karla a shout out for her help and guidance on an idea I had for using Travefy.
Being a new user of the system, I've been slowly trying to educate myself, but ran into something that was beyond my limited abilities. I jumped on to the Travefy Facebook Group and asked a couple of questions about systemizing and customizing my account, and asked if there were any Virtual Assistants or someone who might be able to help direct me.
Karla was one of the first people to whom I was able to connect with, and she was absolutely lovely. We had a great chat, and she shared a few little gems within the system that helped me immensely.
Karla was intelligent, funny and oh so helpful! If you have the chance to work with her, please do so, I'm sure you'll be glad you did.
Thank you!
