Anthony M. Gagliano, CEO of Travel Planners International, Inc. along with Tony Gagliano, Vice President, announced an exclusive nationwide Agent Perk and medical benefit program that is proprietary to the agents of Travel Planners International. “I believe this is a first for the travel industry.” said Anthony, as he released this groundbreaking arrangement.
TPI has teamed with Benefits Now LLC of Longwood, FL, a nationwide agency that delivers benefit programs to individuals via internet web conferencing. Benefits Now, LLC is on the leading edge of delivering high quality individual benefit programs and specializes in guiding clients through the complicated maze of uncertainty and confusion of health benefit selections.
This partnership places Travel Planners International in a position to offer a broad range of benefit options to its faithful agents, allowing them access to programs they would not otherwise have an opportunity to access. The Gagliano family feels that this is a giant step toward rewarding their agents for their loyalty and association with TPI.

Introducing Travel Planners International
Lead Generation Program!!!
One of the most essential tools to a travel agent is their database of clients. But what to do when the database runs dry? An agent can cold-call, or walk door-to-door for new prospects. Or an agent can invest in expensive advertising. Or an agent can subscribe to a lead service. There are many varieties of lead services out there, some good, some not so good. So, to take the guess work out of which lead service is best for active, qualified leads, Travel Planners International is pleased to offer our valued agents a solution to the challenge of finding leads. Our Lead Generation program will allow our agents to purchase leads at a discounted rate, and provide them with the tools and knowledge to effectively work the leads to produce sales.
Participants of the TPI Lead Generation Program will have access to a database of over 215 million names and addresses, with the ability to customize their list of names by personal characteristics and lifestyles. Most leads do not produce a high yield of sales. In fact, purchased leads typically generate a 1%-3% response rate. TPI wants to ensure success with the leads our agents purchase and is offering several different packages that will work for them. In addition to the leads, our agents will receive one-on-one consultation from our Business Development Specialists, quarterly training from TPI, enrollment in the Engagement program* and the TPI direct mail program*.
