Jake Heads to Gold Medal’s Big Day Out – A Big Win for Travel Franchise Owners
Last week, our co-founder Jake represented The Good Travel Agent at Gold Medal’s Big Day Out and what a day it was. From supplier showcases and expert sessions to networking with some of the best in the industry, the event was a powerful reminder of why being part of a travel franchise opens so many doors.
What is Gold Medal’s Big Day Out?
Hosted by one of the UK’s leading travel suppliers, Gold Medal’s Big Day Out is an annual event bringing together travel professionals, tour operators, and suppliers for a jam-packed day of learning, inspiration, and connection.
From luxury resorts to bucket-list destinations, the event showcased the very best of what’s available to UK travel sellers and gave agents the tools they need to create unforgettable holidays for their clients.
Why Events Like This Matter to Travel Franchise Owners
When you join a travel franchise like The Good Travel Agent, you’re not going it alone. You’re joining a network that’s deeply connected with top suppliers, which means access to training events, insider knowledge, and exclusive perks.
Jake spent the day meeting suppliers face to face, discussing new products, and discovering fresh ways for our franchisees to deliver even more value to their customers. It’s these types of relationships that keep our homeworking travel agents one step ahead and it’s all part of the package when you join a franchise that invests in your growth.
“These events are more than just networking,” Jake said. “They’re about staying inspired and making sure our agents are equipped with the best tools, rates, and support to succeed. It was great to see so many suppliers eager to work with our franchisees.”
