Balancing work and personal life is often challenging, and it becomes even more difficult for business travellers. However, a travel management company like Travel Counsellors for Business can make a significant difference in maintaining a healthy work-life balance.
We explore how leveraging the services of a travel management company can transform the business travel experience for your employees, ensuring they stay productive while prioritising their wellbeing.
Support with making your travel policy more care-centric
We’ll work with you to make improvements to your travel policy, taking a more care-centric approach and ensuring that every trip is beneficial to both your business and the individual traveller. This could include:
Providing a concierge-style service
Your dedicated Travel Counsellor will go to the ends of the earth for your business and your travellers, and that includes arranging special requests to support the wellbeing of your colleagues.
Whether it’s booking them in for a gym class or spa treatment, arranging a dinner reservation at their favourite restaurant, or ensuring that specific dietary needs are catered for, we’ll take care of the little touches that make a huge difference.
Arranging ‘bleisure’ trips
There’s a growing demand for trips that combine work with leisure. We can arrange for their family to fly out and join them for an extended stay once their work duties are done – allowing them to spend quality time together.
Our service goes far beyond arranging flights out to your traveller's location. Our Travel Counsellors will get to know the individual preferences of your travellers and their families, so they can book suitable family-friendly accommodation, as well as excursions and experiences that will make their trip a truly memorable one.
The technology to keep you and your travellers informed
Disruption to travel plans, and the ordeal of having to sort out any problems, can be a huge cause of stress for business travellers.
When your colleagues are out on the road, they’ll have all their documentation in the palm of their hand through the myTC mobile app. Not only will they be able to view their tickets and itinerary, they’ll also be alerted if there are any delays or cancellations that could affect their trip. And if there are, we’ll jump into action to make alternative arrangements, whatever country or time zone they’re in. We’ll never leave anyone stranded.
We also recently launched myTC Locate, a real-time, data-driven platform that helps to mitigate risks when your people are travelling for business. It will give you insights that will help to inform whether a trip should go ahead at all - and if the trip does go ahead as planned, passive tracking allows you to respond to unexpected events quickly.
Experience the difference with Travel Counsellors for Business and take the first step towards a more balanced and fulfilling travel experience. Reach out today to learn more about how we can support your business travel needs.
