Find out where your travel agency is losing money.

Most growing travel agencies lose money in small ways. It happens at each step of every booking. Quotes go cold. Commissions get missed. Clients do not come back because nobody followed up. Each problem seems small. But across your team and hundreds of bookings a month, it adds up fast.

The problem · why money leaks out

When your agency grows, small problems appear. They quietly cost you money.

These leaks are not big or obvious. They happen at the edges of every booking. A quote sent but never followed up. A commission nobody claimed because the reconciliation was late. A client who had a great trip but booked their next one somewhere else because nobody called. Each one seems minor. But across your whole team and hundreds of bookings a month, they add up to real money.

01

More consultants means more chances for things to fall through.

Each new consultant and each new booking adds more steps to your process. More steps mean more places where work can slip quietly through the gaps.

02

Each problem seems small on its own.

A cold quote here. A missed commission there. A client who did not rebook. None of these feels like a big deal on its own. Together, they form a pattern that costs real money every month.

03

The total cost is hard to see unless you look for it.

Most travel agency owners know something is off. Our diagnostic maps every step of your booking process. It shows you where the leaks are and what they cost.

The Travel Agency Leakage Diagnostic starts with a free 3-minute scorecard. It checks nine steps in your booking process and tells you right away where you might be losing money.

Who this is for · is this right for you?

This check works best for travel agencies at a certain stage.

Not every travel agency needs this. It works best for owners who have grown past the point where one person can keep track of everything — but have not yet set up clear systems to stop bookings, commissions, and clients from slipping away.

Your size

You have five or more consultants handling bookings.

  • A mix of leisure and corporate travel
  • Multiple suppliers across flights, hotels, and transfers
  • At least one person managing the team alongside their own bookings
Warning signs

You feel like you are losing revenue but cannot find where.

  • Quotes go out and do not convert — follow-up is inconsistent
  • Commission reconciliation is slow or done by hand
  • Clients have great trips but book elsewhere next time
  • Pre-departure prep varies too much between consultants

Nine steps · where money leaks out

Every booking moves through nine steps. Each step is a place where money can leak.

We check your agency against all nine steps. In most growing travel agencies, the losses are not all in one place. They are spread across several steps — each one losing a little. Together, they add up to a big number every month.

01

Enquiry

New booking requests come in by phone, email, and message. Without a clear process, some leads get followed up late — or not at all.

02

Quote

A trip quote is put together and sent to the client. How quickly and how well it is presented often decides whether you win the booking.

03

Follow-up

Quotes with no second contact are far less likely to convert. In busy agencies, following up on time is usually done by hand and easy to forget.

04

Booking confirmed

The client pays a deposit and the booking is locked in. Clear confirmation and next-step communication sets the tone for everything that follows.

05

Supplier bookings

Hotels, flights, and transfers are booked with suppliers. Without central tracking, confirmations can sit in individual inboxes and get missed.

06

Pre-departure

Final payments, travel documents, visa checks, and client briefings need to happen consistently. Gaps here are visible to clients and damage trust.

07

Trip running

The client is travelling. Support needs to be available and responses fast. How this is handled shapes whether the client comes back.

08

Client returns

The client is home. This is the best time to follow up — satisfaction is high and the next trip is already forming in their mind. Most agencies miss this window.

09

Rebooking and referrals

Systematic follow-up for the next trip, a review, or a referral rarely happens by default. The next booking is often left to chance rather than process.

The scorecard walks you through the steps where most travel agencies lose money. It takes under 3 minutes and shows you your results right away.

How it works · 21 days

Map the leaks. Work out what they cost. Build a plan to fix them.

Start with the free scorecard. It shows which steps of your booking process cost you the most. If the result shows a real problem worth fixing, we run a 21-day diagnostic alongside you. We map the process, work out the money impact, and give you a clear plan. No long commitment before then.

How the diagnostic works

  • W1Map the processWe look closely at your agency in the first week. We map every step of every booking — where enquiries come in, how quotes are handled, how follow-up works, and where clients and commissions slip through.
  • W2Find the leaks and size them upWe find which steps cause the most losses and work out the money impact. You get a clear view of what is leaking, at which step, and roughly what it costs you each month.
  • W3Recommend and planWe give you a list of fixes in order of importance, a 30/60/90-day plan, and a clear view of whether working with us longer makes sense for your agency.

What you get · seven things

At the end of 21 days, you have a clear picture of your agency.

You get seven clear outputs. Not a slide deck full of vague ideas. A specific, ordered view of where your agency is losing money and exactly what to do about it — in the order that makes the most financial sense.

01

Diagnostic summary

A plain view of your agency as we found it. What is working, what is under pressure, and where the main money leaks are.

02

Booking process map

A map of your nine-step booking flow. We mark where ownership is clear, where it is not, and where bookings, commissions, and clients slip away.

03

Leak points

A clear list of where money leaks at each step of the process, what causes it, and what problems it leads to further down the line.

04

Money impact estimate

An honest estimate of what the leaks cost you — based on your team size, booking volume, and where the most friction is.

05

Priority fixes

The three to five changes that will recover the most money for the least effort. In order of importance.

06

30/60/90-day plan

A step-by-step plan showing what to fix in the first month, what comes next, and what your agency should look like at 90 days.

07

Next step recommendation

A clear, honest view of whether working with Instaris longer makes financial sense — and if so, what that would cost and involve.

The diagnostic starts with the free scorecard. Run it in under 3 minutes to see where you are losing money before you commit to anything.

How we work · process first

We do not sell software. We work through the process with you.

Most travel agency owners who feel revenue pressure do not need more booking tools to log into. They need someone to map what is actually happening — how bookings move, where they stall, and what that costs. We work alongside your team. We are not a product you buy and figure out yourself.

01

We look first. Then we recommend.

The first week is all observation. We do not arrive with a ready-made answer. We find out what is actually happening in your agency before we say what to fix.

02

We work with whatever tools you already use.

You do not need to buy new software to work with us. Our fixes work inside the systems your team already uses.

03

No long-term contract before the diagnostic.

The 21-day diagnostic stands on its own. At the end, you have a clear picture and a plan. Whether to continue working with Instaris is a separate choice you make later.

Built by people who know how to run hard operations
Cabinet Office
Home Office

Instaris was built by operators and engineers. Our team worked on large, complex programmes at Meta, Google, Cabinet Office, and the Home Office. We bring that same discipline to travel agencies. When bookings, commissions, and clients slip through the gaps in your process, you lose money. We know how to find that and fix it.

Meta · High-volume coordination

Systems that keep running when the workload gets high.

Booking volume gets hard to manage fast as you grow. We design processes so that quotes, follow-ups, and client needs do not get lost in shared inboxes or one consultant's memory.

Google · Tools for real teams

Systems that work in the office, on a call, and with clients.

Your process has to work for consultants, coordinators, and owners without adding more admin work. A system people actually use matters more than one with the most features.

Cabinet Office · Contract discipline

Deadlines, payments, and records treated as live rules — not paperwork.

In high-stakes environments, supplier deadlines, commission windows, and client documents need to be tracked as active priorities — not found at the end of the month.

Home Office · Sensitive operations

Client records, data, and permissions handled with care.

Passport details, booking records, and client preferences need clear rules, reliable storage, and a clean audit trail.
