Ensemble Celebrates 3rd Consecutive Year of Member Profit Sharing

Ensemble Celebrates 3rd Consecutive Year of Member Profit Sharing

Ensemble has added several new Canadian members.

Calling it a powerful milestone in the organization’s evolution, Ensemble has announced its third consecutive year of profit sharing.

“When Ensemble was acquired, (three years ago) we knew that a fair and transparent profit-sharing model would be essential to building trust with our members and was a distinguishing factor for us,” said Ensemble President Michael Johnson.  

“That’s why we’ve taken deliberate steps to ensure every member understands where they can earn, what programs drive profitability, and how to take advantage of them. Our monthly Town Halls have become a key forum where we highlight partners who are deeply invested in our network and who consistently deliver meaningful earning potential for our members.” 

Ensemble Travel Group leaders Kristina Boyce and Michael Johnson.

Johnson says that the profit sharing initiative reaffirms its unwavering commitment to putting member success at the centre of everything it does. Since its acquisition by Navigatr Group, Ensemble’s new leadership has made major changes throughout the organization, with the goal of creating “a fully modern, forward-thinking consortium with revitalized programs across every discipline.”  

Johnson added: “This year’s payouts also reflect the direct impact of our focus on improving margins and additional revenue opportunities for members. We’ve seen consistent growth from agencies that are fully leveraging our portfolio of best-in-class solutions across all disciplines: technology, marketing, exclusive partner programs across all verticals, training and development.”

For Ross Spalding, President of Crown Cruise Vacations, this latest distribution is more than just a payout; it’s a reflection of a shared vision. 

“Ensemble has played a key role in the growth of Crown Cruise Vacations,” Spalding said. “The profit-sharing model has been especially impactful by providing meaningful returns that have allowed us to reinvest directly into the business.  It’s a clear example of how Ensemble delivers real value as a partner in results and not just words.” 

Central to Ensemble’s strategy is the use of its proprietary booking platform, ADX, which its says continues to deliver above-average margins across a wide portfolio of preferred partners. 

In addition, Ensemble has expanded its support for air bookings by providing two pathways for advisors: direct booking through ADX or referral through the Ensemble Air Concierge program. 

The concierge service allows advisors to hand off air bookings to Ensemble’s in-house team, who manage the process and return completed itineraries to the advisor offering a simplified approach to earning best-in-industry commissions on air without any risk or additional workload.
