Global tour operator Collette kicked off a four-city North American tour at Toronto’s Hotel X this week, celebrating the work of its agent partners during Travel Advisor Appreciation Month.

Led by Kelsie Marchetti, Collette’s Virtual Events and Training Manager and the face of the Collette’s Travel Advisor Network on Facebook, the tour will continue on to Dallas, Tampa and Atlanta. Each event will feature meet-and-greet sessions, networking, giveaways and more. 

Known for her passion in supporting the travel advisor community, Marchetti, along with other members of the Collette team, will celebrate the work of advisors, hear their stories and take a moment to relax and celebrate alongside them.  

Kelsie Marchetti is the face of Collette’s Travel Advisor Network on Facebook.

“Having the opportunity to meet in person with travel advisors that we have connected with over these last few months means so much to the team.” said Marchetti. “The community that we have built within the Travel Advisor Network is a supportive resource that helps others sell confidently and ask for advice in real time.” 

The Travel Advisor Network is a private Collette Facebook group exclusively for traveller advisors. It’s a place where advisors and Collette team members share insights and tips and host regular events to help advisors sell with confidence. 

Check out Collette’s Travel Advisor Portal and Travel Advisor Network throughout the month as they continue to celebrate advisors.
