“I was with another travel company, but I reached a point in my business where I just couldn’t keep up with everything. Cruise Planners’ proven systems, word-class marketing and revolutionary technology helped me take my sales to a level I never thought possible. I am far more successful with Cruise Planners than I could have ever been with my previous host.”
Randy Hobday
“When I was getting ready to retire, I had no idea what I was going to do next. I started Cruise Planners part time, but I loved it so much and was doing so well that I made it my fulltime job and even recruited my daughter to help me. I love that I get to travel and run a successful business with my daughter.”
