Intrepid Travel’s Post

When tourism dominates your local economy - how do you create opportunities for good paying jobs and entrepreneurship in new local businesses? Let's talk about it.

Fellow tourism entrepreneurs/businesses: As you head into your 2024 planning, do you need some clarity on potential revenue-generating partnerships for your business and how exactly to pursue them? I have opened up 3 spots for 1-on-1 mini-partnerships sessions this month, bringing my 10 years of experience and track record of client success, to YOU in a punchy, 60-minute session. I am booking now until the end of November. The cost of these sessions is $350 USD, with a guaranteed return on investment.* These sessions are best for DMCs, hotels, tour operators, and tech companies. Here's what one of my amazing woman-owned biz clients had to say about our recent session: "After my mini partnership session with Iris, I feel ready to take action and much more assured. Iris really helped break down my ‘stucks’, and outline super simple next steps. One of the partnerships avenues we discussed was an area I hadn’t seen a clear value add I could offer, but Iris gave me a fresh perspective, and in turn a lot of confidence in approaching these potential opportunities, plus guidance on where to find them! It literally opened up a huge well of potential clients, and showed me where I could be a dream partner for them! The conversation accomplished a lot more than I expected. I tend to overcomplicate things, but Iris brought some much clarity by simplifying things for me, which made taking action seem like the next logical step – this is a huge shift where I began when we started the call." *Guaranteed ROI if next steps outlined during session are actioned DM me to book your session! ✨

I have crossed the Atlantic Ocean twice. 🛳️ Not many people can say that, and even less can say they did it with a couple of hundred other entrepreneurs and digital nomads. Aside from the journey and countries I visited on the way, I met people from 35 countries, attended lots of talks and workshops and had great masterminds & meet-ups. If you get a chance to go on the Nomad Cruise, I really recommend it. You might even meet me there! #nomadcruise #workfromanywhere #alwayslearning #travel #conferences #cruising

"Travel isn't just about ticking off destinations; it's a strategic exploration, a dance with diversity, and a pledge to give back. Italy, with its enchanting streets and pasta-perfect meals, taught me to slow down, savor life, and embrace the power of connections. Inspired and driven, I'm on a mission to spread inspiration, learn from every encounter, and leave a lasting impact wherever I go. Through my journey, I've realized that the essence of entrepreneurship lies not only in building businesses but also in fostering relationships and making a positive difference in the lives of others. Whether it's collaborating with local artisans to promote their crafts or supporting sustainable tourism initiatives, I believe in the transformative power of entrepreneurship to drive social change and create a more inclusive world. Let's embark on this adventure together, where every step we take is not just a move forward but also a meaningful contribution to the communities we touch. 🌍💼✨ #EntrepreneurialSpirit #GlobalImpact #StrategicExploration"

Tourism Industry Association of Canada’s inaugural Tourism Investor Forum kicked off in Mississauga today, bringing together tourism capital seekers and capital providers. In the opening Fireside Chat, entrepreneur and investor Stuart MacDonald said he asks the following questions when meeting with potential business investments: ▶ Are you profitable? ▶ Are consumers going to care? ▶ Are you sustainable? ▶ Can you differentiate yourself? One company that ticked all the boxes for MacDonald was Sherpa°. Co-founder Max Tremaine sat across from MacDonald and the two discussed the two-way street of choosing the right investors and investments. "How do you decide who you’re going to work with?” asked Tremaine. “It’s easy to think of investors as money, but they really are a part of your team … we selected people who had actual care and were earnest about what we were doing.” #investorsforum2024 #tourism
