Affiliate Marketing Secrets

Hi
I have recently set up a travel website which went live a few weeks back! www.time4takeoff.com
Since it went live i haven’t had a sale. I am currently using an affiliate company for selling the tickets as i don’t have the ATOL or IATA license.
As this is something i would love to do selling holidays to clients as i love traveling and sharing my experiences with others. Although i have done some traveling i don’t have any experience in sales so what is the best way to setting up a business as an independent travel agent and studying for the IATA and ATOL license? Do i really need these licenses to do this?
And if so what benefits will these licenses give me compared to just using an affiliate company ? I understand that airline companies give there seat prices to the travel agencies but how do you make money being a travel agent?
Many Thanks

Hey guys,
I sent my query letter off last night and today I got a reply from the agent saying that my book isn’t really her type.
But! I’m wondering if it has anything to do with my query? A friend of mine showed me how to write one but i got refused by two agents, hmmm…..
I’m going to paste the first chapter of my query and if you guys could give me an honest opinion and some suggestions, that would make my day! This is my first time and I really need some help :/
Dear Mrs ??????,
May I please send you my novel, The Freak in Me, for your consideration? It’s approximately 55,814 words and it’s an occurring story, telling the story of a seventeen year old girl who believed she was kidnapped but thanks to her trauma her mind had blocked everything. One day a striking young man walks into her life and she quickly falls in love but little does she know, her life is going to get a lot worse and later discovers a hidden dark secret she never knew she had. This novel has a mixture of thriller/drama/comedy and it’s aimed it at the young adult market.
Thank you so much for your time! 🙂

So i am 22 years old and just getting started in the acting industry. I have an agent. She had me come do a cold read for her, when I took my brother in to audition. She pulled me aside and asked if I ever thought about acting. I said not really because it doesn’t look like somewhere I would belong. She told me I need to look into it, and that I have a natural look, and natural energy.. so I went in a room and did a cold read for her. She asked me right after if she could sign me with her agency. I thought about it over night, and decided that a long time ago as a child it was a dream of mine. I thew it away after realizing that in this industry it seems so many people are slutty, crazy, or extremely narcassistic.
I told her this the next day where she said we need more healthy role models in society for examples, and as a refresher. As i agreed with her I signed, and have been training/working on different projects.
The question I have is…
Do those of you with experience, or just by your belief in general feel that I could be successful. I am a virgin, conservative ( not a prude),I am mormon but I am loving and accepting of all religions and people affiliated with them.
I won’t do rated R movies or sex scenes. Basically, my options will be limited for sure. Just wondering what your guys thoughts are on who I am as a person, and the industry. \
Do you guys think I would have individuals want to work with me/ follow my work in different show, ect..?
And one last thing. Do you guys feel holly wood needs more clean people? I”m for sure not Kim K, or anything like it. Not that she is a bad person, but I have different beliefs.
Any help/advice would help. Thank you sooooo much!!

We live in a nice house and my dad was in the military a long time ago but stopped before I was born. I know he used to sell houses but since the market crash he can’t do that anymore.now he leaves the house at mysterious times, (even really really late at night sometimes) and I have no clue what his job is. I’ve asked my mom but she always gives me some bs and I can tell she’s lying. So could it be that my dad has some secret job we don’t know about?

Its alleged that American rightwing agents frequenting Davao City, have been associated with Abu Sayyaf (well they created the A.S) and that Philippine intelligence has always known this. Anyone have feedback?

I’ve gotten 3 estimates & narrowed it down to 2. I’ll be using a local agent affiliated with either North American or United van lines for a move from Delaware to Wisconsin. Which should I choose? Do both use owner-operators or do they own their trucks and drivers/movers work full-time for them?
