Cruise Planners is a travel franchise brand that offers individuals with a passion for travel an incredible career opportunity. Without the stress of a brick-and-mortar location, franchisees can truly work from anywhere. Spain? Sure! Morocco? You bet! Florida? Of course.
You get it.
Not only does Cruise Planners offer a career with tremendous flexibility, but their training for franchisees is top-notch. This is why FBR sat down with Cruise Planners franchisee Phyllis Bixler and Chief Operations Officer Theresa Scalzitti. We wanted to get to the bottom of how this brand sets up its franchise owners for success. From a six-day in-person training at their headquarters in Florida to assigning each franchisee a coach, entrepreneurs find Cruise Planners to be wholly invested in their achievements.

One of the reasons Cruise Planners is such an attractive opportunity for aspiring entrepreneurs is the training. Just like Phyllis, Cruise Planners franchisee of 2 years, in the above video, you don’t need any experience. Just a love of travel and a willingness to talk to people about it. Cruise Planners and their training for franchisees takes care of the rest.
