Top Factors To Consider When Choosing A Corporate Travel Agent

In a world where time is money, and money makes the world go round, choosing an efficient and comprehensive Corporate Travel Manager has never been more important.

While businesses are whole-heartedly embracing corporate travel once more, owners are also thinking savvier than ever, looking to get more bang for their buck from not only the business trip, but also the people booking the trip.

With 2024 around the corner and many businesses looking to evaluate their finances and partnerships in the New Year, here are our top factors to consider when choosing a corporate travel agent.

Customised Corporate Travel Solutions

No two businesses are the same, and when it comes to business travel this mantra rings true.

While one business may value consistency and transparency another may value cost-effectiveness. Furthermore, the needs and requirements of certain travelling staff members may differ depending on their travel history, personal information or status within the company, and it’s up to your Corporate Travel Manager to recognise these needs and customise travel solutions to meet them.

At Pulse Travel, our dedicated Corporate Travel team has over 30 years of experience in managing these intricacies. From the moment you partner with Pulse Travel, the team will work with you to understand your needs, build out your travel plan and be constantly in touch to make any changes to your travel plan that may be required.

A Variety of Corporate Travel Services

Corporate Travel Agents are typically employed to end-to-end manage the travel needs of any employee that’s travelling on behalf of a business – So it’s important that your Travel Manager can book anything and everything you throw at them.

At Pulse Travel, we pride ourselves on offering a wide variety of Corporate Travel services to ensure we can manage whatever our Corporate partners need.

Need support in booking one-off flights and accommodation for a short business trip? Our staff can manage it.

Need someone to manage the travel needs of Fi-Fo workers and ensure they get to and from work on time, every time? Look no further than the team at Pulse.

Planning a major corporate event and want someone who can help you book flights, accommodation and car hire for your entire business, plus provide recommendations on Event Venues and local restaurants? Our Corporate Team has extensive experience in complex Group Travel bookings and are able to help.

In addition to just providing Travel Management services, the Pulse Travel team can also support businesses in filling out Visa applications for relevant countries, provide up-to-date travel advice to keep staff safe and help update your Travel Policy so everyone is aware of your business’s rules and regulations.

Cost-Effective and Time-Saving Travel Management

In the world of business, time is money, and businesses have never been more conscious about their back pocket than now.

It’s no secret that travelling for business can be an expensive and time-consuming activity for both the traveller and the business, and many business owners are conscious of ensuring they’re not only getting the most bang for their buck out of any meetings their staff attend, but also out of the Corporate Travel Manager they employ.

At Pulse Travel, our Corporate Travel team provides a few options to help ensure we’re meeting KPI’s in both cost and amount of time saved:

• Dedicated account management to ensure in-depth knowledge of the intricacies of your account.
• Emergency 24/7 Assistance, ensuring you never have to pay extra for replacement flights, accommodation or car hire.
• Regular reporting through our dashboard of your spend and travel platforms, alongside recommendations on where you can cut costs and save money.
• Individualised travel policies in line with your business objectives

Pulse Travel is also proud to be a part of CTPartners, allowing businesses to gain access to exclusive travel deals and discounts so that you can be certain you’re getting the best deal possible.
