DEAR TRAVEL AGENT: Branson, Missouri caters to Travel Agents – and the proof is in this guide. At a time when some suppliers are reducing or even eliminating travel agent commissions, Branson continues each year to provide ever more entertainment options that offer travel agents full commissions, not only on lodging, but on shows and attractions, as well.

Earn higher commissions! Branson visitors see an average of four shows or other ticketed attractions per trip; in fact, the amount spent per trip on Branson entertainment is at times greater than for accommodations. You can earn extra commissions on these entertainment dollars by booking complete Branson vacations that are fully commissioned on lodging, attractions and shows!

Save time and offer better customer service! Call one of the businesses listed in this guide to plan your clients, totally customized and fully-commissioned Branson vacation package and let them take care of the details. These businesses know Branson well and can also provide additional guest services for your clients when they are in Branson.

Our Travel Agent Commission Guide offers you two choices for booking your clients’ Branson vacation: Accommodation Travel Packagers and Destination Travel Packagers;

both offer commissions on lodging and most offer full commissions on a customized Branson vacation package that includes show and attraction tickets. Either way, booking Branson has never been easier and more profitable for you and your company.

Picking the perfect vacation destination for your clients is important too with dozens of theaters offering more than 100 shows celebrating entertainment at its best.

Branson’s live shows have it all! A new aquarium and handson interactive attractions top the list of new things to do. Your clients can enjoy our pristine lakes, perfect for lunch and dinner cruises, as well as scenic countryside for championship golf and ATV riding. Branson is also home to more than 200 outlet stores; Branson Landing’s dazzling array of specialty stores, boutiques and galleries and an Historic Downtown shopping district filled with quaint shops, cafes, and flea markets Branson is also famous for our warm hospitality and safe environment. It’s a place where age is honored, youth is celebrated, and service to God and country is revered. We are centrally located in the heart of America, and less than a day’s drive from one-third of the nation’s population. A perfect vacation is waiting for your client in Branson, Mo.
