"LIsa": if you know what's good for you I wouldn't come to this site announcing yourself as a travel agent. You'll be crucified.
First off, it's against Fodor's policy to advertise here...which you just did.
Secondly, the whole purpose of this forum is to create a place for UNBIASED exchange of information among everyday travellers. Agents have an 'agenda' and taint or ruin the 'trustworthiness' of the info since they have financial biases about what they recommend. That would make you 'the weakest link....goodbye'.

Many travel agents, probably the vast majority, do a great job.
Many are only trying to make as many bucks as possible and will steer clients to hotels or destinations ONLY because they get bigger commissions...not because the client's vacation or trip would be better. That's a conflict of interest. How can the unsuspecting traveller know the difference?
Have to do your own research. That's part of what this board is about.
Travel agents make their OWN 'name'...I didn't characterize them that way because I have some vendetta against TA's.
Keep your eyes open, daisy. There are plenty of people in the world who will take advantage of you if you don't.

First of Miss Trust I wasn't tlaking about you I was talking about Lisa. I think that you are totally wrong about agents only offering what they make the most money on, you just obviously never found the right one. I feel that what Lisa is doing here is wrong. However you are just as wrong!

That was just an impostor 'Mrs. Robinson' (note that they used a space and period), daisy.
But, then again, bite me anyway.
I'm only kidding there flower girl.
I'm more than willing to accept other people's opinions and criticisms for what they are....
except for those evil travel agents! They're all just wannabe lawyers!!
