Millette-Keller & Associates Inc. is a highly specialized company providing complex international travel and event management services to a global clientele. The company is owned and operated by Ron Millette and Erika Keller, who both have decades of direct industry experience

The company focus is on maintaining and continuously developing & growing our own business and at the same time creating opportunities through our Associate Program for independent travel and meeting professionals who have significant personal business in the International Business Travel and Conference Services Industry.

Owning your own business brings many benefits and personal freedoms, however it also requires a lot of discipline. You have to be motivated, client service oriented and able to work on your own in a home environment and at times within a team environment. You have to own, as a minimum, an up-to-date computer, printer, telephone and have fax and e-mail capability.

We are looking for mature individuals who can also provide exchange services to our clients, if and as required. Different language capabilities are a definite asset for the ideal Associate, as well as ability to travel at times and provide on-site project support.

Often, an individual has a book of business, either in travel or meeting planning, but it is a difficult & daunting task to start a business alone. Purchasing a turn-key franchise is generally much too costly. Buying into an on-line system does not provide the back-up or business support, required by most successful agents or meeting planners.

Millette-Keller & Associates have created a program whereby you can work on your own, retain an important part of your earned commissions and fees and have a complete business infrastructure behind you.

The following are some of the services Millette-Keller & Associates provide:

• Government Licensing
• Full GDS access
• Airline Ticketing and access to commissions as applicable through established IATA agency
• Access to our experienced Staff & other Associates for larger projects
• Backup support as required
• Vacation relief
• Administrative Services
• Line of credit for accounts receivables
• Assistance with proposal writing and sales presentations
• State of the Art Conference Software
• Membership in Professional Associations
• Merchant accounts for on-line credit card transactions
• Company website with personal Associate sub page
• Assistance with set-up/incorporation of small business

If you are confident of your own abilities and fully understand the benefits and requirements of owning your own business, we would like to hear from you.

Besides a standard resume, please write us a short synopsis that describes your strength and weaknesses, why you would like to start your own business, what your goals and ambitions are for the next 5 years and beyond, what type of business mix you have, how much revenue you think you can generate etc.

If we feel that you could be a good addition to our Associate Team, we will arrange for an interview to discuss our program in more detail.
