Found this extremely detailed post on becoming a travel agent with Pro Travel Network.
Brent (aka Terry) brings up some invaluable points in regards to getting setup as home-based travel agent. I like the part in particular where he gives you a link from his site to your Pro Travel Network site.
Many people have the desire to work from home or to be their own boss. For those people that have a love of travel and foreign countries, starting their own home based travel business may be the ideal career change.
When you work within the travel industry, you will get to learn about many different places and help others visit the destinations of their dreams. The increase in people starting their own home based travel business may be directly due to the increase in people’s ability and need to travel.
Today, more and more people travel for business and pleasure. All kinds of travel are much more accessible to the average person these days; therefore the need for independent travel agents has also increased.
Furthermore, many businesses now outsource staff or have offices all over the world, which requires a significant amount of travel.
Starting a home based travel business can be an arduous task, but in the long run very fulfilling. Starting a home business of any kind takes a great deal of motivation, time, effort, and start up money.
Although the business may not be as profitable as you would hope immediately, it will grow and expand over a period of time.
Once you have started your home based travel business, it is a great idea to choose a specialty. While it is perfectly fine to offer all variations of travel, both domestic and abroad, it may be in your best interest to specialize.
You can travel the world! If you a look at some of the sites referred to in this post, you’ll learn how to become a travel agent from your own home – you don’t need to spend a bundle anymore.
Would you like to eat in quiet little restaurants along the river Thames, or walk down historic streets in Paris? Does travel to destinations like Hong Kong, Hawaii, London, Rome and Spain sound great to you? If that is a dream you have, becoming a travel agent is a super career choice for you.
Becoming a travel agent doesn't have to be expensive and time consuming. Thanks to Pro Travel Network, you can quickly become a travel agent from the privacy of your own home.

Found this post about the launch of the Pro Travel Network blog and forum. Thought you might want to know about this two-man team.
Well there is a Pro Travel Network Forum, and Pro Travel Network blog launching. Brent Truitt, and Anil Anil Ramcharitar are heading up the domain, @ www.ptnfreedom.com.
I’ve personally joined the Pro Travel Network ranks, and will be taking part in their online community. I’ve never been much for MLM businesses, but this is a good gig. Nothing like Amway! Look into it and you’ll see what I mean.
I recommend new-comers actually go to the PTN blog and use the phone number (Anil’s). Give him a call, and he’ll explain the whole PTN business –how it works, how you get paid, and how to join Pro Travel Network through him.
If you are smart, which I assume you are, cause you are reading my blog, you’ll join Anil and Brent, cause their team is going to make allot of money.
I signed up with these guys yesterday…

Ever since I joined Pro Travel Network I’ve been pumped about the business model. I’ve been working on creating a team, and it’s been a fun process.
Thanks to Paul Henderson’s help, and Anil Ramcharitar’s help (Canadian Pro Travel Network launcher), I’ve gotten off to an early start.
The very fact that this business model includes an MLM side, as well as provides me with the ability to make commission for the trips I book for friends and family….well enough said.
Here is a little blurb from the PTN site. This blurb is on all Pro Travel Network agent’s web sites.
I’ve also included in this post the Youtube video on Pro Travel Network (PTN)
