About

Industry-leading, family-owned

Founded in 1992, Outside Agents has grown to be one of America’s favorite host agencies, supporting over 8,000 agents nationwide. Our award-winning training platform has launched the businesses of travel agents, both new and seasoned, into unparalleled success. Along with this platform, our robust suite of business management and marketing tools and agent community makes us an unbeatable force in the travel industry. Don’t take our word for it, however. We have countless industry awards that speak for us. Just take a look below.

The success of Outside Agents reaches beyond technology. A family-owned organization, the agency recognizes the importance of personal connection. You have direct access to our owners and trained, experienced professionals with more than 100 years of combined travel experience. These mentors provide one-on-one guidance, phone, email and ticket based support, services rare in today’s automated world. We’re different than other agencies, and it shows.

“Prior to joining Outside Agents, I was with a small host agency that provided almost no support and no technology. What a complete opposite experience when I joined OA! Their support team is amazing. The people in the office are extremely quick to respond and truly want to help. And, to have access to the owners of the company as well is so unusual.”

“I can’t say enough about OA! I went from another established agency to starting my own agency from my home office. The support from all of the staff at OA has been incredible! They are there for you and want you to succeed! There is no pressure from anyone and they provide you with all of the training you could dream of! Everything is well organized and easy to find online. And to sweeten the deal…you not only get the best host team out there, but you get a whole community of colleagues to bounce ideas off, ask questions to, or generally just chat with!”

“OA is the best decision I ever made. The staff in all Departments are very dedicated and organized. They resolve any issues promptly and with top urgency. Great mentors and their travel platform is so perfect for small or large volume of sales. All the features and resources they have created for us are very user-friendly. A+++ rating.”

“Signing up with Outside Agents is one of the best business decisions I’ve made for my young travel company. As I transitioned from my former career to becoming a home-based agent, I realized how important it was/is to have the right training, education and back office support. Outside Agents not only provided these essentials but their responsiveness in resolving issues is outstanding. And when it comes to systems & technology, I just love how OA keeps it current, up-to-date and user-friendly.”

-Muriel T

“It has been two years with OA and what a great two years it has been! I do this part-time and I really enjoy it. Support, help, training…..it’s all there for the taking. I love the suppliers available and feel confident in my ability to help my clients.”

“I have been with Outside Agents for 3 years, they are outstanding! Training, assistance, response to questions, everything is top-notch!”

-Lynette G

“I have been with Outside Agents for almost 8 years. I love this agency as there is so much information available to their agents. Plus you can reach out anytime for help or just for some answers. They are very responsive. And more than that caring and very friendly to all. My experience with them as my Host Agency is 100% a positive experience. Thank you OA for everything.”

-Rhonda S

“The training, assistance and staff have been essential in the growth of my agency. I have been with Outside Agents(OA) since mid 2017 and my business is constantly growing. I was overwhelmed by the host agency options initially. OA began to stand out for multiple reasons. The staff’s investment in our success is unparalleled. The training and knowledge is available to us, all we have to do is engage and apply it! If you want a host agency that is truly invested I would highly recommend joining OA!”
