Travel Consultants looking to grow their business with handy sales and marketing tools need look no further than Tammy Levent’s new monthly membership program, TASK 24K.
Levent is CEO of Elite Travel and founder of several other TASK educational brands that TASK 24K is expanding.

“The TASK 24K launch was developed with the mission of helping travel agents become more successful in their business,” said Levent. “I wanted to create an affordable program that would provide real tools, resources, and training to help them market and grow their business.
“After 30 years of experience in the travel industry, I knew that success depends on access to timely, relevant content that agents can understand and apply.”
She added: “TASK 24K is a natural progression of the TASK program. The role of a travel agent is critical in this post-pandemic world and TASK 24K will meet the needs of travel agents no matter how dramatically the industry continues to change.”
TASK 24K also includes speakers participating in the program’s podcast and webinar series — including those consultants don’t typically have access to, like Shark Tank’s Kevin Harrington, who will be featured in May.
Consultants who join TASK 24K also participate in quarterly four-day all-inclusive resort giveaways. “The winner can then promote that trip as a giveaway with the help of the TASK team, who will show them how to market it and use it to generate leads,” Levent said.
Participating resorts for 2023 are Dreams Royal Beach in Punta Cana, Breathless Sol in Cancun, Secrets Cap Cana in the Dominican Republic and Dreams Karibana Cartagena Golf and Spa Resort in Colombia, Inclusive Collection, part of World of Hyatt,
In addition, the TASK 24K program offers exclusive discounts and/or commissions from a number of companies including ARYYVE Vacations. “Advisors would typically have to meet a booking quota to earn higher commissions,” Levent said. “With our TASK 24K program, they can participate and earn exclusive higher commissions.”
“Just one booking in a year is more than worth it for TASK 24K,” she added.
The cost is $24.95 per month or $280 for 12 months.
The TASK Kit alone, worth more than the cost of a membership, provides over 20 hours of state-of-the-art training, Levent said.
The program also offers membership discounts for organizations such as ASTA, Travefy and Travel Industry Solution.
In the meantime, providers and travel consultants provide the program with sound recommendations.
“Today’s travelers are looking to more from industry professionals to meet the new expectations typical of travel,” said Randy Alleyn, CEO of Travel Brands at ARYYVE Inc.
“Education, including continuous skill building, is more relevant than ever in our industry.
“We are excited to partner with Tammy Levent’s TASK 24K initiative to expand this much-needed solution.”
“Tammy is a consummate professional who thinks and does,” said Carlos Gonzalez, Business Development Manager Southeast for the Inclusive Collection, part of World of Hyatt.
“Now TASK has become an institution that helps consultants to grow and develop and learn to do their job better.
“It’s a starting point and something to build on to become more professional, more effective and grow the business and become successful. We are partners and will continue to support this new venture.”
“I attended my first (of many) TASK class in 2014 after hearing Tammy speak at a conference,” said Robert Riesmeyer, founder and experience curator of Travel Unrivaled and co-founder of Traveling Aware.
“I was in the business for about five years at the time and was quite successful. TASK changed that very successfully.
“Tammy transformed my perspective on the travel industry from an order taker and ticket booker to thinking outside the norm, growing my business the way I love, and a designer of unique, one-of-a-kind travel experiences.”
