Holland, PA (October 2, 2007) – TripGuy Travel has recently been crowned a Platinum Sandals Agency, the highest level of Sandal’s program designed to cultivate and increase sales for both the agency and for Sandals Resorts. TripGuy Travel now joins a select and elite group of travel agencies recognized by Sandals and Beaches Resorts as experts in the Caribbean’s leading chain of luxury ultra all-inclusive resorts.

To qualify as a Platinum Sandals Agency, TripGuy met a significant threshold of business done with Sandals and Beaches, in addition to an education requirement on the Sandals and Beaches products. Being a Platinum Agency offers TripGuy meaningful benefits including business tools such as co-branded collateral, websites, and advertising support.

"I am extremely proud of the TripGuy team for this major accomplishment," said Kevin McCullough, Philadelphia-Area Sales Manager for Sandals. "Vacations are memories in the making and the agents at TripGuy take their responsibility to our mutual clients very seriously. Customers want to be confident that the information they receive is based on expert knowledge and having the Platinum Agency designation proves just that."

According to Mike Norton, senior vice president of sales for Sandals and Beaches Resorts, training and highlighting the best representatives of the brands is a key strategy for the Caribbean-based resort chain. "At Sandals, our goal is to exceed client expectations every time," said Chomat. "And an agency like TripGuy Travel is an essential part of this effort. They know the intimate details of each resort and are able to match customers to the perfect Sandals or Beaches vacation. We congratulate the staff of TripGuy Travel on the hard work that brought them to the forefront of the industry.
