Signature Travel Network has announced a new initiative to support independent contractors through a membership subsidy program with the American Society of Travel Advisors (ASTA).
The new program reduces ASTA membership rates for Signature Travel Network’s independent contractors to just $99 annually, representing a substantial savings of $148 compared to standard rates. This initiative makes ASTA membership more accessible for travel entrepreneurs within the Signature network.
“At Signature, we’ve always believed in the power of community and the importance of supporting the professionals who make this industry what it is,” said Alex Sharpe, president & CEO of Signature Travel Network. “By joining ASTA, our independent contractors aren’t just investing in their own business, they’re helping protect and shape the future of our entire industry. This subsidized membership rate is our way of removing barriers and encouraging every Signature member to stand with ASTA in supporting the travel advisor community we all value so deeply.”
This strategic investment by Signature opens doors for independent contractors to access ASTA’s full spectrum of professional advantages, from targeted educational resources and certification programs to consumer leads through VeriVacation.com.
ASTA membership provides independent contractors with crucial advantages in today’s competitive market, including industry credibility, networking opportunities, business resources, and professional development pathways such as the Verified Travel Advisor certification. As 100 percent of Signature Travel Network agency members are already part of ASTA. This initiative aims to extend those benefits throughout their independent contractor networks.
Independent contractors affiliated with Signature Travel Network can take advantage of this exclusive offer when joining or renewing their ASTA membership for 2025.
