Travel Booking Desk: Every enquiry followed up. Every trip leaves ready.

Every enquiry from the first message to the trip on one screen. The quote goes out on WhatsApp and the follow-up date sets itself. You see what money is due and whose papers are not ready, days before the trip.

How it runs today

  • An enquiry comes on Instagram or WhatsApp, a quote goes out, and the follow-up depends on who remembers.
  • The same client gets three versions of a quote, and nobody is sure which one was the last.
  • A consultant goes on leave, and the enquiries go with the phone.
  • The balance is still not paid three days before the flight, and you find out when the tickets are to be issued.
  • A passport copy or a visa is missing, and it is noticed in the last week.

What is inside

Every part, spelled out

📥

Enquiry board

Every enquiry from the first message to the trip: new, quote sent, follow-up, booked, travelled. A missed follow-up turns red.

🧾

Quote versions

The amount and the version of each quote stay with the enquiry, so everyone knows which one the client last saw.

📞

Follow-up list

Each consultant starts the day with the follow-ups due today and what was said last time.

💰

Advance and balance

Payments listed by due date, with the departure beside them. One tap sends a polite reminder on WhatsApp.

🛂

Traveller documents

Passports or IDs, visa, tickets, vouchers and insurance ticked for each booked trip. A trip leaving soon with papers missing shows in red.

📊

Weekly report

One message to the owner: enquiries, quotes, bookings, money received and who is leaving next.

Who it is for

How enquiries are handled today

A travel enquiry needs many touches before it becomes a booking: a first quote, two or three revisions and several follow-up calls. In most agencies all of this lives in each consultant's WhatsApp. Whether a client is called back on the right day depends on one person's memory.

After the booking there is a second list to carry in the head: who has paid the advance, whose balance is due before the tickets go out, whose passport copy has not come and whose visa is still in process.

What changes with the desk

  • Every enquiry is on one board, with the consultant who handles it.
  • Sending a quote sets the follow-up date. A missed follow-up turns red.
  • Each talk is logged in one line, so anyone can pick up the enquiry.
  • Each revised quote gets a version, with its amount.
  • The advance and the balance are listed by due date, next to the departure.
  • Traveller documents are ticked trip by trip. A trip that leaves soon with papers missing shows in red.

What it does not do

It is not a booking engine. It does not issue tickets, hold inventory or show live fares. It also does not build day-by-day itineraries: your consultants write the plan, and the system sends it and follows it up. Billing and accounts stay in Tally or the software you use now.

What we need from you

  • Your open enquiries and booked trips, as a sheet or a register
  • The quote format you send today
  • The names of your consultants
  • Your usual terms for advance and balance
  • An hour for the demo and an hour for training

Questions

Before you ask

Does it book flights and hotels?+

No. It is not a booking engine and it does not issue tickets. You book with your suppliers and portals as you do today. This follows the enquiry, the quote, the payments and the documents around the booking.

Can it make the itinerary for us?+

No. It does not build day-by-day itineraries. Your consultant writes the plan, or pastes it from your own format, and it goes out with the quote. The quote amount and its versions are kept with the enquiry.

Enquiries come on Instagram, WhatsApp and calls. Do they come in by themselves?+

An enquiry takes under a minute to note from a phone. Pulling enquiries in from a website form or an ad is an add-on with its own quote. For a first reply that goes out by itself, see the WhatsApp Enquiry Assistant.

We handle groups and office trips. Does it fit?+

Yes. A group is one enquiry with its number of travellers, and the document checklist is ticked for the group. A separate list for each traveller is extra work and gets its own quote.

How long does it take to start?+

About two weeks for one process, including loading your current data and training your staff. You first see a demo on your own data, before you pay anything.

What does WhatsApp cost?+

Messages that go out by themselves use a WhatsApp Business tool that you pay for directly, about ₹500 to ₹2,800 a month plus a small charge per message. We set it up on your own number. Tap-to-send messages from your phone cost nothing extra.

Is it charged per user?+

No. The setup has one fixed price and the monthly plan is flat. Add as many staff as you have.

Where is our data kept?+

Your quote explains the two options: on a server we run for you, or on your own server. Either way the data is yours and you can export it at any time.
