What I need help with

My background as an entrepreneur

My current challenges

I am facing great challenges in putting the pieces all together. I know what I want to achieve but I really need the help of mentorship in getting started and making it happen. This have dragged enough and hence the reason I am on here today.

About my venture

Tropical Bookings is a Vacation Management Company. We market and sell properties for short term rental.

This business is important to me because of my passion in hospitality and my dream to develop such a company. As research has shown that by 2020, online travel agents will thrive since persons are no longer walking into offices but looking online for most assistance.

Tropical Bookings will offer accommodation, transport and tour packages custom made to suit the client's budget and needs.

Countries of operation: Saint Lucia
