Panvoya

Panvoya is a travel club offering members discounts on hotels, cruises, tours and concierge booking.  It's also a business opportunity for enterprising individuals with a flair for travel marketing.  What's it all about?  After a thorough investigation of Panvoya, including a behind-the-scenes look at the company itself, I arrived at a opinion …read on to find out what I discovered.

The Company

Panvoya is run by a seasoned travel industry professional who's well-versed in online advertising as well.  His name is Paul Koury and he's the CEO of Panvoya and he's got some pretty serious CEO business experience under his belt.  Having served at the executive level in retail and in the service industries, he's got the horse by the reigns as far as running a successful business.

With Mr. Koury at the helm, Panvoya leads in both is worlds: the travel industry and network marketing.

The impressive team also includes Max Westerfield, the COO.  Mr. Westerfield brings valuable consulting and startup expertise to the table and serves it up with healthy doses of experience in the telecommunications, financial services, and travel industries.

His importance is perhaps most felt within the company in the area of technology.  His technology-based solutions mean Panvoya runs like a well-oiled machine and employees are able to stay on top of their game…especially when it comes to finding travel deals and discounts.  For Panvoya's network of independent business owners, this means commission tracking and payments go out without a hitch.

The Product

Panvoya is everything you need to book great travel at discount prices, sometimes as much as 40% off rates you'll find elsewhere online.

They operate their own travel search engine, which works with over 6,500 resorts in over 100 countries.  They've worked hard at standing out by offering upscale condo and resort packages for reasonable prices.  Unlike many booking engines, they don't simply search the chain hotels and offer up the same deals every other travel search engine is spitting out.

Here are the various forms of travel deals they offer:

• Panvoya Getaways:  these are vacation packages assembled for customers only and offer date flexibility, unlike many other travel deals you'll find online.
• The Panvoya Travel Search: only Panvoya customers can use their search, which can yield results with up to 10% savings off literally tens of thousands of offers like cruises and escorted tours all over the world.
• Panvoya's Leisure Lifestyle Package: This grants customers access to a database of available timeshare and resort time slots at around 2,000 resorts around the world.  You buy in chunks of weeks starting at $399 per week.  Cost: $59 per month and $297 initial fee.
• Panvoya's Luxury Lifestyle Package: With this package, customers get access to a resort booking program that deals exclusively with luxury timeshares.  You get to be part of a home exchange which is normally only available to property owners or timeshare owners.  It's called Panvoya Resort Access, and no other company in the world offers this service.  Cost: $59 per month and $997 initial fee.   This package also comes with Panvoya's “Three Steps to Luxury” program.

The Business Opportunity

Panvoya's compensation plan offers $250 commission with a sales volume of 1000 at the Luxury Lifestyle level.  At the Leisure Lifestyle level, commission is $75 on a new sale volume of 300.

Differential bonuses start at $10 and go up to $150 depending on your rank and volume.  When one of your downlines becomes Fast Track Qualified, you get a Coded Infinity Bonus, ranging from $10 to $150 depending on rank.  Fast Track Qualified means generating 3 new Lifestyle Package sales within your first 60 days in business.

Monthly Residual Volume means you get $1 for every Lifestyle Package you sell, through 8 levels of downlines.

Matching bonuses on your Monthly Residual Volume starts at 10%, starting with a certain level of achieved rank.  At the highest rank, it's 50%.  There's also a 100% matching bonus starting at the second-lowest rank of ATP.

The Verdict

Given the right crowd, travel packages can be a hit as far as sales go.  If you've got the means and the smarts, plus the network to build residual income, the Panvoya opportunity can work.  The company is sound and the business idea is real, as is the product.  As with any legitimate business idea, it's up to you to sell it the best way you can!
