Ok,  I can’t help it, I like these guys and girls.

If there is anyone in Travel Affiliate Programs that has their marketing down, its this team.

I know because they kick my butt occasionally.  They get some insane pricing

But they have an ace up their sleeve.   CheapCaribbean is aligned (not sure how deeply aligned) with the tour operator, Inter-Island Tours.   Inter-Island has been around for a while and as a everyone in travel knows, tour operators buy their product from 20%  – 35% off resort rates and sell through travel agents, paying them between 10% (if you suck) to 16%+ if you can sell.

So, if your sweetie is a tour operator, you just might get some more margin to play with.  Hypothetically of course.

This is what all of us would do if had the nerve to invest in both a Tour Operator and support a call center.

But I have been there, done that.    And now I prefer to make my money from a lounge chair and a laptop in Jamaica – using really good Travel Affiliate Programs.

The Skinny:
