Fora

About

On today's episode, I sit down with Evan Frank, co-founder of Fora, a company that helps people start and run their own travel businesses, sort of like the travel agencies of the past, but built on top of modern technology.

In this conversation, we talk about how the business came to be, why travel advisors never really went away even after booking moved online, and what actually predicts whether a new advisor will succeed on their platform.

We also get into advisor retention, fundraising, the impact of AI, and where Evan sees Fora going from here. I learned a lot during our conversation, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
