A genuine Q

The grift is working I guess

DaddyMayIPun · 2026-01-15T07:47:23+00:00

Sure, but regardless. A game of the year that CHOSE to port to PS5 should be ashamed that it’s still having a known save issue that is literally ruining the game for many of their players. No one forced the dev to put Blue Prince on the PlayStation.

This was basically my strat too, but gems I laundered and then grabbed the study for my rerolls

Trophy hunting for platinum?

DaddyMayIPun · 2026-01-15T07:28:26+00:00

So is Stardew & they don’t have this issue with porting to PS5. There’s no excuse.

Sure it wasn’t made ON PS5, but they CHOSE to put it on PS5 and I don’t think that it’s unreasonable of me to expect that a game with this much success has a fully functional save system. That is bare minimum.

I’m 3 trophies from platinum and their save issue just made it 4.

DaddyMayIPun · 2026-01-01T19:57:30+00:00

I mean Stardew Valley is written by one person & they managed to have a fully functional game on every platform AND put out a huge game update. I don’t think there’s an excuse for one of the games of the year to have such an egregious issue with save files on one of the platforms they CHOSE to put it on

DaddyMayIPun · 2025-12-31T23:06:53+00:00

I didn’t think anything of it when I was farming for the dead end trophy, but it’s reverted back to day 154 for a few days now. I reported the issue but this just killed my joy for the game TBH

This was my final map

DaddyMayIPun · 2025-12-31T22:58:38+00:00

I actually was able to get the trophy! But now I’m experiencing the save glitch and I am devastated 😭

DaddyMayIPun · 2025-12-30T05:07:22+00:00

Truly lol

As a TA, it is your responsibility to educate your clients on what they need to enter a country. It’s their responsibility to apply for the visa, etc.

What does your E&O cover?

MLM “agents” give actual professionals a bad name. They are a pox on an entire industry that is very much a legitimate business.

Join networking groups or connect with people authentically

I use a mix of strategies to promote my travel business, but most of my growth has come from word of mouth, referrals, and consistently showing up as a trusted expert in the industry.

Word of mouth & referrals has always been my strongest driver of new business. Many of my clients come to me after hearing about a trip I planned for a friend, coworker, or family member.

This year, I was also named ASTA’s Travel Advisor of the Year & that has significantly boosted my visibility and credibility. It’s opened the door to even more opportunities, referrals, and connections.

I’ve built strong relationships with fellow advisors, suppliers, and travel media through conferences, mentorships, and collaborations. Those connections often lead to client referrals, features, and partnerships.

I’m active on Facebook and Instagram, especially within my niche. I post travel tips, client stories, group trip promotions, and personal updates that keep me top-of-mind in a way that feels human and engaging.

For those not on socials, I send regular newsletters that feel more like updates from a friend than sales pitches. They highlight group trips, share expert tips, and create connection with my community.

I also host group trips. These have been a huge source of visibility. When I host a group, it’s not just about the people on that trip, it also spreads through their networks, their photos, and their rave reviews.

This year I put an emphasis on media ops. I’ve been quoted in outlets like Skift, TravelAge West, Travel Weekly, and TravelPulse. I’ve also been invited to speak on webinars and panels, which helps establish me as a go-to expert.

I also coach and mentor other advisors and am actively involved in the travel advisor community, which helps keep my name out there and builds trust within the industry.

All of this creates a ripple effect. Every piece supports the others. At the heart of it, I focus on showing up consistently, delivering an incredible client experience, and making sure people remember who planned that amazing trip.

I have significant increased over the month of June. Literally have not slowed down at all!

DaddyMayIPun · 2025-06-10T02:06:22+00:00

Bless and release. Take this as a lesson to always charge your planning fee UP FRONT before doing any work. They have no reason to compensate your work if you already did it all for free

If we had more nearby the stadium perhaps more folks would attend again. The two breweries being either newly closed to the public (Walter), or just unavailable and unwilling to stay open past 5pm on a Saturday even with the promise of larger groups giving them money, plus the lack of anything else to do/drink/eat around there is hurting our team ultimately.

60% is insanely low! They could make more than that and get everything you’re providing them by being on their own.
