“I looked at a few other programs, but they all felt like they were trying to recruit me into an MLM. The Deolix Academy is completely different. It’s professional training for people who want to be independent business owners. It was refreshing to just learn the skills without the sales pitch.”

Eric Fontaine

“What I appreciate most is that Dean Horvath is actually responsive. In other courses, you feel like a number, but here the mentorship feels personal. He helped me navigate a tricky client situation that could have cost me the booking.”

Jonathan Nichols

“I used to be terrified to charge planning fees. I thought I’d lose all my clients. I followed the Selling Luxury Travel scripts, and guess what? My clients thanked me for the professionalism. I wish I had done this five years ago.”

Cynthia Dodson

“Honest, practical, and incredibly detailed. The Deolix Academy gave me the confidence to quit my day job and go full-time.”

Brian Petterson

“I spent so much time researching how to become a luxury travel advisor and just felt overwhelmed by all the host agency options. This course cut through the noise. I felt confident picking my partners because I finally understood how the money actually works behind the scenes.”
