Jennifer Klingsmith’s family isn’t quite like everyone else’s.
“We’ve been married for 33 years, have three biological children and two adoptive children,” Jennifer says.
“We are also a state-licensed foster home. Our family has taken care of over 150 children in our home over the past 33 years. We only take special needs children, and most of them have a lot of doctors’ appointments plus many visits with family members.”
To say she’s busy would be an understatement. But Jennifer takes it all in stride and appreciates every moment she gets to spend with her family.
“We are a large family and do many things together,” she says. “We spend our days with lots of kids’ activities, and we also have our business that we love!”
You read that right! In addition to caring for her large family, Jennifer also finds time to run her own home-based travel agency business from her busy house in Indianapolis.
Help Clients Plan Vacations From Home
As a Cruise Planners home-based franchise owner, Jennifer helps clients plan amazing vacations including cruises, all-inclusive resort trips, guided land tours, and more. Cruise Planners continues to be one of the most affordable and low-cost franchises, which help make it easy for busy moms like Jennifer who have to get started quickly, want flexibility, and need the support of a proven franchise system. And as her own boss, Jennifer sets her own schedule, so she has the flexibility to always put her family first.
“Some months I work more than others,” Jennifer says. “One summer we had three children under the age of three, plus an autistic boy, in addition to my own five children, but I was still able to work my business. You have to be organized, use a calendar and be flexible, which Cruise Planners helps me do.”
Cruise Planners provides its travel advisors with the tools and support to succeed. Robust, hands-free marketing programs help drive sales and cutting-edge technology allows you to work from anywhere, even while traveling. Cruise Planners also provides comprehensive training and ongoing, one-on-one business development coaching to help you achieve your business goals.
Jennifer admits it’s not always smooth sailing, but she finds tremendous joy in caring for her family while also running a successful home-based travel business with the help and support of Cruise Planners.
“It’s not easy having a large family and working on top of that, but Cruise Planners makes it easy and you make it what you want it to be.”
