Really, I couldn't have said this better myself!  Ok, quite honestly, I'm not sure even I could have come up with 101 reasons--at least not quickly... :)

101 Reasons to Use a Travel Agent

Most of these reasons really boil down a couple of main things: 

-I'm here to provide great value for your vacation dollar (I work within YOUR budget and can stretch that budget go as far as it can go!)

-I provide great customer service (you talk to/email the same person every time (gasp!)).

-I can make your life a little easier (one-stop travel shopping and you can let me be the organizer for your group vacation!).

Customer service in particular is REALLY important to me, primarily because there doesn't seem to be much anymore and that is extremely frustrating! :( 

One last important item--using a travel agent (me!) does not cost you more money!  My suppliers do not pass the costs (my commission) on to you.  This also means I can do tons of research for you for one low price:  $0!  :)  So, ask away!
