2022 Travel Experiences Q and A

We’re gearing up for new tings in 2022!  In case you didn’t hear our announcement at the Virtual Carnival Extravaganza, we’re launching 2 new travel experiences next year: Ultimate Girls Getaway and Ultimate Summer Carnival

(1) Ultimate Girls Getaway will be happening in April 2022 on the beautiful island of Barbados!  The focus on Ultimate Girls Getaway is giving you taste of the good life; a full immersion in great food, beautiful scenery and unforgettable good times. 

(2) Mark your calendars for Aug 4-9, 2022 for Ultimate Summer Carnival!  There are several Caribbean Carnivals that happen during the months of June to August annually, so we’re planning a new one each year and taking you along for the adventure.  In 2022, we’re excited to take you to the spice isle of Grenada for their annual Spicemas!  You definitely need to get this on your trip checklist; trust us.

Our 2022 Travel Experiences Q and A will be your opportunity to see the details of both trips, ask any questions you might have AND take advantage of our Launch Special!  See below for the Q and A details:

Carnivalista Marketing Method
  • In just 3 sessions, you can make more money in your business!
  • The Carnivalista Marketing Method takes everything that we’ve learned over 10 years of being in business.  This valuable information is all refined and shared so you don’t make the same marketing mistakes we made.
  • If you’d like to sell more of your services or your products, then you’re not effectively marketing.
