About Shannon:

🌟 Shannon Hawkins – Business Development Manager | Cruise Brothers

For more than a decade, I have served as a Business Development Manager with Cruise Brothers, where I mentor, train, and support one of the industry's top-producing teams of travel advisors. My passion is helping agents build successful travel businesses through education, hands-on coaching, and proven sales and marketing strategies.

I develop comprehensive training programs, webinars, and step-by-step guides that empower both new and experienced travel advisors to confidently book cruises, resorts, tours, and group travel while providing exceptional service and value to their clients. My goal is to give every agent the knowledge, tools, and confidence they need to grow a profitable business and create unforgettable travel experiences.

Beyond training, I am passionate about using travel as a force for good. I organize large group cruises and fundraising events that support charitable organizations, with a special commitment to animal welfare. By combining my love of travel, education, and community service, I help create vacations that not only make lifelong memories but also give back to meaningful causes.
