NEW YORK, NY December 5, 2012 – HeBS Digital, the leading digital marketing and direct online strategy firm for the hospitality industry, has been honored with five HSMAI Adrian Awards in the digital marketing division, including one Gold Award for the 2011 Shell Vacations Hospitality Black Friday Multichannel Marketing Campaign. The 2012 Adrian Awards honor outstanding achievements in advertising, public relations and digital marketing in the travel industry.
 
HeBS Digital won the following five HSMAI Adrian Awards in the Digital Marketing division:

Gold Award
Silver Awards
Bronze Award
“The Adrian Awards recognize the best in the industry and we are honored to be presented with five awards this year,” said Max Starkov, President & CEO of HeBS Digital. “HeBS Digital worked closely with each client to align creative and business goals to maximize returns.  We designed these award-winning websites with the goal of supporting multichannel marketing campaigns – resulting in a high number of direct bookings and staggering ROIs that won us these awards.”
