Charlottesville, Virginia (July 31, 2012) – Regatta Travel Solutions announced today that they have signed an agreement with the Helena, Montana CVB and Tourism Business Improvement District (TBID) to power their new website helenamt.com
 
“The Helena CVB has been working very hard to launch their new website HelenaMT.com,” said Ashwin Kamlani, President of Regatta Travel Solutions.  “We are proud that the CVB chose the Regatta booking engine for their new site.  The project has only been live for a short time but we have already seen exciting results.”
 
“The truth is that we weren’t really sure what to expect from having a booking engine on HelenaMT.com,” said Heidi O’Brien, Director of Sales & Marketing for The Helena Tourism Business Improvement District.  “But the hotels started receiving CVB bookings through Regatta almost immediately after launch, and this has brought about a renewed energy not only within the CVB, but among our hotel partners as well.”
 
Regatta Travel Solutions is breaking records by increasing production volumes.  Regatta enables CVBs to demonstrate a measurable, tangible benefit to their partners since bookings will arrive to the hotels and attractions as CVB bookings.  Regatta’s marketing solutions allow the CVBs to achieve a much higher ROI by optimizing their online marketing investments since Regatta allows them to tie each booking back to the specific marketing activity as a source.
