Hey gang - this went out today, thought you might all find it interesting.
Austin, TX- RezOvation, the leader in property management systems for inns, B&B, hotels, and specialty lodging with its GT and Webervations products, today announced a new partnership with JackRabbit Systems, an emerging technology for
destination marketing organizations (DMOs) and convention and visitors bureaus (CVBs). Now all RezOvation and Webervations users will enjoy full commission tracking for JackRabbit sites, along with a streamlined billing process. 'From day one, JackRabbit Systems included small properties on a level playing field with larger hotels. It is this type of exposure that helps small properties to compete, and we wanted to make it as easy as possible for our customers to capture as many additional consumers as they can while having the proper tools to track the reservations,' RezOvation CEO Eric Goldreyer explained. 'We are also able to provide a streamlined billing process so that RezOvation and Webervations customers can take advantage of this additional distribution as easily as possible,' continued Goldreyer.
In a short amount of time, JackRabbit Systems has emerged as a leading provider of booking engine solutions for DMOs. JackRabbit's Booking Engine enables DMO and CVB sites to offer consolidated availability displays including hotels, motels, inns, B&Bs, and other lodgings. The system checks availability at participating properties, then sends consumers directly to a property website to make a reservation. All properties are listed in a similar fashion regardless of size or lodging type. Hundreds of RezOvation and Webervations customers are already seeing a significant amount of reservation volume through these distribution websites. Some of the sites include the Daytona Beach, Florida Convention and Visitors Bureau, www.daytonabeach.com;, the City of Sante Fe, www.santafe.org; the New Mexico Lodging Association, www.nmlodging.org; and over 50 other sites. During the next 60 days, JackRabbit will be deploying its search engine on the websites of the State Tourism Departments of Florida, Texas, Montana and New Mexico 'RezOvation and Webervations have recognized the tremendous opportunity to gain exposure for their customers and have proactively sought out a way to make it as easy as possible for them to be included in the JackRabbit sites, with accurate reservation and commission tracking systems in place,' commented JackRabbit Systems CEO Andrew Van Luchene. 'RezOvation and Webervations are now officially JackRabbit's primary small property PMS, given the attention to detail they have put into making the system work, and the easy billing process they have put in place for small properties,' Van Luchene noted.
The new partnership begins immediately. RezOvation and JackRabbit Systems have already tested and activated the tracking mechanisms for both RezOvation and Webervations products, and RezOvation will begin billing for JackRabbit Systems on April 1. Interested properties can contact either company for more information, and need to sign a simple distribution agreement with JackRabbit Systems to be included on a JackRabbit-powered site. 'This is one more example of how RezOvation and Webervations are extending the marketing reach of B&Bs to capture as many consumers as possible,' noted John Banczak, COO of RezOvation. 'The key to success for small lodging properties is to gain exposure in as many ways as possible; we are working hard to make this happen as easily as possible for our customers,' he concluded.

About JackRabbit:
