MIAMI, October 9, 2023 – Regent Seven Seas Cruises®, the world’s leading luxury ocean cruise line, is empowering and investing in its Travel Advisors with Regent Connect, an end-to-end content co-branding solution to supercharge their marketing and sales efforts while delivering an unrivaled client experience.

“Regent Connect’s co-branding solution is a first for the cruise industry, opening up a world of possibilities for our valued Travel Advisor community to deliver luxury-caliber personalization to their guests,” said Shawn Tubman, SVP Sales for Regent Seven Seas Cruises. “When we launched Regent Elevate, our new Travel Partner program, we promised industry-leading support for the travel trade, and Regent Connect demonstrates that we are fully committed to this pledge.”

Supporting engagement throughout the entire sales process, the innovative solution – which is complimentary for Travel Advisors to utilize – consists of two interconnected parts, instantly co-brandable “content experiences” that advisors can use to inspire, delight and stay in touch with clients and a dynamically co-branded Regent website to drive conversion. 

The content experiences set the stage for clients, who can then click through to the co-branded website, to view real-time access to cruise availability, pricing and call to actions that drive leads directly to the Travel Advisor. Further, unlike other co-branding solutions, there are no obstacles to getting started, no long registration forms, no passwords to remember, no waiting for approval — Travel Advisors simply enter an email address.

“What makes this so exciting is how tightly integrated everything is. Travel Advisors can seamlessly connect their outbound marketing with conversion directly on their own co-branded Regent website, all the while keeping their branding front and center when engaging with luxury travelers,” stated Jennifer Pintaluba, VP Trade Marketing & Sales Engagement for Regent Seven Seas Cruises.

The new service is powered by technology from Approach Guides, the leading content optimization platform for travel brands, and is the result of a long-term ongoing collaboration focused on championing best-in-class, innovative and easy-to-use applications for Travel Advisors that elevate their personal interactions with luxury clients.

“Singularly focused on supporting its Travel Advisors, Regent Connect is as powerful as it is easy to use,” said Jennifer Raezer, co-founder and CMO of Approach Guides. “It’s what the luxury travel advisor community has been waiting for and it’s from a brand they love. The perfect combination.”
