Top ranking independent car rental network, CheapRentACar.com, teams with VR Design Group to offer comprehensive low cost web site solutions.
San Diego, CA --June 1, 2003-- Cheaprentacar.com, a network for independent rental car companies, will offer web site design, hosting and other related services through its partnership with VR Design Group, a web presence development firm. With this combination, independent rental car companies with or without a web site will be able to increase business by having a total web presence solution from one source. This new alliance will allow companies to build low cost web sites, and by joining the CheapRentACar.com network they increase their market reach through a nationwide internet network that provides rental reservations.
VR Design Group has developed a Basic web site package exclusively for independent rental car companies. This package includes
four to six professionally designed web pages, web site hosting for 1 year, submission to over 1,500 search engines and web directories, and more.
Included in this package is one year registration of a domain name (URL) if a company does not already have one. The web site design will include a home page with a brief description of the rental company; site features; a company logo and any company supplied photos or graphics; navigation buttons to link to other pages; an email contact link; and optional stock photos/graphics to add character.
Additional pages will include an About page;

Until now, companies either get a quote for thousands of dollars and never have their site created, or they get a one page “do it yourself” web site that doesn’t do their company justice. Now independent car rental companies can have a professional web site, link it to our network for referral reservations, and create a complete web business for under
$300.”

Top
ranking independent car rental network web site, CheapRentACar.com,
announces upcoming launch of their new "Real Time, Online Rate
Quote & Booking system"
San Diego, CA—February
20, 2003 – CheapRentACar.com is
developing
a
first-class online rate quote and booking system for Premier
members. What sets the new system apart from other online booking
systems is that it:
-
Does not
charge per-reservation fees for rental car companies.
-
Provides
the same services that larger web sites and software companies
provide, but for much less.
-
Provides
rental car companies 24/7 administrative access.
-
Allows
links to a rental car company's pre-existing website (if
applicable).
-
Allows
separate passwords for employees, booking agents or travel
agents.
This is a
full-featured system
that offers independent rental car companies with the same type of
services used by the national rental car networks and
software companies. Each rental car company will have 24/7 internet
access with their own private passwords; “reservation display”
access that can be set up for individual employees, travel agents or
booking partners; the ability to customize pricing
for each vehicle type, in addition to daily, weekly, monthly, and
seasonal rates; custom reservation confirmation pages,
emails, with logos; and their own terms and conditions. In addition,
they will be able to specify, with pictures and text, vehicle types,
extras such as ski racks, tow kits or any other premium add-on.
Other reservation software companies charge thousands of dollars for
these services, which CheapRentACar.com will include as a part of
their Premier membership.
"The
market is very competitive. Companies and
customers have many choices,” said Anthony
Reiter, Director of Operations. “We feel we can provide
valuable services for independent rental car companies by allowing
them to compete with the national companies, but at a fraction of
the cost.”
In addition
to the privileges mentioned above, the new rate quote & booking
system enables rental companies to cut staffing time by requiring
replies only to those emails requesting actual bookings rather than
just rate quotes. The system allows the customer to enter any rental
date, vehicle, and other options and see the rental rate prior to
actual booking. The system will track visits to the booking system,
actual reservations, special offer codes,
booking agent codes
and more.
"We are
already one of the highest ranking sites on Yahoo! and Google [for
keywords, "cheap rent a car" + any city]. This provides
essential built-in marketing for any independent rental company, for
those already on the internet or those just starting out, and
easy access for consumers," added Reiter. "Plus now we
have the tools to help independent rental car companies run
an affordable web-enabled rental site. Our goal is to provide
excellent service and value for every independent rental car company
in the U.S. and their customers at CheapRentACar.com Network."
CheapRentACar.com
provides internet marketing and services for independent rental car
companies. Services include internet promotion, web based rate quote
and booking systems, full service web design and internet marketing
tools for independent rent-a-car companies.

New CheapRentACarNetwork.com Website Lets
Independent Rent-A-Car Companies Compete for
Consumers’ Business
San Diego, CA – June 12, 2002 – The
developers of number-one ranking
CheapRentACar.com announce the upcoming launch
of their new online rental car directory,
CheapRentACarNetwork.com (http://www.CheapRentACarNetwork.com). What sets
CheapRentACarNetwork.com apart is that it:
-
exclusively serves
independent rent-a-car companies
-
provides high visibility
through top rankings in search engines
-
offers the lowest rates to
consumers
Anticipating a July 4, 2002
launch date, this site will offer consumers the
opportunity to select a city or airport in the
U.S., view information on listed rent-a-car
companies, and request customized quotes from
one or several companies.
"We have a family-run and
owned independent rent-a-car company and have
been in the business for over 25 years. When we
launched CheapRentACar.com in 1999, business
increased dramatically. In addition, over 80% of
the inquiries coming to our website were for
rentals all across the country [their dealership
is located in Los Angeles, CA]," said
Anthony Reiter, director of operations for
CheapRentACarNetwork.com. "This made us
realize that there was a real market out there,
and that consumers often prefer to do rent-a-car
business online. We want the independent rental
companies to succeed, which in turn will result
in more choices and better rates to
consumers."
Among the website’s features
is their unique ccQuotes©, or
customized competitive quotes, which allows
consumers to request quotes from one or several
companies with the click of a mouse. Because
consumers can specify their particular rental
requirements and features, they will have the
reassurance that rent-a-car companies are giving
them a unique, competitive "out the
door" bid customized to their needs, with
no added or hidden fees. This feature enables
rental companies to compete on a case-by-case
basis, and puts consumers in control. CcQuotes
does not require that rental companies have
access to a computer, thus providing consumers
with more companies from which to choose.
Each rental company will have
icons identifying the features they offer, such
as trucks, cash rentals, under-25 rentals,
pick-up and delivery, and more, including a
special icon highlighting rentals
$ /day. There will also be maps/directions,
pricing, contact information, links to company
websites, and a customized webpage to provide
additional information. CheapRentACarNetwork.com
will post special offers provided by rental
companies, which can result in savings for the
consumer and increased business for the rental
company. In addition, there will be a local
merchant directory on each city page, listing
businesses such as lodging, restaurants, travel,
repair, and other rental-related services.
"We already rank number one
on Yahoo! and Google [for keywords, "cheap
rent a car"]. This ensures high visibility
for independent rental companies and easy access
for consumers," added Reiter. "Our
goal is to provide excellent service and value
for every independent rental car company in the
U.S. and their customers at CheapRentACarNetwork.com."
CheapRentACar.com
provides internet marketing and services for independent rental car
companies. Services include internet promotion, web based rate quote
and booking systems, full service web design and internet marketing
tools for independent rent-a-car companies.
