"Rental Car Magic"

04-26-2008

 

It's like magic. An email notifies you that your upcoming car rental rate has dropped by almost 30%. All you need to do is re-book.  Rental Car Magic has launched a personalized service that tracks rental car rates for specific vehicle types and selected dates and destinations, searches and applies discounts, and sends an email alert when a reduced price is found.

"Rental car rates fluctuate frequently and dramatically based on availability, demand and many other factors," said Steven Ellis, marketing magician for Rental Car Magic. "It's difficult or impossible for travelers to search every day for the best price and available discounts on car rentals. Rental Car Magic  will do this for them, and furthermore, guarantee them that we will find them a lower rate."

Rental Car Magic  is easy and simple to use. After reserving a rental car, customers enter their rental information at Rental Car Magic . The reservation is tracked and available discounts are applied until the rental date begins. Customers are notified by email when a cheaper rate, which exactly matches their rental requirements, is found. Rental Car Magic  costs $14.95 per reservation, and comes with a money back guarantee if Rental Car Magic  cannot find a rental rate at least $15.00 cheaper. Either way, customers are assured they are getting a great rate for their rental.

The Problem with the Traditional Rental Car Search Experience

Most rental car companies use a rate system called "yield management". This system is based on supply (availablity) and demand, at any given time. Rates can change dramatically by the day, hour and even minute based on these factors. Rates can also fluctuate widely when constantly changing and often obscure discount codes, promotion codes, and e-coupons are applied. All of these variables add a high degree of uncertainty as to whether a quoted rate is the best rate, and more importantly, will remain the best rate. This system leaves many travelers with "rate worry", wondering if and when their rental rate will decline.

The Rental Car Magic Experience

Although the existing rental car rate system can be confusing and problematic, there is one good thing about it: rental car reservations can usually be modified or cancelled at no charge. This flexibility allows travellers to re-book a rental should a cheaper rate be found. Rental Car Magic  encourages travelers to find their best rate and lock it in. Then, sit back and relax. Rental Car Magic  will monitor the rate, apply discounts, and send an email alert when the rate declines. It's simple and easy to take "rate worry" out of the rental car search experience.
