There are many out there who have rented cars in the past without really understanding the intricacies of the car rental industry. Thank goodness you really don’t need to know every little nuance of the industry to rent a car and get a good deal. Thats right, we are going to save money today!
There are, however, some basics that people really need to know in order to find the best car rental rates. Some of the deals aren’t that hard to find, but if your not looking for them, they will never find their way into your repertoire of rental saving tips. Some may think the only way you can save money on car rentals is to take advantage of travel agent deals and the buzz word of the decade “bundling.” Well folks, even when using the dredded B word, you can indeed save money, but there are some tricks of the trade that can save you even MORE money on TOP of those Bundles.
Others think that the only way you can save is to reserve your car when the prices are low. Sure, that works, but car rental companies have built in ways to save money YEAR ROUND. You can rent a car last second and save money, you can reserve almost an entire year in advance and save money as well. Saving money is for big companies and small time renters also. Rental Car deals are EVERYWHERE, from your local supermarket, to your car insurance company, to the internet, even in your wallet right now! There are literally thousands of ways to save money on your rental car!
I am sure you are thinking “this is too good to be true!” Believe me, when I first joined the industry, I thought the same thing, but the longer I spent in there, the more I realized how easy it was to get a Convertible for $20 dollars a day, or a Minivan for 30 Dollars a day. Sure those prices arent there all the time, but thats part of the fun, you need to hunt, prep, prepare, and sometimes you just gotta be lucky. This course will teach you to be “lucky” and help you prepare.
I just recently left the Car Rental Industry after many years as a manager of a car rental agency where i worked at several airports. I survived two strikes, entered into a management training fast track and “did time” in car rental reservations at several call centers around the nation and handed out car rental keys and deals at seven different airports and 5 different off airport locations.
