At rentoid - our main goal is to help people connect.
To get the stuff they need, to lead the life they want. In essence this means we’ll be able to help people out which makes us feel pretty goo. .If we help someone make some cash renting stuff out to others, or save some cash ny renting instead of buying, that’s cool too.
But we realise it’ll take us a while to let people know we can do this, and learn how to help people do it so we can improve our service.
With this in mind we thought we’d share this meme from the Cluetrain guys which really summarises our belief system perfectly. We aim to do all, and be all that this slide presentation suggests. So be sure to let us know how we are going, and how we can do better. We just do stuff our members request - no boardroom decisions here at rentoid.com
Here’s an intersting snippet from the latest Australia Scan report.
Having put Kevin in place, Australians are confident that he’ll tackle the big picture things that were concerning them like the environment, education and working hours (they hated Work Choices).
That means that they’re pretty happy to be able to focus more on the things that really matter to them: their families, friends, home and the things they enjoy.
Economic confidence is up, but there are some clouds on the horizon which are just beginning to touch Australian’s consciousness. The stock market is the first. Inflation is bubbling up and there are more risks down the track that they don’t know about.
At the same time, the cynicism about business is rising, in no small part prompted by a rash of opportunistic ‘green’ claims
What this means for marketers and advertisers is that the cosy sunshine of now may not last and it is imperative to look very closely at their brand promise and the accuracy of their targetting.The key for 2008 will be Brand Sincerity.
With the unsettled and somewhat hollow sense of the last years of the Howard Government behind them, Australians are looking forward to fresh, clever, new ideas to make a brighter future.
They’ll be more open to advice, tips and tricks from experts on everything from easy ‘green’ to easy makeovers, to easy car choices.At the same time they’ll be valuing good old-fashioned home comforts and family support.
At rentoid we live by our claims. We believe in what we do and want to teach Australia about the ‘real’ benefits of renting. we want a business which doesn’t destroy the environment in the first place. So be sure to keep us up to our promise.
* Thanks for you patience. Everything is back on track. Yep!
Hey rentoiders,
You might have noticed we’re got an issue with our search function on the front page. Our rock-star tech dudes are on it and will have it fixed in no time. Meanwhile, check out whatever you need to rent using the drop down category option under the find tab. Yep it sucks and we know it, its just one of those things that we have to deal with. We’ll be back up and running at full stream before you have time to say; “Rentoid connects owners and renters of almost anything”.
The rentoid team is currently at the HRIA conference and trade show. So if any attendees happen to be in the blogosphere and want to know how to grow their business online….
Come and see us. Or give me (Steve) a call on 0438 779566 personally and I’ll shout you we’ll have an espresso. (Coffee is free)
Here’s some proof that we can have a green future which doesn’t involve the globe living in caves and not enjoying life. The Tesla Roadster - at rentoid we love this car and thought we’d give it a plug.
Just like rentoid.com believes in ‘access’ rather than ’ownership’ - the Tesla proves that fast cars don’t have to be combustion engines.
The video below says it all… and as we say at rentoid - to change our future all we need to do is change our thinking.
By the way - we’d love a Tesla Roadster for hire on rentoid - let us know if you know anyone who’ll get on board.
Chanel, Fendi, Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Prada, Burberry….
Yep, these are the names, and we have them for all rent right here at rentoid.com
If you find it hard to justify spending several thousand dollars on buying a high end luxury handbags, then the simple solution is to rent them right here on rentoid.com
Handbag hire guru’s Love Me and Leave Me now have a selection of thier luxury offerings on rentoid. The cool thing about this collaboration is that you can get your hot little hands on an LMLM handbag for as little as 3 days or one week.
What a great way to sample the LMLM service which usually operates on a monthly membership. If you rent one of their handbags via rentoid you get to see how great the Love Me and Leave Me service is before you join - and we’re sure you will.
Rentoiders - we’ve noticed some issues on our search function at the moment. Some search using the front page What and Where function are not working properly.
The good news is we’re onto it.. and in the interim please search by category.
We think anyone would be crazy to buy a yacht or large crusier ‘glamour boat’.
Even if you can afford the $300,000 - $3,000,000 it would cost to buy. If you are that rich (and we hope you are), we’d guess you’re a little time poor…..
So given you’ll use your new boat a few times a year, or a few times a month at best. We’ve got a great solution for you.
Hire it instead. Take a fractional ownership or membership in one. Like this awsome pleasure cruiser below:
In fact, you can take annual membership out on rentoid on this beauty for a little over $1000 per month. This entitles you to over 15 days per annum usage. You don’t have to a wizkid to know its much better value. Click the links below to check it out:
And you can forget about cleaning, maintaining, mooring and all the other challanges owning a high end boats brings, as all that’s taken care of. In fact, they even provide training to captain the boat.
Bonus: Keep the wife happy by not buying that boat (have your cake and eat it too!)
No doubt all our Melbourne (home city of rentoid.com) rentoid members will be aware of our weather…. but yesterday she sure did put on a show.
Gale force winds of up to 130km
Dust storms across the entire state
Severe hail and thunder storms
The net result being 200,000 houses without power, over 3000 emergency calls for help commuter chaos as trains were stopped, roads closed and the airport shut down. The destruction can be easily seen just walking or driving around the city.
If you’re backyard is a mess and there’s a clean up on your hands, we happy to help with everything from ladders, chainsaws, tarpolines or even tents if things are bad, and anything your garden or garage lacks.
