Industry Overview

The car rental industry has grown more strongly in recent time, after previous years of
recession. This was primarily due to the fact that airlines saw a decrease in customers
which have now seen an increase too as compared to recent years, thereby linking air
travel to car rentals.
The car rental industry is expected to experience remarkable growth following an
increase in the number of passengers traveling by air, which is due to a rise in per capita
income as well as corporate profit. The largest car rental companies in the industry have
a competitive advantage over smaller firms, especially as they have strategic alliances
with airlines and hotels, which the smaller car rentals do not have.
Basically, players in this industry either rent or lease passenger cars to customers. Car
rental services typically last a short period of time usually 30 days or less, while car
leasing agreements are for longer period of time usually 12 months or more.
The major companies in this industry have created strong brand awareness and
therefore enjoy its recognition. This helps in retaining customers for these businesses,
and creating difficulty for new car rentals start-up towards getting customers and
retaining them as well.
Also, major companies constantly need to purchase fleets to meet up with customers’
demand, a feat that smaller companies cannot match up with, and yet regardless of the
number of cars in one’s fleet, maintenance, storage, and then staff the rental location.
The Car Rental Industry is indeed a large and thriving industry in developed countries
and in most part of the world. Statistics has it that in the united states of America alone,
there are about 2,716 licensed and registered car rental businesses responsible for
employing about 113,499 employees and the industry rakes in a whooping sum of $38bn
annually with an annual growth rate projected at 3.0 percent.
The car rental companies that are dominating the market are Avis Budget Group Inc.,
Enterprise Rent – A – Car Company, and Hertz Global Holdings Inc.
Apart from the increase in international travel, other key factors that drive the car rental
market include the increasing population, as well as increasing internet usage amongst
the people. Most online car rentals are due to the increase in internet usage, which has
made it more convenient for customers to access car rentals, and for car rental
businesses to increase their revenue.
The major restraint in this industry especially globally has been the increase in the
implementation of environmental regulations around the world.  The high amount of
environmental pollutants that is released by cars is highly responsible for these
environmental regulations.
Executive cars and MUVs are the leaders in the car rental business globally, followed by
economy cars, SUVs, and luxury cars. Apart from revenue from the airport segment,
other segments that contribute to the car rental business include outstation, local usage,
event transportation, employee transportation, and self-drive.
Over and above, car rental businesses all over the world are still enjoying good
patronage particularly if they are well positioned and if they know how to reach out to
their target market.

Car Rental SWOT Analysis


Car rental business is one of the many businesses that can easily generate sales with
little stress as long as they are well positioned and equipped to carry out their services.
We are building a standard car rental services business with variety of complimentary
services which is why we have decided to subject our business idea (company) to
SWOT Analysis.
Ordinarily we can successfully run a normal car rental services business without the
stress of going through the required protocol of setting up a new business including
writing a detailed business plan, but because of the nature of the kind of car rental
business we want to establish and of course the huge start – up capital involved, we
don’t have any option other than to follow due process.
We hired the services of Dr. Angela Bozeman, an HR and Business consultant with bias
in startups to help us conduct SWOT analysis for our company and she did a pretty job
for us. Here is a of the result we got from the SWOT analysis that was conducted on
behalf of McElroy® Car Rental Services, Inc.;

 Strength:

Aside from the large fleet of comfortable and highly reliable cars under our rental
services, McElroy® Car Rental Services, Inc. is centrally located in a densely populated
industrial and residential estate in Fort Lauderdale, Florida; our location is in fact one of
our major strength.
Another strength that counts for us is the power of our team; our workforce and
management. We have a team that are considered expert in the car rental industry, a
team of hardworking and dedicated individuals.

 Weakness:

McElroy® Car Rental Services, Inc. is a new business which is owned by an individual
(family), and we may not have the financial muscle to sustain the kind of publicity we
want to give our business. As a new business, we are also quite aware that it will take
time for us to build trust with our clients.

 Opportunities:
We are centrally located in one of the busiest areas in Fort Lauderdale, Florida and we
are open to all the available opportunities that the city has to offer. Our business concept
also positioned us to be a one stop shop in the car rental line of business.
The truth is that there is no standard and well – equipped car rental business within the
area where ours is going to be located; the closest car rental services company to our
proposed location is about 6 miles away. In a nutshell, we do not have any direct
competition within our target market area.

 Threat:

Some of the threats that are likely going to confront McElroy® Car Rental Services, Inc.
are unfavorable government policies, seasonal fluctuations, demographic / social
factors, downturn in the economy which is likely going to affect consumers spending and
of course emergence of new competitors within the same location where our car rental
business is located.

MARKET ANALYSIS

 Market Trends

If you are conversant with one of the latest trends in the car rental services industry, you
will note that more people now book to rent cars via mobile application, and other
internet access rather than visiting the car rental office. Car rental mobile application
usage has seen an increment in recent time.
The car rental business is also segmented into organized and unorganized labor, with
the organized labor expected to provide the highest incremental opportunity going
forward.
No doubt, the Car Rental Services industry has indeed changed gears over the last five
years, growing strongly after being forced into retrogression during the recession period.
The fact that air travelers represent the industry’s primary market, growth in air travel
over the last five years has been most important in driving revenue expansion in this
industry.
Furthermore, the industry is anticipated to continue growing going forward, driven by an
increase in the number of air travelers, rising per capita income and of course rising
corporate profit as well. The industry’s largest companies are expected to retain their
competitive advantages over smaller players, such as maintaining strategic alliances
with airlines and hotels
The trend in the car rental services industry is that most car wash companies in the bid
to survive the recent global economic meltdown included additional services to their core
service offerings. It is much easier for car rental companies to increase their revenues by
diversifying as against increasing the scope of their market.
Our Target Market
Before choosing a location for our car rental services business, we conducted our
feasibility studies and market survey and we were able to identify those who will benefit
greatly from our service offerings. Basically those who will benefit from our service
offering are households, traveling agencies cum tourists, corporate organizations and
hotels et al. They cut across different sectors of the economy.
The demographic component of those who need the services of car rental services
spreads across the public sector, the organized private sector, and individuals from
different strata of the society and from all walks of life. Below is a list of the people and
organizations that our car rental service is designed for;

 Traveling Agencies and tourists


 Organized private sector
 Households
 Corporate Executives
 Business People
 Hotels
 Students
 Household

Generating Funding / Startup McElroy® Car Rental Services, Inc.
McElroy® Car Rental Services, Inc. is a business that will be owned and managed by
McElroy Williams and his immediate family members. They are the sole financial of the
business which is why they decided to restrict the sourcing of the start – up capital for
the business to just three major sources.
These are the areas we intend generating our start – up capital;

 Generate part of the start – up capital from personal savings and sale of his
stocks
 Generate part of the start – up capital from friends and other extended family
members
 Generate a larger chunk of the startup capital from the bank (loan facility).

N.B: We have been able to generate about $500,000 (Personal savings $400,000 and


soft loan from family members $100,000) and we are at the final stages of obtaining a
loan facility of $1 million from our bank. All the papers and document has been duly
signed and submitted, the loan has been approved and any moment from now our
account will be credited.
Sustainability and Expansion Strategy
It is an established fact that, the future of a business lies in the numbers of loyal
customers that they have, the capacity and competence of the employees, their
investment strategy and the business structure. If all of these factors are missing from a
business (company), then it won’t be too long before the business close shop.
One of our major goals of starting McElroy® Car Rental Services, Inc. is to build a
business that will survive off its own cash flow without the need for injecting finance from
external sources once the business is officially running.
We know that one of the ways of gaining approval and winning customers over is to offer
our car rental services a little bit cheaper than what is obtainable in the market and we
are well prepared to survive on lower profit margin for a while.
McElroy® Car Rental Services, Inc. will make sure that the right foundation, structures
and standard operating processes are put in place to ensure that our staff welfare are
well taken of. Our company’s corporate culture is designed to drive our business to
greater heights and training and re – training of our workforce is at the top burner of our
business strategy.
As a matter of fact, profit-sharing arrangement will be made available to all our
management staff and it will be based on their performance for a period of five years or
more as determined by the board of the organization. We know that if that is put in place,
we will be able to successfully hire and retain the best hands we can get in the industry;
they will be more committed to help us build the business of our dreams.
