ADVANTAGE RENT A
CAR LAUNCHES WEBSITE FOR SPANISH-SPEAKING CUSTOMERS
SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS (July 13, 2007). Advantage Rent A Car celebrates the
launch of our Spanish-version website where customers can make their car
reservations entirely in Spanish. At http://www.advantage.com, travelers
can also obtain information in Spanish about Advantage’s policies,
locations and fleet, specials, company information and partner programs.
“We are proud to offer our customers the choice of making online
reservations in Spanish,” said Bill Plamondon, President and Chief
Executive Officer, Advantage Rent A Car. “With California, Florida and
Texas among the top five Hispanic U.S. travel markets where we have a
significant presence, we feel we are in a favorable position to serve
the Hispanic population with their car rental needs.”
The United States is the second largest Spanish-speaking country in the
world, and according to Census Bureau figures, Hispanics are the fastest
growing sector in the entire U.S. population. Also, according to the
America Online(R)/Roper/ASW U.S. Hispanic Cyberstudy, a large percentage
of Hispanic consumers want more websites in Spanish. The launch of the
Advantage Rent A Car Spanish-version website addresses the Hispanic
community and their online preferences. In addition to a considerable
footprint throughout U.S. major leisure destinations, Advantage Rent A
Car has a strong brand presence in Latin America and the Caribbean
Advantage’s agency of record, 10TH DEGREE, was instrumental in the
launch of the new Spanish-version website through the use of technology
created with JAZEL, a web based platform that provides interface and
language accessibility.
