Gus (celebrity dog) sleepin’

one comment

This is Gus. Gus claims to work hard at the Haul store, mainly as a personal shopping assistant.

For the uninitiated Haul make cool bagsMacBook sleeves from old advertising billboards and well, their business is nearly as cool as rentoid.com - Check it out.

Every time any of the rentoid.com crew get out Fitzroy way, Gus seems to be sleepin’ on the job. We did consider head hunting him for rentoid.com for a period….. but now we reckon it might just be better to list him on rentoid for rent. So that stressed executives can take him for a walk in the park and learn how to chill out.

Customer Service - rentoid style

leave a comment

Here’s a little email chain from a rentoid member / customer. We couldn’t help him this time. But we responded openly and honestly. This is what transpired:

Hi guys,

I called (rentoid member) several times and wrote him a mail. No reactions yet, and now it is too late.
I had to rent a flash for a three times higher price.
(yes we are usually cheaper at rentoid)

Please refund my money.
Cheers Jörg

Hey Jorg,

Two things:
1. We have already refunded your rentoid fee into your paypal account.
2. We’ll check and ensure Sean is still out there and not on Holiday. If he doesn’t respond we’ll remove him from our database.

This type of thing happens rarely. Sorry you didn’t get what you need, this time. Though we’re sure all will be cool next time.
Steve.

Hi Steve,
thanks for the fast response.

According to our chat and the Idea standing behind rentoid for sure I will get back to you guys. The purpose of my mail was just to inform you about the situation and your next steps are exactly the steps I would do as well to ensure high quality.

Enjoy your weekend,
Jörg

This is how we roll at rentoid.com

Environmental Challenge No 1.

3 comments

The greatest challenge of all facing the environment is this. The decision makers live in the house immediately below:

rich house

This is the outlook they have:

The outlook they have on a daily basis does not reflect the challenges we face. There is no physical evidence in their day to day living. In order to orchestrate change, the decision makers would have to live in this house below:

With this outlook:

These houses are a 30 minute drive from each other, in the one city. In two separate suburbs. The fact is our environment shapes our immediate behavior. If we want true behavioral change then we must change peoples outlooks.
