iRent2u.com - A Company with a Mission…Statement

We have a fun little game for all our loyal readers. For the winners, “fame and fortune will follow you until the end of your days” (from a fortune cookie I got recently).

OK, well not a lot of fortune, but we will recognize anyone who does well (fame!). And recognition is supposed to be pretty important these days. According to (…) 70% of employees would rather get more recognition for their work than to get a raise. Wow! That is great news for employers who listen. :wink:

But what is the game you ask? It is “Guess the Mission Statement“.

Sound boring? No way! We have gone out of our way to get some of the greatest mission statements available today. Then we made it a little trickier. We hacked them up and changed them into something that WE would say.

So below you have eight mission statements. Six of them are altered versions from major companies around the world, and the two others are different parts of ours.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is “To identify the original company’s missions statements.” Now that is fun!!!

Good Luck!

  1. “We help people rent practically anything on earth.”
  2. “iRent2u.com aims to collect all the worlds’ rentals and make it universally accessible and useful online.”
  3. “Our mission is to make the world more efficient. We will use technology to harness the power of community & increase rentals, and thus allow everyone to get more from what they already have.”
  4. “Our goal is to establish iRent2u.com as the premier rental hub with the greatest selection and availability of rentals in the world.”
  5. “iRent2u.com’s mission is to connect people to rentals, their communities, and help them get more from what they already have.”
  6. “iRent2u.com’s mission to build a place where people can come to find and access anything they might want to rent.”
  7. “To be the world leader in listing and facilitating efficient, cost-effective rentals based on advances in internet technologies and community interaction.”
  8. “We help you rent anything, anywhere, from anyone, for less.”

    Hello Tibo,

    Glad to see you on the site. I would say the main difference between our two companies is that we are in the US and erento is in Germany. We are very excited to launch our company in a market 4 times the size in population and see where we can go with it.

    We have a lot more differences, but that is likely the most important. The rest I will leave for you to see when we do our public beta launch this November.

    Have you ever used erento?
