Problem
Owners and renters share a lot in common, but they possess very different motivations and desires. Many RV owners are senior citizens and don’t “full-time” in their RVs.
Meanwhile, many millennial-aged renters are looking at the RV lifestyle as a potential full-time endeavor. Therefore they see the need to test out different possible options before committing.
How might we deliver a shopping experience that gives RV renters the necessary information and confidence to get on the road.

RV OWNERS
” I have had an RV for years, but it spends a lot of time in the driveway or in a paid cover parking lot.”

RV RENTERS
” We’re looking to get into the RV lifestyle, but want to try out different options and see what’s a good fit for us.”
Shopping discovery
When a visitor is using the rental listings page, they need to be able to turn on/off several different filterable options.
Many of these options are unique to the RV rental industry, and it’s often that many rv renters are unsure of what they’re looking for. So being able to educate renters on those differences in the context of filtration, becomes much more important.
RV details
It’s not all glamor shots and Instagram-worthy photos in the outdoor tech industry. One of the biggest challenges of the RV rental product page was just how poor some of the photos could be.
If that was difficult, an even bigger challenge was the number of unique options that any given RV would need, in order to calculate towards the nightly price. The options possible on an RV are seemingly limitless.
Engagement outcomes
We had a relatively short engagement with RVshare, but once the design was in place it had an immediate positive impact. With improved on-page satisfaction, we doubled monthly traffic and increased monthly rentals during the busiest time of year for RV travel, the summer of 2018.
