Car Rental Marketing and Google Ads

CGR Car Rental is a vehicle rental company based in Malaysia, offering a broad fleet of cars, MPVs, vans, and buses. Since its establishment in 2018, the company has prided itself on delivering well-maintained, reliable vehicles (all under 5 years old), transparent pricing (no hidden costs), and service across Malaysia. They serve a variety of customers, including individuals and families travelling, groups visiting Genting Highlands, airport transfers, tours, events, and corporate / business clients. This case study shows how we utilise Google Ads for clients’ car rental marketing and achieve fully booked cars and vans.

Industry: Car Rental Services in Malaysia

Our Service: Google Ads

 

Objectives

• Seasonal Demand & Under-utilised Fleet: CGR needed to ensure their vehicles (especially vans and MPVs) were booked consistently, especially during peak travel seasons (school holidays, festival periods, etc.).
• Competition & Market Visibility: The car-rental/van rental sector in Malaysia is highly competitive. CGR aimed to enhance discovery among potential customers searching online (e.g., Google).
• Maximise ROI: They had a limited budget, so each ringgit spent needed to generate real bookings.

 

Our Strategy

• Targeted Messaging: Different ads for cars vs vans, speaking directly to the needs of the searcher (solo / couples vs group travel), emphasising features such as “no hidden cost”, “15 Seater Van rental services”, “well-maintained fleet”. Including search keywords directly in the ad headlines and description improves keyword relevancy, yields a higher quality score, stronger ad strength, and a better click-through rate.
• Keyword Strategy: Using phrase match keywords for capturing searches; negative keywords to filter irrelevant traffic, while optimizing the target location searches.
• Continuous Optimization: Monitoring performance, adjusting bids, pausing underperforming keywords / ads, refining ad copy and adding negative keywords to improve click-through and conversion.
• Conversion Tracking & Analytics: Ability to track real bookings / calls / form fills and attribute back to keywords and ads, so budget could be shifted accordingly.
• Ad Extensions & Assets: Using sitelinks, call/WhatsApp extensions, image extensions to increase ad real estate and attractiveness.

Why Car Renting Businesses Should Work on Google Marketing

The car rental industry is highly competitive, where customers often make quick decisions based on convenience, availability, and price. Most people begin their search for cars or vans to rent directly on Google, typing queries such as “car rental near me” or “van rental Malaysia.” If your business doesn’t appear on the first page, you’re losing potential customers to competitors who do. Running Google Ads ensures your vehicles are visible immediately, while SEO builds long-term organic traffic and brand authority. Together, they create a powerful presence—capturing both instant bookings and steady future leads.
