iyaegin: I drive an Honda 2007. It's very clean. And in great condition. I believe it's the positioning issue I have. Please where are the best possible places. And I'm only on Uber presently. Should I be in the two platforms to make the 12k daily? Plus is it after expenses or plus expenses. |

chloride6: So on point sir! Good analogy, I rent a 3 bedroom office apartment from my landlord for #1,200,000=00 a year, then set up my management consulting firm. Say CBN, Access Bank, Royal Exchange Group, Dangote PLC etc all give me consulting projects during the course of the year, leading me to turnover #100,000,000=00 in profit by the end of the year. Question - would that be a taboo? For me (driver) to earn more than my landlord (partner)? The excess cash flow generated, is it not a direct result of the hours of effort I put in? 3 Likes |

[quote author=dru23 post=65367800] Lol .. Help a brother out now. It is the remix I want do o. I spoke to the young man . He explained things to me, drivers are lazy and they don't plan. It is very true uber is more than driving up and down These drivers need training o. Person that makes this much doing it part time . I don't think he has two heads. Because he is now on my what apps and na only one head I see. If I hear or see any drivers, fleet managers complaining that request slow. Or that owners should reduce rental fee. I will go my villager personally and deal with that person or group. [/quote Has anybody confirmed that he drives part time only?

[quote author=dru23 post=65491784] Well the shocks I got is OE parts. Made in China. Everything is made in China now. But if it is coming to USA there is some form of quality control. No USA company wants to get sue by importing way below sub standard product. Unlike third world countries that China has made a dumping ground. Well if you look at it is the importer that goes to China and tell the manufacturer the grade of product they want. And to cut costs they ask for the cheapest type. At the end we can't really blame China. We need to blame the government for not enforcing the checks and balance of stuff that comes into the country. |

N.B: This post was initially published in the Car-talk & Autos room. Someone wanting to help advised I check this room out (thanks stacyadams, truly appreciate the tip) as it would give my post more exposure and whatnot. Again, my initial post (that which is replicated here) has been dissected, critiqued and evaluated by informed minds in those rooms (a development I truly appreciate) albeit negatively viz; my inability to remit the weekly sum I intend remitting to a potential investor due to various cogent reasons they cited. Needless to say, I politely disagreed with their stance giving reasons of my own why I am of the conviction that I can remit to a potential principal the sums I intend doing (let's just say I already have a strategy in place and a market just waiting on me). Considering this development, it would be appreciated if we don't start going back and forth about how impossible my quest is. All I am hoping to find is an informed principal willing to reason with me. Having said this, do read on and hopefully any informed investor who is interested in my "pipe dream" should please indicate interest by giving me a call or leaving their means of contact so I can reach out to him/her. For more information my earlier thread kindly see: https://www.nairaland.com/4353370/hire-purchase-vehicle-needed-uber-taxify Thanks and warmest regards Hello All! Please I am on the look-out for any individual (or corporate entity) willing to subscribe to a hire-purchase vehicle acquisition plan. The said vehicle I intend to use on the Uber/Taxify platform to generate the fund needed for full payment of the vehicle within the allotted and agreed time span. I am willing to subscribe to a repayment plan spanning 18-24 months. I will be remitting to my principal a minimum of N40, 000 and a maximum of 50, 000 weekly. Unfortunately, I do not have any equity contribution. The aforementioned figures were arrived at after exhaustive research (informed by first-hand information garnered from existing subscribers 63 subscribers cutting across married and single individuals to this vehicle acquisition plan via Uber/Taxify platform were interviewed by myself] and officials of Uber and Taxify) and co-relating the results of the research with extant variables relative to the business and its environment (cost of fuel, availability of fuel, vehicle downtime due to maintenance schedule, in-sensitiveness of fellow road users,temperamental fares, commission rate, toll fees, insurance, average work hours in a day, acts of God etc.). I did not confer with any provider of a hire-purchase service as it was not pertinent to the information I was seeking (striking a balance between what is practical and what can be termed overambitious [hence not feasible] in respect to how much money can be remitted weekly/monthly to the principal). I discovered in my research that situations where individuals promise to remit weekly/monthly amounts way over what is practical in a bid to convince a potential principal to buy into their plan is very common. Not surprisingly, more than 90% of these individual renege on remitting these sums to their principal hence the deal being DOA. I do not fall into this category of persons given my pragmatic outlook on the affairs of life. I always strive for a win-win situation in all my business and personal dealings hence the sums I have projected to remit to my principal on a weekly basis. I am taking my time to explain this aspect of my proposal (never minding how inexhaustive it may look [the finer details can be worked out when I meet with a potential principal]) as it happens to be the crux of the whole business arrangement. WHY I AM DOING THIS I have decided to toe this path given my current job and financial situation. I am one individual who espouses the philosophy that it is not so much what life throws at you that matters but how you deal with it. Everyone falls sometime but, only the wise, brave and intrepid in spirit learn from the situation, get up, dust themselves over and move on. I do not believe so much in “hand-outs” rather believing in investing my time and thoughts in productive labour that would yield positive and far-reaching results temporally and spiritually. I espouse a philosophy that believes hard-work, determination and faith can get you places hence my professional antecedents notwithstanding, it is a decision I have carefully thought over and embraced. WHY I TOOK MY TIME I have been looking for a clean, mechanically sound and fairly priced direct tokunbo vehicle (Toyota Camry or Corolla, Honda, Hyundai and the like). I am sure we all understand why (fuel efficiency, low maintenance cost among others). The offers I have been getting are Naija used vehicles that may give me so much mechanical problems and we all know what this means (time lost at mechanic workshops which in turn informs poor revenue turnover which again occasions inability to meet up with payments thus leading to general frustration-something I can do without). WHY YOU SHOULD CONSIDER ME I am an experienced driver with a valid driver license. I reside in Lagos and I am a man on a mission (not a mission to renege on agreements made!) Assuming the vehicle is in shipshape condition mechanically and aesthetically (clean, direct tokunbo without ANY problems), you can be rest assured that I will keep to my end of the bargain. No stories whatsoever. My knowledge and skill in business development, sales, KAM, marketing and communication will come in handy in the course of carrying out my driving duties all to the end of ensuring that I work efficiently and effectively thus maximising profit (earnings per day) and minimising cost (owing to excusitis, poor relationship with fares, lackadaisical attitude to vehicle maintenance, laziness, lost production time due to loafing about and inability to prioritise, plain stupidity and absence of scruples to mention but a few). I am a hardworking man with a goal and time is of the essence (hence my decision to plan my work and work my plan in the bid to be free of any financial obligation to my potential principal within 18-24 months thereafter moving on to other projects). I can understand some people thinking “he is just speaking grammar, wait till he sees how it is…”. To such people I say this; I have been in professions that saw me working in the field in "hands-on" mode, delivering on targets that were quite challenging for years so, I am no stranger to the “streets”. I thrive on challenges. SPECIFICS OF THE IDEAL VEHICLE Brand: A Toyota Camry or Corolla, Honda Civic or Hyundai Accent, Elantra or Sonata and also sedans from the Kia family. (other low- maintenance cost vehicles can be considered also). The vehicle would have been manufactured from 2007 upwards. The sport version of these vehicles would be ideal. It should be painted glossy Black or Silver with Alloy Rims. Leather upholstery would be very welcome (my market informed these specs BUT like the heading reads, these specs are for the "ideal" vehicle. I can make do with a vehicle that does not meet these specs but is not found wanting on two uncompromising criteria viz; Mechanically Superior and Cosmetically Sound. Status: An automatic low mileage Tokunbo. Mechanically sound and aesthetically clean. Easy to look at. All systems (mechanical and electrical) are a go! Please note that the above specifications are for the ideal vehicle. Vehicles that do not meet the specifics but are nonetheless mechanically sound and clean are very welcome. The only condition that cannot be compromised is the Tokunbo state of the vehicle yes, I know, I said this before. Just re-iterating). Recently acquired Naija used can be considered (less than or equal to 3 months post purchase). I am sure we all understand why I am insisting on this. Apologies for the long epistle, just wanted to come out clear. If you are disposed to considering my offer please reach me via 08023735830 or leave your contact (mobile no or email) and I will reach out to you (unfortunately, I am currently not on WhatsApp so may not be able to reach out via that medium). Hoping to hear from you and thanks for your time and consideration. Warmest Regards, A. 1 Like |

If you are finding it hard to meet up as a driver, it's time you get on the two platforms. uber and taxify. From my personal experience, it reduces your downtime and wait time. If a request comes from uber, go offline on taxify and vice versa. No, it's not stressful and you only need 5 seconds to go offline on the other platform. If you find this difficult, e hailing isn't your calling. There are times when the devil wants to be on your matter and requests will enter your phone at the same time from uber and taxify, yes it happened to me this morning as well. I handle it differently, depending on my circumstance. 1. I make sure I accept both requests. I will then call them both and find out politely where they are heading. I naturally like long distance trips, so if I am supposed to take you from ogba to ikeja shrine on uber, while the other taxify rider is going to lekki, "my ac has stopped working" or "i just had a minor accident" is the response the uber rider will get while I am on my way to pick taxify rider. 2. I slide the "arriving now" button on taxify, wait for 3 mins and then cancel the taxify. If you do not wait for 3 mins before cancelling, your activity score will reduce. OR if my cancellation on uber is less than 15%, i will cancel the uber. 3.This morning, i forgot the uber app was on after I had spoken with the taxify client. I accepted the uber request. But i never called the rider. She called 3 times and i refused to pick, so she cancelled by herself. No penalty. Now, while on a trip with uber and you are almost at your destination, go online on taxify once you enter the street of your final destination, or vice versa. Only give uber preference when you are in a surge or boost area. That's the only time uber makes more sense than taxify. Combine the two apps.... Money is money. Don't be loyal to any one app. They haven't done anything for your father and they cannot help your family. Use them and dump them when required. cheers. 29 Likes 2 Shares |

timifakay: Even the classical laws of economics recognize the value of labour in production. All you are talking about is your money, I have asked what is the worth of labour to you, or is labour a valueless resource? Surely there must be some value attributable to the efforts of the driver, what is that effort worth to you? 2million? Remember he can doze off and go under a trailer. If your car is insured, you lose nothing in this instance. As for your driver less car opinion, the cost of a service is most certainly its alternative forgone. Let's see how driveless cars fare in the business. |
