wwwtortoise: Positioning simply means being at a place where you would like receive a request. Some drivers still don't understand that requests are high in some areas and low in some areas. e.g Ajah axis in the morning around 6:30am for riders going to Ikoyi and Marina in the evenings for riders going to Lekki axis. 1 Like |

wwwtortoise: Normally i don't usually have time to write long-thing like this, but i felt i should share these knowledge i have concerning d business CHALLENGES YOU WILL FACE AS A JJC IN UBER AND TAXIFY BUSINESS 1. Lastma, Police Vio and Road safety: U will meet them on d road. They will stop you and check your particulars and if u violate any law especially traffic law u go pay fine from d money wey u earn dat day. Make sure u carry all d necessary documents required by police and study all d necessary road signs. e.g No U -Turn, One way, etc. 2. Poor internet network on your phone: Issues with fare calculation. Sometimes network can be very poor. At d end of d trip Uber or Taxify app might not calculate your money well, d rider will end up underpaying u. But u can always report to Uber or Taxify when such error occur. You can take wireless Internet wifi along with u, should Incase u notice no network. 3. Aggressive Lagos drivers, danfo and Okada riders: u will definitely have minor scratches and dents on your car. You cannot dodge them. Okada riders will hit your car and side mirror, expecially in densely populated areas like oshodi, Ketu, Ajangbadi, egbeda, idimu, onigbongbo, idumota, iyana paja, Abule egba, orile, okomaiko, agege, ojota, mile12 and so on. I will suggest u have a standby painter and panel beater that will always fix your car when such thing occurs. 4. Rude riders or passengers: they will talk to u anyhow especially Ladies (Oloshos and runs girls), but you must be professional and do not fight or insult them , that will lead to low rating and permanent deactivation. They are likely to report you and accuse you of what you didn’t do. Eg Dorcas fapson and Taxify driver. Google and read d story, is online. 5. Fraudulent Riders: They will not pay u at end of the trip. They will sha look for a way to avoid paying u.Eg I forgot my ATM card at home, send me your account number I will transfer the money to your account, pls park I want to use the ATM and they come back telling u there is no money in their account, some might even runaway from there. 6. Interpersonal Relationship skills: some riders especially ladies notice say you be handsome driver they would come and sit in the front want you to chat them up. If u be guy wey no get correct yarns. Omo nah low rating O! So u gast dey inform and keep abreast with trends and latest gossips and news in town. That is what they like. If possible u entertain them. ( this advice nah for handsome drivers only) 7. Good customer service: Ensure you treat riders with respect. Speak to them in a polite manner. Don’t be rude and arrogant . Make them feel comfortable And make sure you have mints, pen and paper, Aux cable for music if your car has auxiliary output, savet or tissue paper, umbrella and so on. At any point in time they might want to request for it, and if you don’t have it nah low rating. 8.Outfit and Looks: do not dress like person wey dey suffer. Dress well and look neat always. Ensure to use good perfume and roll on. Brush your teeth well to avoid unnecessary mouth odouriferous smell in d car when A.C is on. Failure to do the following will get u low rating. 9. Armed Robbers, Kidnappers and Ritualist: we heard several cases of Taxify and Uber driver killed and their car snatched away from them. If u must work at night, u gat to be very carefull and shine ya eye wella. If u go "nogere la san" dem go Kpai u. So be vigilant and at alert. 10.Traffic: Traffic jam in Lagos can be on a lock down sometimes. It will surely affect your earnings for d day, you won’t be able to do more trips and it will also exhaust your energy and make you feel tired. Make sure you have pain killer in your car. For headache, leg pain, back pain and so on. 11.Bad Road:There a lot pot holes, ditch and bumps on lagos road. It will certainly depreciate your car faster unless you carried out proper and regular maintenance and servicing on your car. 12.Village people:; If you notice that village people are following u, Don’t underestimate their powers . u gat to always pray before u hit d road for business. You can always subdue their powers and keep them in check with ya prayers be u Muslim or Christian or whatever 13.Low Trip request or Lack of sales: some days can be so dry. U hardly get enough request to make good profit but don’t get discourage. You can covered up for that especially on weekends 14.GPS Navigation: you must learn how to use google map to navigate to riders pick up location and destination or else they will bombard you with low rating. And google map will help improve your knowledge about Lagos road network. 15.Flood: During raining season places like Lekki, Ajah and some part of V.I are usually flooded, u should avoid going there or else water might damage your car engine. When there is heavy rainfall, these places are massively flooded. 16.Fuel Scarcity: During festive period approaching Christmas and New year there is always fuel scarcity. Fares and surge goes up astronomically. Ensure u get storage for fuel, so u don’t run out of fuel to work and profits margin are usually crazy at that time 17. And Finally HEALTH: Take care your of body “health is wealth”. Eat well, get enough rest and take medication if necessary. Don’t over stress yourself. As a JJC In the business your average expectation on weekly earnings should be 50k-80k. At most 90k in a week with surge. ( Before expenses) As u get more experience your earning capacity increases to like 100k-120k Though there are a lots of cars on d platform NOW. So you gat to work smart and harder to succeed 20 Likes 7 Shares |

It's like taxify just like to do rubbish by default. My activity score was 99% before I knew it, it has dropped to 98%, i checked ride's and saw a ride that "driver did not respond" mind you I was using the phone all through and this is not the first time I'm experiencing this "phantom" request. Who else has experienced such? |
Re: If You Are Uber Partner In Lagos, Please Share Your Experience Here by carixma: 7:13pm On Mar 29, 2018 |
Ola4shure: The minimum car model for Taxify is 2003 while uber is 2000 the last time i checked 2004 car model is qualified for Uber and Taxify. To perform well, It is better to register with taxify and Uber. some days trip request are very high on Taxify than Uber and sometimes higher on Uber than Taxify. so inorder not to remain idle while waiting to get trip request you put on Taxify and Uber app which ever-one comes first you accept and switch-off the other on. This will help you get more sales when u do the 2 at d same time. You dont need any other documents, apart from 3 documents they ask you to upload. Your license, registration and proof of insurance. 3 Likes 1 Share |
