Guys in Lagos,

What internet access is the best for a driver?

Chucsmoore, digest my comment very well. I never said drivers need to work for 10 years to have their own cars. When ehailing first started you hardly see a car owner driving but now around 50% of the drivers are car owners and this pace is increasing on daily basis. In years to come most drivers will be driving their own cars.
I also started this work 2 years as a driver driving for someone but its another story today. I will repeat this, the weekly rental with drop as low as 15k. Then all those claiming big madam will start driving their own car or abandon the business.

That's where you get the idea wrong. Nobody is claiming big madam they are only protecting their investments and unhappy they are not making money because of the drivers attitude. See why not buy a car and give it to a driver and then let him mess up your investment let's see whether you'll pat him on the back.

It's simply called financial knowledge. Knowing when to exit a business, restretegize and come back with better new ideas.its not about big madam as that thought is myopic.

Oga I wonder why you dont get it. Uber na investment. So also LT. Most Uber cars are more expensive than those LTS yet they make more money. Whether they deliver to the owners is another thing entirely.

Best thing that can happen to transportation is for a govt to give us ability to invest into public transport franchise.

Loving you boss... Dats d spirit, truth b told the business is flopping, I guess excessive puttin of cars by partner is one of d reason, supply over demand is already shifting the market to disequilibrium. My advice to partner think well or u will end up selling ur cars far below cost price.


Price of corollas are now dropping due to the rate that naija used are up for sale almost everywhere in Lagos.

Dead corolla cars lol....

Nice one, but if supply is not more then demand, why are drivers complaining of low request? I guess positioning abi? Why do taxify always remind drivers of presumed ending of the month traffic? Transportation is just like food and its a necessity, but mind u, there are alternatives. In this business there use to be a time back to back is certain and one can't make below 15k, no matter how bad the day goes... Let's face reality what happened to the constant pasting and money challenge the platform used to witness? Just pray gokada won't do more damage with time and better start creating exit strategic

Gokada is already doing slight damage.

Naaa, Gokada would have little or no effect on uber/taxify, I believe they have their own riders, some people won't give up comfort for anything.

GAZZUZZ:


I like your seriousness. This is very delicate, ensure you get a problem free car (not very easy at ur 1.1offer) ensure you insure it comprehensively in your name.

please let me know your offer
Re: If You Are Uber Partner In Lagos, Please Share Your Experience Here by frugal(m): 10:25pm On Nov 20, 2018
GAZZUZZ:


Rental will never drop that low. The average price of an Ehailing car (2nd hand value) is about 700k owners will rather sell and focus on other opportunities than collect 15k.

in January 2018 there was a flood of investors.

in January 2019 there will be a great pull out of investors.
Couldn't agree more.

Gokada, all things being equal will have little or no effect on Uber and Taxify but in this case, all things ain't equal...bad roads and heartbreaking traffic jam will always give them the advantage.

I've had riders who ended a trip and continued the journey with bike bcus of traffic.

That's the story u can tell the less entrepreneural buddies and not us who are practising It in the real world. It's called mind game. Financial knowledge without a well balanced account is like dreaming on bicycle.Your enjoying uber today ,imagining their huge profit is cos they invested huge funds. Every business needs that finance and not just knowledge to grow it .if for financial knowledge, many young guys u see driving uber won't be doing.
Me enjoying uber, LOL. i dont do uber. i only do taxify. Have u ask yourself how taxify started. The brains behind taxify Nigeria started from a very small office with little capital back in 2015. within the space of 3 years They ve grown so big that they are giving uber run for their money. The success of a business is not determined by its financial capacity but by mental capacity of the brains involve. i have seen companies ( private, national and multi-national that invested alot of money into their business but ended bankrupt. knowledge is more important than finance. i am talking from experience.

You remember when the 3mb was undergoing diagnosis? While Uber and Taxify drivers were all stuck in traffic in different parts of the state, Gokada and MaxGo were busy making money.
