TokyoBulls:
There are challenges but the business surges on. Some of us are increasing the number of cars we have on Uber weekly and we are 'business minded' too. Perhaps all we need is better alignment between partners and drivers and a twist of the operational model. I do not see the 20% commission model working any longer. Drivers seem to want to have better freedom and more control, hence, the rental option. Also, ensure you have a solid, enforceable contract with your drivers and build a mutually beneficial playing field.

And PLEASE, avoid greed. Uber is not a 'quick money' scheme. Your RoI on the car may be between 30% to 50% per annum if well managed. Hire purchase and rental are much better options provided you get good drivers. The quality of your drivers and your management determines the results. You are better off building scale than depending on only one or two cars if you see it as business and not a means of employment for you. If your net income (after depreciation, maintenance, servicing, fuelling, toll, etc) is N10,000 to N20,000 per car, you are doing VERY well and scale will give you the return you are looking for.

Could it be a function of your route or location?
How frequently, say per week, is business this slow?

Plz house which company car issurance will Uber accept ? I will appreciate your replies

Use AXA Mansard. They claim good rates and they respond to claims on time. Most insurance companies do not respond on time and sometimes they do not even pay you because they will ask for tonnes of documents and proofs.

Thanks.

Pls what's the difference between Uber select and Uber x? I don't understand what they mean by "Lagos only." Or is uber select the VIP option?

CuteTj:

Thanks.

Uber Select is the luxury ride option I.e cars with more prestige and more recent models

UberX is the regular older model cars with older specs

The "Lagos Only" means that Uber Select is currently available in Lagos only at the moment

All that was in the link I posted which obviously, you didn't read
