JUNE GROSS EARN with 130k fuel

Net shows 184,366
Subtract fuel 130,000
= 54,000 for the whole month

And yet to deduct:
data of 6k,
call airtime of 5k,
mechanic work of 32k,
tyre gauging of 3k5 in total etc

No profit
I only worked for bolt and fuel station😪😔

This is a truthful summary of what most e-hailing drivers face. You can't come here claiming u made millions without your vehicle suffering for it. If other drivers were as concise as this, it will enable people know how profitable the business is. But if you just tell people the millions you make without the challenges and setbacks you go through, there will still be doubters.

Let's say this side hussle provided u fuel to move around to ur job and other activities.
Gave u money to fix your car.
And funded your little data, airtime and grocery expenses.
How about looking at it from that angle?

Person come talk him experience, dem counter am!

There are Nigerians who "japad" long ago and still hasn't made something tangible. There are still some who went not quite long and are doing well. My cousin stayed for long(years) before getting his green card. Meanwhile, a friend's younger brother got there and got it not quite long!

For this hustle, some make 60k using 12k fuel. Some make 40k using the same fuel. Some make 35k. Trust me, there are still some who make far less!

For the brother complaining, maybe you should join the telegram group to learn the techniques and see if the hustle will improve for you. If it doesn't still, find another hustle.

For me, I don't see any kind of special technique to this.....positioning well isn't a thing now cos you will get order anywhere U are. I still got order recently from ICM in the morning, weekday. It is also common sense that you don't do long distance to PU. It is also common sense that you work from morning till night. (I don't even work till night before the fuel increase, and I'll still make 15 to 20k net) it is also common sense that you avoid traffic as much as you can, by checking your map! Who likes traffic anyways? So what exactly are the special techniques?

Whether you argue it or not, the hustle isn't much favourable since the increase of fuel price!

As I dey always talk, I'm not ready for insults or much arguments.

To cap it all, having a career and a well paying job with full benefits is still far better than driving upandan! I can bet with my last card, that a lot of graduate here never envisaged they would become a driver!

hefelove:

All what you said is right, but from what I’ve learnt from that telegram group, there is more to these special techniques boss, even if you know it all, it might just be 1 single info that will change our ways of earning more

Barbiturate:


So with what you've learnt, are you now making 60k with 12k fuel?

ThatIgboBoy:
Nwanne, nobody is cheering anybody on. Rather it is a thing of concern so much effort was put in for nothing. You may have your ways. But while showing your earnings, also show your troubles. Maintenance, fuel, lastma sorting, commisions. It helps balance things out. No one can claim he drives month to month here without having issues to visit the mechanic. So make we dey chill sometimes. Everything no be fight.

YeyeGbami:
@Tgiirl

From your earnings, it appears that you don't drive enough hours in a day. It is not all trips that bolt sends to you that you must embark on, some trip na waste of time and fuel.

[/b]You need to be on the road for at least 15hrs[b] minimum to see better profit and you have to drive like every other day to have reasonable money left in your hand or bank. Post subsidy*

MoonlightDrive:


no longer 12 hours, car owners on the grind 15 hours, drivers on rental 18 hours, hp drivers 21 hours. The more hours we spend on the road the healthier we become.....
Even top professional athletes after some years start to experience physical decline even with all their routine of physios, nutritionist etc...
we should not over work our body.

MoonlightDrive:
We earn this much yet we invest in buying sub standard tyres.
