Please any tips for anyone trying to start new on indrive with my car

Djdamian:
Let me address your comments because you seem more reasonable compared to the other two people who mentioned me.

My decision to exit the business has nothing to do with Pearl's daily net profit from E-hailing, so let's clarify this upfront.

I believe everyone can succeed in the E-hailing business; I'm not validating or invalidating Pearl's statements. My point is that people shouldn't feel upset or frustrated by his comments or use them as a benchmark for their own earnings. Ultimately, success in this business hinges on the type of vehicle and strategic positioning, and your ability to be smart. Different vehicles and strategies yield different results, so I can't confirm or deny his statements because everyone's circumstances vary.

My reasons for leaving the business boil down to two main factors.

Firstly, it's challenging to find trustworthy partners in this business as an investor. No matter how transparent and open you intend to be, there are always individuals who exploit the situation. The last person I collaborated with almost renewed my faith in the business, but by then, it was too late. Lovely guy he is!

Secondly and most importantly, the returns on investment in this business are no longer viable. The high cost of vehicles—imagine purchasing a 7 million Naira vehicle and then earning 40,000 to 50,000 Naira weekly with driver insulting and playing on your intelligence.
Moreover, the time it takes to recover your capital, let alone make a profit, is too long. There are other investments offering similar or better returns within a shorter timeframe.

Regarding your question about if I have done well in the business, I can't definitively say. E-hailing was intended to diversify my income streams rather than serve as a primary source, so the earnings were primarily used to cover incidental expenses.

Funny how Donbrowser responded to a post he was not quoted or mentioned as if he has the sole right and registered trademark to be an imbec!le and a fool🤣🤣🤣

The thing pain you sha.. Tamurege

Djdamian:
Which one are you?

You deny asking people to lease their vehicles to you,

You claim to be a TikToker,

You say you're a digital marketer,

But you've never mentioned being an investor, so why are you here as well?

Everyone is aware of everything you listed up there. I'm here because I'm a driver. Wbu?

Have you settled for gossips?

So the mods now change Obi.diots to Obi supporters. Let me check Batidiots

Three of you are cretins. U guys didn't completely form in the womb before birth.
Don we know, I will not be surprised if ur head is also shaped like that of an imbecilic m0ron.
So thinking logically is a painful adventure.
Next time u feel d urge to quote me, gather urself very well, arrange ur thought process and properly file ur evidence before u press quote.

Omoapena:
Is he driving on bolt now?

If he's no longer a partner, why is he here to interfere in driver's matter?

He should be a driver then.

Itsrm:
What are you smoking?

You think it's not affecting him? When he logs out of nairaland, he will drop the act he's putting up online and face reality like the rest of us

Normal levels

Djdamian:
You really sound like one of the trouble makers here who likes arguing without facts or data. This raises the question of whether you're part of those individuals using a different moniker to cause nuisance here.

Pearl's comments about making 80k net with 20k spent on fuel shouldn’t be your concern, whether it’s true or not. I don't think you need to be so upset or worried about it. It doesn't imply that other drivers who earn less are lazy or falling behind in life.

Everyone has their own way of making things work for them.

You just supported pearl too without proof of you doing the same figure.

Checkings:
All of you guys defending this government won't last, I give you one more year your hypocrisy will fade. You think say e no go affect u ba? Just wait

You're very stùpíd. Me that told you fuel price will increase and the person that said price will reduce, who is defending the government? You better park your car and enter site with me if Uber no pay you again.

Welz:
I am well rested, let Obi's name too rest from your mouth(hand). it is now generally agreed he will never be president.

I wasn't in the WhatsApp Group where it was discussed

Welz:
you have waited since yesterday for someone to quote you as they increased fuel price and no one did, so you chose the closest thing that looked like a quote to you and replied..you really need help, serious one

If anyone should call me out for fuel price increment, the person is only fọ̀ọ́ling himself. I have always maintained that even if refineries worked, fuel will not come down but Mr Logic thought otherwise.

Rest

Damn

Gabby, you still dey this political hustle

Ekiti was a former capital developed by the English and Portuguese Colonial masters. Ekiti state is also enjoying the monopoly of working port in Nigeria.

I've seen some bad reviews about gbovo transport. Have you used them before? I heard there are some companies that do car swap, anyone with link to such?

Gbovo is highly reliable and very considerate. I referred a friend to them and he's extremely pleased with their service. The weekly payment may be high but you can't undermine the peace of mind that comes with driving to own a Tokumbo car.
I think you should check autohub for swap but their conditions fit make you run sha

Barbiturate:
I didn't ask the guy about his insurance. I have a valid 3rd party insurance and it was on indrive I picked the rider

It's the guy's 3rd party insurance that will work for you. All he had to do was to call and inform them about the accident.

Hello good people,

I have decided to do e-hailing business with LAGRIDE. I want to pay the 700k advance payment to get their car. I learnt i will be paying 10K daily remittance for the hire purchase agreement. Aside this daily 10k, apart from their comission on each trip i make on their app(Lagride), what other payment am i expected to pay daily?

I will appreciate a thorough explanation regarding the prons and cons, and ways around it to run it successfully. I am aware of the teething period in every business, no negative energy needed. It is what i have made up my mind to do, i only need some more hints about how to run it successfully since i will still be using Uber, Bolt, and In-drive app with it.

I will advice you go for other options instead of Lagride. That job seem like slavery work (a Nigerian car with lengthy repayment). With your 700k down-payment, you can get a Suzuki car from Moove (100k downpayment). Alternatively, you can also beef your budget to 1Million naira and get Gbovo Hire-Purchase for Honda Civic or Toyota Camry 2008 (tokunbo).

I believe those are better options. Best of luck.

kamala and her sycophants are looking for any slight opportunity to invade Russia! Why? This is why they don't want Trump because he doesn't subscribe to wars. They want to flood In NATO and bring Russia to it knees for what reason? It's left for the America people to see beyond their nose and elect Trump the master strategist. Trump will stop this nonsense within 24 hours no cap! we know him and we trust his capabilities and sound judgment. #MAGA2024.

Who killed an Iranian general?

Who can run this for 60k?

Blackbishop:
E be like say you never jam mad one who will ask the madam the plate number and color of the car on phone. No just jam some mad ones

That's impossible bro except there's an hint about the car before. All they care about is your document and their pocket

BAZ001:
Your friend hand no pure. If you do legit job you will by car in your name without any fear of police.
Like godfather… like godson…

I also have a property in my mother's name because I have a mother to cherish and idolize. Can we same the same about yoù? The one you've publicly declarẹd as a mother here has only shown you how to leave prison as inheritancẹ for your kids.
How can 2 women faìl over your life? Your biological and borrọ́wed mother? That's pathetic bro.

mamman40:
Ah! Don.
The madam num definitely dey d docs na ....but how will you feel, if u are d seller, always entertaining calls from police ...u go tire na.
U na guy, u go understand...but u gatz wear woman shoe to think this through.

You're still a learner...
My friend bought a car in his mother's name, police will never ask you questions beyond seeing the correct documents and your driver's license. Only if the car has been reported as stolen

mamman40:
That's the question I have bin evading from those folks....the name on the docs is a female name, my ID card na another name...how I wan take ans their theories.

If I ans yes, las las na to call the seller confirm.
If I ans no, wahala go full ground

Na my madam motor. Find a madam to always pick your call and affirm she owns the car, simple as that.

Danniee:
Pls is Toyota Corolla 2009 good for Bolt/Uber?

Yes

olisaEze:
Amazing! So how exactly did the Navy defend the budgeting of a presidential yacht that it was allowed to fly unopposed till the press got a hold of it? And how many other agencies and arms of the govt are also bleeding the country dry in the name of the president?? These things are why the press is called the fourth estate and not because of brown envelopes.

The yatch is always included in all Navy budgets since the days of Jonathan, approval and purchase is what people should have waited for.

superCleanworks:
I have a feeling that it was Seyi Tinubu that brought up this idea

Indeed...
