What about lazy drivers like bazoo1 , what do you wish them.

Juwonmania:
The thread always make me laugh most time. We are all not in competition with anyone, why the argument every time.
Bolt that built an application and earns million monthly does practically nothing ...
Let's face the hustle and make the doe and leave talks for lady.
Cheerfulgiver, bazo, felicity, and some other top bosses, people here sees you as leaders, pls continue to be one.
Peace.

He didn't tag u or mention u in his post, u latched unto his clear and valid post with empty and discouraging content.

People like Pearl, Cheerfulgiver, Kanuisagoat and others will continue to prosper and raise achievers and winners.
U on the other hand, probably lost your job because of this same laid back, discouraging, unserious and lazy attitude, came back to Bolt work only to disparage. Anybody that follows u will end up a mediocre and a loser.

When full time professionals that have results are talking, all these small-minded, part-time, lazy, ovengang, ignorant, losers crew should be mum.
He even has the patience and effort to still try and breakdown an already simplified analysis but all u are doing is make jest of it.

100k/week is a normal thing and it is sustainable. It is my work and I take it seriously.

My brother it’s the best we keeps on sharing positive so that people can feel encouraged.

I forget to add that her son loaded 2k recharge card without even calling I just saw it and laugh then called him is not necessary but I appreciate it though.

Ghost1994:
I don’t have OT nothing nothing but I just believe in myself.

What’s my strategies?

Monday:- I don’t joke or play with mondays anywhere you are, you’ll make your money.
Tuesday: early in the morning stay within Yaba, Surulere, Sangotedo, Ajah and Lekki….. Afternoon I make sure I work within mainland and I always target long trips.
Wednesday to Thursday: I work anyhow but I usually avoid Ikeja, All Alimosho Local govt., Ikorodu etc…
Friday: I work within the targets
Saturday: Mainland
Sunday: Mainland even if I get island, I’ll use Uber as destination trip back to mainland.

Tips: don’t stay for too long if you’re expecting request move around where surge Dey you can’t spend 400naira fuel to reposition. Imagine today Sunday I see drivers relaxing around Victoria Island in the afternoon there’s mad surge around Yaba, ebutte meta, Surulere etc. with fuel of 300naira you don reposition to this areas.

Contact cheerfulgiver for more tips because me just work on my own oh…

Ghost1994:
Let me be honest here based on my experience on this hustle.

I got my Corolla back then on higher purchase just 2 years ago. Have finished paying for the car though.

I’m responsible for 100% repairs and during my 2years contract, I had accident ooh because I used to work like Jacky I mean i used to sleep on the island sometimes and I used to see heavy earnings 181k sometimes but not reflecting on the account nevertheless I don’t owe my partner.

Problem start arising during the times of repairing I’ll hustle for a month straight and spent almost 100k to fix car. Bushing leakage hub brake pad changing oil and so on just name it.

Suddenly I realized that I’m just paying bills which I’m grateful to god and paying my partner too but Mechanic is getting richer off me. To the extent that I drove my car to mechanic and the mechanic condemned the engine that was how I ended up driving for Moove to gather money buy engine (a story I shared here).

Fortunately for me, I had occasion in Ibadan and one of my friend apprentice drove my car to hit another vehicle just my bumper got scratched but I don’t know that grace of God just found me that day.

Am sorry for my story to be too long but kindly read digest and learn a lesson from it.

Getting to panel beater, (anybody that has been to Ibadan mechanic yard will understand how big it used to be. You’ll find everything you need panel, Rewire, mechanic etc.) naso mechanic approach me say my brake pad is low I say how much him talk say 2k or 1500 I said go and bring it he showed me I told him to change it gave him 5h and he appreciated.

I called mechanic aside and started asking him prices of part Corola part oh. I got shocked brake disc tokumbo 6k for both side . Engine seats 4K each labor is so cheap. Let me stop here before Lagos spare part dealer come for my head.

I started fixing my vehicle in Ibadan afterward or buy part and told them to send it for me which I’ll use 1,500 collect and pay Lagos mechanic max 3k for labor.

Below is what I notice that’s eating our earnings most

1. Mechanic is the major problem here
2. Expensive part dealers
3. Fake part dealers
4. Driver saving culture
5. Still mechanic
6. Type of vehicle you’re using.

You can add yours….

My revelations so far, I’m working on goal to get second vehicle to give person to drive for me.

Who say you can’t build house with Uber money? Tell that person say he or she is stupid. Although not that house in banana island oh but eh get reason why I Dey go Ibadan every 2 months for inspection.

Below is what I’ve saved in this July alone and I shared some screenshots TOO.

Here’s my target a day I jet out
1. I must save 5k aside drop 1k in kolo and whatever remain will still go into savings

2. If I don’t eat at home before leaving or carry food along, i would branch chicken republic buy 2 refuel mill just 1250 naira. Or any nice restaurant but I don’t do this everyday.

3. I set my target and goals on daily basis

Kindly see my post and screenshot as motivation not for lazy I’ve got stories to tell when I finally achieve my goals

Saving app 154k
Cash on hand 70k with 5k each
I lost counting of kolo money cos it’s more than six months have been saving on it. Till December before I could get how much I’m saving.
I don’t need to share my account balance make nobody come for my head.
And that was my monthly earnings

I rest here

Pearl1910:
It's the same thing na... provided u r driving a car that's not yours essentially/sole for the Uber business. And you pay owner of car a certain amount.

Pearl1910:
Can u imagine, $150/week only. Compared to what drivers make.
Later some people will say it's naija drivers that want to turn the world upside down with greed. If only we learn and inform ourselves before we speak.

CheerfulGiver:
I can decide to sleep the whole day today and still make 200k this week.

But sleep is for lazy people, says the Bible. I'm not lazy.

radautoworks:
through Uber but not for private parties to rent to each other. Haba dru

Pearl1910:
On your Uber Partner App and if u registered as a partner driver like I did, u can access that option. It's officially Uber design. they had another company that ran the operations of that pairing drivers and partners. Uber shared info of both partners needing driver and drivers needing partners with them.

As a Fleet Manager, I can see all my drivers, names, car, plate number earnings, even the trips they did, fare and the time, when I log in to my Fleet Manager account online. Its Ubers design. Uber has different websites for drivers and partners. Unlike Bolt

Ogba fa, once saw a mini at osapa for 600k, but it's hard to run from wot u know as son of the soul if dru23 enter hood, we go run em street down to boxers

I need to flash my bumper and fender with this new machine I'm hearing about, that time to visit painter is just the problem here

Pearl1910:
U may be right but Uber operates differently in different countries even within America, they have different features and modes of operation in the different states.
This Rentals style in Nigeria is an intentional plan and design from the beginning.

Pearl1910:
I saw the potentials when Uber came to Naija and I dived in. I have been in the business in different roles since inception, and I say, any driver that takes this serious, and adds sense to it can grow financially in a very short time. I use to casually say "this business is clean blood money"

Pearl1910:
Let me speak for Uber Nigeria which I know.

Uber initially had a program that paired drivers that needed cars with partners that needed drivers. Officially.

As a Partner, from your account u can manage your fleet, see all your driver's performance, the trips they took and their daily earnings.

Infact if u want to go the Fleet Manager route, all ur drivers' weekly payment enters your bank account as the partner. Then u and driver will do counter balance as the case may be.

All those functions and systems you are referring to are in place. So we can say without a doubt that Uber Nigeria is aware, designed and sanctions Rentals.

northbird:
Bolt, the undisputable king of ehailing apps.

The moment you taste Bolt, you won't want to go back to any other app.

The grind this week has been easy peasy. No stress whatsoever. And the cheddar is rolling in.

They now control the market, I mean the audacity with which they set surge across mainland on Tuesday & Wednesday was epic.

Any trip na surge. Even riders were asking me. What's wrong, why is it so high? . I'm like today is Sallah now

Kaeboy:
Ah! Omo! U guys making mad money in this business in Lagos oo. Do abuja partners make up to such too?

BAZ001:

CheerfulGiver:

CheerfulGiver:
