I am considering getting a car (skoda octavia 2010) to start this Uber/bolt/indriver biz and I have a few questions that I haven't found answers to after randomly going through the pages here. Questions are:
1. Shey the car good for this business? Won't make sense to spend the bulk of my money fixing it intermittently. Also, would the car qualify for their requirements?
2. I know the best is to do this business personally. However, what's the estimated weekly income if I get a partner?
3. What are the basic tips a newbie should take note of?
I don't mind if you just drop links to the answers.
How much is the skoda and what's your budget for a car suitable for the bizness?
You can chat me up on WhatsApp let me.assist you O8o 3 5 13. 2. 87 .6

SUGGESTIONS NEEDED 1- Best route for newbie to start from? 2- Route to Avoid by any means necessary? 3- How to know long distance booking in INDRIVE when a rider request? 4- Key things to consider in order to avoid problems on the road? 5 - which area should I focus more in mainland
Personally , na me get car I just need extra income to the use maintain my car and pay some few bills. Considering I also drive to work and carry people too.
6-Can Sunday work earning be enough for me? 7- how to know short distance request on INDRIVE Please any suggestions will be appreciated alot. To help me as I start this weekend. THANKS
You do not want to quit your Job and focus on Bolt?
First and foremost you’d need to keep it in mind that CAT is a long time recognized premium specialty brand. , they manufacture mostly niche professional tools and gadgets. The product I’m showing you was manufactured in and imported from the UK. The quality of the product is top of the line and it will last you for ages with normal use.
CAT batteries guarantee you 10 years of use.There are still better and more expensive brands that will last 10 times longer than the Solite battery in the market but most of our people usually buy what’s cheapest even though it could end up exploding and burning up their vehicles while they sleep at night.
You speak of power banks, I myself have used more than 10 different power banks since they started being available in the market. We all know how long they last especially when we are buying brands like NewAge or Oraimo. Some even cheaper ones cleverly put in sand bags or ‘dud’ batteries inside their packs just to increase the product’s weight and deceive the buyers. There are mobile power banks in the market that last for donkey years and are rugged too. It’s still the price that scares people off notwithstanding that the premium brand won’t disappoint or explode even after donkey years of continuous use.
Lets not even go into details concerning all these yeye Chinese mass produced cigarette lighter plug in type of tyre inflators. I’ve bought two of them before for between N10k to N15k each at different times and they didn’t even last up to 2 years before just deciding not to function again, and I’m a very careful person. I just took it out of the boot to use one day and it didn’t answer me. That’s how I was left stranded. They mostly spoil in silence and disappoint you when you need them the most.
CAT products are built tough and precise to guarantee that they last for years even with the roughest of use. This product I’m showing you here might be expensive . . . Yes, is agree, but it’s a premium product with a bulletproof guarantee for years upon years of faithful usage.
Look at the products below and their prices, I’m sure if I purchase these ones tomorrow and bring them to your notice you’d shrug your shoulders and scratch your head wondering if I’m not aware of Solite and Oraimo products that can be found easily in the market meanwhile the right type of consumer with a discerning eye for detail and quality will immediately rush to buy the CAT brand knowing fully well that the rewards are lined up to be reaped in the long run.
Thank you for accepting. But let's be clear this product is a jump start and not a replacement battery. This product can't replace the portable power bank we carry around and I can charge my phone in my car. I can use a generator to power or charge appliances. This guy cant patch a punctured tyre. Only to inflate back to gauge. Offcourse an average tubeless tyre can go miles on a low pressure until u reach a vulcanizer or a safe place except it is badly punctured. So if your tyre is punctured u have to change to spare or fix the damage.
What I am saying in essence is, for town drivers the only thing this product is useful for is to jumpstart a car in d event battery goes dead. So why will we buy that value for 100k when it happens just once in 2years. Although, I agree it is a very important device to have. But I think it's more suited for country drivers, outskirt dwellers, construction, event planners, picnic, adventure and tour travellers in desert, wilderness, forest and deserted places who will utilise all it's offerings and features and get value for their money.
If u give me a CAT car battery billed to last 10yrs for 150k I know that's a produt with value.
I been think say the underground dungeon where dem send you go fit hold you for at least 10yrs but e be like say you climb fence escape well done
I love how all the ‘hustling for years but still broke’ Uber drivers keep attacking me on this thread, I’m just happy exposing your kind of people to others here. All of una dey the same failure WhatsApp group
At least the newbies here can now know who ‘to not use’ as mentors concerning the hustle

Happy Sales by the way
Did you see the price of the CAT replacement battery above? Did you see the price of their power bank too? Only the battery alone from CAT costs more than the product I’m selling to you and put it in mind that the same technology of cells used in their vehicle battery is the exact type used in their jumpstarter and power banks. The same 10 years of guaranteed usage for their vehicle batteries is the same span of time you can use their power banks and this their jump starter without issues.
If you only need a jumpstart for using Solite batteries every once in 2 years (that’s if the battery lasts it’s expected run) then this product can cover you for at least the next 5 instances of your battery suddenly failing. That’s 10 years if guaranteed use in case of that specific emergency. Now we are ruling out other scenarios which might occur along the way like your vehicle battery being drained due to recharging your phones, listening to your radio for longer moments while it’s parked and switched off or a stubborn parasitic drain and other more serious issues like a failing alternator which usually creeps up on vehicle owners without warning.
You speak of using a generator to recharge your phone in your home, why waste your fuel everyday when you can just quickly go to your vehicle and bring out this product to recharge your phones and laptops for free for up to ten years? People install electrical inverters in their homes for such reasons. How much do you think installing an inverter will set you back? The batteries for the inverter alone can set you back N100k each (and these ones won’t even be guaranteed to retain proper charge after up to 3 years of continuous use) not to even talk of the controller. And you’d need at least 2 batteries for a start. How much have you spent already? Yes you can still fire up your tiger generator with one liter of fuel for the same purpose but people who install these solar inverters know why they did so even though the tiger generator didn’t cost up to a quarter of the total installation fee for their setup.
How much is the Solite battery today? Highest N25k and it lasts for 2 years of normal use so using that brand for 10 years will cost you N250,000 (without calculating the cost of inflation) while I can buy this cat battery above today for N150k and save more than N100k in the long run while watching you buy battery after battery after battery at increasing prices after multiple disappointments and dissatisfaction.
There is a bigger picture somewhere in here that you’re still failing to see. I still admit that the prices for their products are high, but normally you can’t compare aba made Tonny Hilfinger to a Giorgio Armani product.
This jumpstarter is a 3 in 1 product comprising of an air compressor, battery pack and engineered to work together hence the price. There are other products in the market that are only jumpstarters or power banks or tyre inflators but buying them each separately will still set you back far more than the price of this product especially when you’re going for premium brands and quality so in a way this product is subsidized for consumer use.
It isn’t only useful for people who travel, it’s useful for everyone. Even if you don’t have a vehicle you can still use it to help stranded people and charge a fee. I hear it’s now N1k (with ‘abeg’) to help a stranded motorist jumpstart a vehicle while you still take it home to use as a portable power source. If you drive a vehicle that monitors it’s TPS sensors in real time you’d appreciate always being able to top off your tyres and get rid of the pesky notice it displays on your instrument clusters anytime the pressure in one of your tyres goes down over time.
You know wetin I dey use bolt app do now? I dey use dem check where traffic dey before I start driving out, when I am hustling, and when I'm closing for the day. Much respect, baba.
TheModerator, me personally I have nothing against you. I just didn’t support the way you came in here and tried to pick a fight with cheefulgiver. That stuff wasn’t proper so I had to step in. Your digging and posting my names and pictures here didn’t move me an inch because I am a very transparent person and have nothing against anybody and I also have a belief that nobody has anything against me. I still sleep easy at night and post on this thread and others as I used to before. You didn’t achieve anything other than giving my moniker a name and face which ultimately endeared me to some members here who can now feel more comfortable engaging me in business and otherwise
To me, you are my paddi, I don’t know you but you toiled and sweated overnight and overtime to get to know me . . . It’s okay. I appreciate the exposure. I am not against you for doing it because it’s nothing to me. You should engage me normally as I can be very reasonable most times. I don’t like the way you now only come here to be posting YouTube videos for me to watch. Most of the songs you show me to see are old songs that I’ve watched over 5 years ago. I don’t like what you’ve been reduced to. Post normally and make people learn from you here. That’s what this thread was initially designed for. Not for fighting or trolling.
See the cheerfulgiver you were try to pick a fight with, he came here some weeks ago saying that bolt is dead, Uber has since been buried and Indriver is the new goose in town that lays the proverbial golden egg , when he came out to make that proclamation many people here laughed at him, some were trying to understand why someone would make such a statement. He then started dropping his tips and tricks which some started to follow. It didn’t even take up to a month later for InDriver to rebrand their company and make their services more user friendly and even changed their name. Then today 90% of drivers here are calling the same InDriver they once sneered at their new bae . Can’t you see the pattern?
I may be loudmouthed, irritating or insulting but I always have a reason for this behavior. It is usually triggered by something. I am not too big to apologize, saying sorry is hard but I do it without blinking because I am not a proud person.
All I’m trying to say is that I am apologizing to you for the way I castigated you earlier. It’s sad seeing you only posting one or two liners and YouTube videos these days. I will like you to engage us here with your original account which you’ve kept hidden. Forget about this TheModerator own you created to troll cheerfulgiver or me. It’s a waste of your time.
I once told you that there was nothing you could do to make me run away but today see how things are. I’m still here aren’t I?
As I said, I don’t even know who you are so how can I have anything against you. Try to forget trolling me. You can’t achieve anything from it. Instead just be yourself and try to help others. Stop coming here to say that what others are doing is a waste of time. Instead stay away from the thread. These people are here to get ideas and learn how to maximize their profits in the limited time they have on the job. People who come here to demoralize them are not helping matters and should stop.
I’m not only speaking to you but others who have also attacked me saying Uber driving is a waste of time. Do you expect these people to leave their vehicles at home and go and steal? Please try to encourage them instead of ‘winching’ them. It won’t take a hair off your head. There are people who continue to progress in this same business you’re denigrating everyday.
Once again TheModerator, you be my guy oh make we no dey quarrel over nothing. Me and you are not dragging anything so let’s try to get along okay.
saysugar: Pls I want to know if solara can be okay for taxify , reliable? Fuel? Engine
Solara is a Coupe... Just Two doors. Bolt won't accept it. But if can make do with it on Indrive. I'm not sure though because Indrive has improved a lot and they may not accept somethings like before. Try your luck sha
Bidding on indrive is not generally advisable as a driver. Indrive passengers are now wised up, they are understanding the app rapidly, so, they will continue to reject higher biddings to what they (riders) are proposing. Biddings could only work at late night, and all of us should know why. When I see a ride that the fair is obviously tampered with and passenger bids low for it, I ignore while chilling where I parked. There is no way you will not get good order where you are parked, no matter how long you've been waiting. A driver who's bidding for rides will get frustrated cos it will continuously be declined, cos other drivers are rushing the fare like flies. I no dey even bother myself on indrive or do fastest finger stuff, my ride will come for sure and it will be easy and peaceful. If I see order with low fare and long distance destination, I would rather pick it and accept it like that than bidding, and that depends on where I am located at that moment. As a boss wey you be, abeg dey use indrive. You will see the difference. Maybe na because me I still dey have that feeling of a newbie sha, cos I was not making huge gross during my bolt time, that's why I'm contented with what I've been making on indrive. Imagine someone wey dey gross 50k-60k on bolt on full day work, make he/she come settle for 35k gross on full day work on indrive, him go dey pissed off like what is this 35k gross for? But we wey we no like wahala, we are okay with 25k gross (18k net), 30k gross (22k net), 35k gross (26k net) on indrive on full day work. Na so I see am, boss. Indrive makes sense, if na the bidding wey dey make you disregard indrive, abeg no dey do bidding again. Just a daily target is the way to run indrive. Cos as people dey crave for this bolt still dey surprise me, I no go lie. Cos na this same indrive I don dey use for almost 3 months without bolt and I'm not having any regret at all. It is well sha. Much respect, boss.

Send Cheerfulgiver or Glithronix a mail. They're the current special advisers on Indrive matters.
Although bolt will give you basic knowledge, the thing is becoming whack now. Even me that drove for like a week, I noticed each time rider cancels like this, my driver score will drop by 1. In total I lost 5% of it within 2 days.
Advantage of Bolt is that it is a bit less complex compared to Indrive. You will see clearly the area they are taking you to rather than on Indrive you need to use some special tools like Google maps and knowledge of Lagos roads to know where you're going.
But forget if you a calm and smart, you'd be fine starting with Indrive. You will learn along the way. On Indrive, you can decide to cancel a trip without consequences.
First and foremost you’d need to keep it in mind that CAT is a long time recognized premium specialty brand. , they manufacture mostly niche professional tools and gadgets. The product I’m showing you was manufactured in and imported from the UK. The quality of the product is top of the line and it will last you for ages with normal use.
Solite batteries cost about N25k, but to buy a brand like Trane or Everstart battery you must hold at least N40k. CAT batteries guarantee you 10 years of use.There are still better and more expensive brands that will last 10 times longer than the Solite battery in the market but most of our people usually buy what’s cheapest even though it could end up exploding and burning up their vehicles while they sleep at night.

I just took it out of the boot to use one day and it didn’t answer me. That’s how I was left stranded. They mostly spoil in silence and disappoint you when you need them the most.
Then about tyres, you know you can’t compare Chinese tyres to premium ones. Double king is in the market so is Michelin. They are both tyres but their prices, pedigree and durability are miles apart. With N25k you will get a new double king tyre but you must hold at least N60k to get just 1 new Michelin tyre today.
CAT products are built tough and precise to guarantee that they last for years even with the roughest of use. This product I’m showing you here might be expensive . . . Yes, is agree, but it’s a premium product with a bulletproof guarantee for years upon years of faithful usage.

Bro, you know what I see, the people here are not the right customers for this thing. They look like it but they are actually not. If they are, you won't write more than two sentences and they will be asking you for how to buy. There is money but the reason why people are not asking you to send ordering info is because they've weighed their options and they have less need for it.
Pearl has rightly said it. The people that will actually spend that kind of money on it are people who will constantly need it. A typical user here may not even need to use it for once in six months. So, why should he invest 120k on it when he can buy the one that is 25k or 30k.
There are vulcanizers everywhere. If I have a jumpstart cable in my car, I can easily get help within the city.
What am I saying? Re-evaluate your marketing strategies
Selling is not as difficult in the right environment.
Truth is nobody here cares about any brand, so long it works. The people that brand stuff can work for are people who have been in dire need and a particular brand Fu*ked them up. How many people here have had such experience?
I'm not trying to pull your biz down but as someone who also have interest in sales and marketing, I'm just giving sincere advice. Re-evaluate your strategies...!

What am I selling? Vehicle Tyre inflator? Vehicle Engine jumpstarter? Mobile Power banks? this is a thread where transporters gather . . . Transporters who use vehicles everyday to make a living, my brother WHERE/WHO ELSE ARE THE BEST PEOPLE TO MARKET SUCH PRODUCTS TO? I still say it, the price is high . . . Yes, but so is it’s quality. That’s the only thing you can have against this product and not that the people on this thread are the wrong demographic to market to.
My brother, I’m just doing some product sensitization on this thread. If someone here decides to buy or not it won’t stop my selling out every single unit of this product before Friday. I am just hoping one person from here can get one unit. I’ve always sold this product on nairaland since the inception of its procurement by our establishment but this is the first time I’m posting its advert on this Uber thread.
This thread has been up for years, why I haven’t advertised it here before I can’t really say. Maybe it’s because I’ve always sold out the product just by posting it on other threads alone.
This is the same way there was sensitization for people to dump using mobil XHP 20w50 for their tokumbo vehicles, some still kick against it till today but some others have seen reason to utilize such brands. There’s Castrol, Liquimoly, etc 5w20 and 5w30 up to 5w40 and more people keep seeing the need to stop using the heavyweight conventional oils in their vehicles today. When did the sensitization start?
This is the first time I advertised here and I naturally expected some people to push against it due to its price alone. I know if it was it’s durability or functionality nobody in their right senses would question it.
A good salesman’s job is to be able to carry fire into hell and still make his sales
So naturally I’m ready to write epistles here to let people see the need to have an emergency unit with them. Some will see and some won’t. That’s how the world works. If nobody can buy it now I’m certain some others can buy it when next some are brought into the country. That’s how business is.
You say there are vulcanizers everywhere right? Have you ever had a tyre emergency at 9pm? How many vulcanizers will you see at their spots to help you? Even the ones that agree will charge you nothing less than N3k because it’s after working hours.
You spoke of having jumper cables right? Do you know that even with my own jumper cables most motorists are scared of assisting me with a jump start either because they don’t have the time, they don’t trust the location I’m requesting the help at, they are just ignorant of the functionality of the cables or they are afraid that my alternator will also kill their own battery during the help?
Gentlelife50: Na waoo, some people like arguments sha.
Remember that only yesterday you used your own mouth to say that you’d ignore me or my posts for life . . . it’s not up to 24hrs now oh
I understand why you made that statement sha, I don’t hold it against you. I understand the way some certain truths in my prior post hit you way below the belt thereby pushing you to make such a statement.
I don’t know anything about you except maybe your name or hustle. I have no reason to be arguing with you . . . Mr. gentle, over anything. If you say you or nobody here can buy my product then rest. I know it’s a possibility (albeit a sad one) but it won’t ultimately affect me in any way.
The only person to lose is YOU who can not afford it. So what’s my business there?
Solara is a Coupe... Just Two doors. Bolt won't accept it. But if can make do with it on Indrive. I'm not sure though because Indrive has improved a lot and they may not accept somethings like before. Try your luck sha

I am considering getting a car (skoda octavia 2010) to start this Uber/bolt/indriver biz and I have a few questions that I haven't found answers to after randomly going through the pages here. Questions are:
1. Shey the car good for this business? Won't make sense to spend the bulk of my money fixing it intermittently. Also, would the car qualify for their requirements?
2. I know the best is to do this business personally. However, what's the estimated weekly income if I get a partner?
3. What are the basic tips a newbie should take note of?
I don't mind if you just drop links to the answers.

The doggedness of a sales person. It's true even if someone will not buy now, someone may see it later and buy
Conner44: TheModerator, me personally I have nothing against you. I just didn’t support the way you came in here and tried to pick a fight with cheefulgiver. That stuff wasn’t proper so I had to step in. Your digging and posting my names and pictures here didn’t move me an inch because I am a very transparent person and have nothing against anybody and I also have a belief that nobody has anything against me. I still sleep easy at night and post on this thread and others as I used to before. You didn’t achieve anything other than giving my moniker a name and face which ultimately endeared me to some members here who can now feel more comfortable engaging me in business and otherwise
To me, you are my paddi, I don’t know you but you toiled and sweated overnight and overtime to get to know me . . . It’s okay. I appreciate the exposure. I am not against you for doing it because it’s nothing to me. You should engage me normally as I can be very reasonable most times. I don’t like the way you now only come here to be posting YouTube videos for me to watch. Most of the songs you show me to see are old songs that I’ve watched over 5 years ago. I don’t like what you’ve been reduced to. Post normally and make people learn from you here. That’s what this thread was initially designed for. Not for fighting or trolling.
See the cheerfulgiver you were try to pick a fight with, he came here some weeks ago saying that bolt is dead, Uber has since been buried and Indriver is the new goose in town that lays the proverbial golden egg , when he came out to make that proclamation many people here laughed at him, some were trying to understand why someone would make such a statement. He then started dropping his tips and tricks which some started to follow. It didn’t even take up to a month later for InDriver to rebrand their company and make their services more user friendly and even changed their name. Then today 90% of drivers here are calling the same InDriver they once sneered at their new bae . Can’t you see the pattern?
I may be loudmouthed, irritating or insulting but I always have a reason for this behavior. It is usually triggered by something. I am not too big to apologize, saying sorry is hard but I do it without blinking because I am not a proud person.
All I’m trying to say is that I am apologizing to you for the way I castigated you earlier. It’s sad seeing you only posting one or two liners and YouTube videos these days. I will like you to engage us here with your original account which you’ve kept hidden. Forget about this TheModerator own you created to troll cheerfulgiver or me. It’s a waste of your time.
I once told you that there was nothing you could do to make me run away but today see how things are. I’m still here aren’t I?
As I said, I don’t even know who you are so how can I have anything against you. Try to forget trolling me. You can’t achieve anything from it. Instead just be yourself and try to help others. Stop coming here to say that what others are doing is a waste of time. Instead stay away from the thread. These people are here to get ideas and learn how to maximize their profits in the limited time they have on the job. People who come here to demoralize them are not helping matters and should stop.
I’m not only speaking to you but others who have also attacked me saying Uber driving is a waste of time. Do you expect these people to leave their vehicles at home and go and steal? Please try to encourage them instead of ‘winching’ them. It won’t take a hair off your head. There are people who continue to progress in this same business you’re denigrating everyday.
Once again TheModerator, you be my guy oh make we no dey quarrel over nothing. Me and you are not dragging anything so let’s try to get along okay.
well done
