Goodmorning and happy Sunday.



I remembered when I tried correcting a driver on this thread, some lashed out at me.
Let me give few tips...
1. Greeting your rider should be a must, if your rider replies or not shouldn't be your business.
If your rider replies, good...
2. Take little things into consideration. There are things you can't really control, such as nature. When your rider isn't comfortable, maybe he or she got cold, catarrh, sneezing/coughing, it's wise to show a bit of care, offer a wipe to use, ask if he or she needs water to drink, 50/100naira from your pocket won't kill you.
3. Don't start a conversation except your rider initiates it, if your rider initiates it, know how to maintain professionalism.

4. Use a mild body spray and airfreshner.

There are so many more...


Well, that's a pix of me for those who wanna have an idea how I look like...




Nice tips. Some uber short trips are worth N300 net, in that case buying N100 bottle water for rider will keeeeee me trowey, but I can ask if he or she needs water and I assist by using my horn to get water seller and wind down. I still try nw

No no no no no.
He could.
Anyways he has gotten it he has gotten it. And will most likely keep getting it.
He would definitely get offline contacts but not as classy as the ones he got driving the SUV

Ways to make extra money with your Uber Car


Hello all, today we will explore the extra ways to earn an income if you have a vehicle or drive on Uber.
Transportation in Nigeria is a multi-billion naira industry, taxis and car-hire services make up a huge sector of this industry. Within this sector, millions of Naira exchanges hands on a daily basis.

Take a look around you, not only are there taxis everywhere, there are passengers to pick them up as well! And the truth is, transportation is an open sector, there is lots of space in this sector for people who are willing to participate.
Enter Uber, a revolutionary taxi app that aims to change the way the world hails cabs. When you have have a car on Uber, that car becomes a lot of things, it becomes an office, it becomes a billboard where you can market your products or/and services and it becomes an asset, instead of a liability.
This article explores how you can make extra profit from the effort you are already putting in, since your car is already picking up passengers and driving around the city; why not monetise this opportunity even further.
All the methods stated here applies for both partners and drivers.
Direct Sales and Marketing
When you pick up a rider, you can use that opportunity to market any other businesses that you have, a partner on Uber can place flyers in the car pointing to another business he or she owns. I recently came across an Uber driver who had a beautiful mini shop in his car, his wares were displayed in a neat and appealing manner. Needless to say, I was quite impressed. You can also do that, do you run or own a restaurant or a barber shop, why not print flyers to advertise your joint? As many as 800 passengers can enter your Uber car in a month, if done right you can convert a good number of these people to your customers.
Car-hire services
You can turn your Uber Car into a car hire service thereby by-passing Uber's 25%, after every trip, make sure to tell the passenger that you also perform car hire services, either on a hourly or daily basis. You can sweeten the deal by offering free Internet, free candy and biscuits, free bottled water, free drinks, free recharge cards etc. The partner should decide how much worth of freebies they can give away and still make a profit. As a result, the passenger gets pampered and spoilt silly at the same amount he/she would pay if he was doing an online Uber trip which ordinarilly wouldnt carry all these freebies.
A partner can afford to do this because the 25% that Uber would otherwise collect on an online trip is now going into the partners pocket, as a result there is more cash to free up in order to entice the passenger to take offline trips with you.
Delivery business
You can also start a delivery business with your car, since you are already in motion across the city, why not approach people who need items delivered, people like restaurants, supermarkets, tailors etc. You can tell your customers you run a delivery business, if they want to buy lunch or they need to pick up their clothes from the drycleaners, they can call you.
There are so many more things to do on Uber that can earn you extra income, you can reply this post to let me know your ideas.
Cheers and Take care.

This is what I say to everyone else. But they tell me Corolla is strong, my response is “Do you want to be dragging road with danfo.
This hype on Corolla is too much and it is making the car fucking expensive.

Too much hype on corolla making it unjustifiably and prohibitively expensive. Imagine as far back as 2005 second hand corolla going for a whooping 1.5M! No topnotch aesthetic, bland interior, ugly outlook. The thing weak me.

Drivers are not finding it easy making 35k per week and also maintaining the car. If you need your car properly maintained, I strongly suggest you handle all maintenance. Earnings left after fuel, weekly remittance and maintenance is pitiable.
Ask the drivers.


How much are uber/ Taxify drivers making a month? After commission, remittance and fueling.. Is it up to 100k a month.

Drivers pls share your experience and the type of car you drive.
Including honest breakdown

I prayed to get a trip to the island but no requests came. And it wouldn't make sense blowing empty to the island with toll, only to get a request that will bring me back to mainland. Anyways, tmrw is another day

It’s no hype dude. I have driven 3 different brand of cars. The difference is so much.

Next time take the risk, it usually pays off. Especially when you're around yaba/surulere (not so far from island)
