About not knowing places, Google maps will guide you with about 90% accuracy, the rest you have to use social engineering to figure out.

A new driver that doesn't know Jack about cars, what does he know he's testing apart from just moving the car around. Owners should just try and be sincere about the condition of their cars

It's true, partners should be honest about the condition of their cars.
But in case they are not, drivers too should know a little about cars.
At least he must know enough to do basic checks, otherwise how will he take care of the car. A driver that has to go to mechanic to top up windshield wiper fluid might not do so well in the business. I'm just saying.

My point? It is not enough of an excuse that he doesn't know. 15,000 -35,000 security deposit is not small money.
He must carry out enough checks that will make him confident enough to drop that amount for an opportunity to make cash with the vehicle.

If he is not convinced, he holds on to his cash and looks for the next serious partner who has everything ready.

I assure you, a lot of partners with very good cars are willing to drop their non-performing drivers right this moment for drivers coming in with security deposits.

With money in hand, you just have to find the right deal.

dru23:
You are rite my brother.. By the way raining season is here.. Me am taking my time.. Am waiting for the first batch of cars to fall victim to the rain.. The people that will suffer are ones that uber is the only source of income.. For a fact I will slow down bringing in cars ...once the rain settle down, will hear stores that touches.. Partners if you like continue driving your cars in the rain and all the bad places.. My advice which am not trying to force anybody, if you have a few fleet the ones that are down coz of the affect of the rain, just park quietly o till the rain either stops or roads are better.. There is no point fixing the same issues again that was caused by the rain and than put it out their to cause the same problem.. This is a mechanic season or they go chop money clean... " What a great time to be alive "

Despite the urgency to start doing something, if you do vehicle inspection, you are supposed to enlighten the car owner or make your observations about the car known upfront.

If you take a car that would affect your performance, except the driver has a great personality, believe me he would be labeled a bad driver and wouldn’t be able to defend himself because he never make known any observations before collecting the car keys.

If you observed anything during car inspection, make it known and have the car owner fixed it (if it can be fixed) before you sign Agreement and collecting car key. If you don’t make your observations known during car inspection and you now start giving stories when you’re supposed to deliver your weekly rental, I think that is a little too late.

I fully agree with what you have said. Additionally, a one day test drive will not be a bad idea for someone who is willing to pre-pay or front a security deposit.

Yesbody:
Do I have the highest 5 star trip on nairaland

66 is a good number, very respectable.
But you are not even in the race compared to the guys here. Little me here outstrips you with about 450. Talk less of the chairmen.

And your rating, Oh my God your rating.

Nice try.

chillex8:
I dont do off-line trips sir.

Oh, okay.

GAZZUZZ:
Does DVD help rating?

It does o, I bet it improves his off lines requests too. Even if it is by small.

nitigriti:
And guys, there's a difference between an inexperienced driver and a bad one. An inexperienced driver makes genuine mistakes or doesn't meet up with his obligations due to naivety.
A bad driver will make 150,000 a week and still not deliver, a bad driver is undisciplined. A bad driver wants to cheat. We need these kind of guys out of the system. The inexperienced ones, with a little bit of understanding and patience from car owners, will eventually become good

Point

chillex8:
The ideal way is for drivers to pay rental on Day 1 of the week. And renew subsequently.

But most e-hailing cars are dead and nonsense.

For instance a driver pays rental and few days later, car develops an issue, its his loss..

All these car owners shouting #assurance, don't have #assured cars. Yes I said it. Your cars are dead. Quote me.

I will pay rental on day1 and renew subsequently for any tokunbo car in pristine condition.

But a Nigerian used car, previously driven on Uber/taxify, I will pass over.

Driver-partners, ensure to test the car like u are buying a car, before you pay #assurance.

Ask them why the previous driver dropped the car, even request for the ex-drivers number to ascertain what you are jumping into.

Most of these car-owners are liars. Quote me.

In, all, there are very few good men "car-owners, and partner-drivers alike"

P.S, I have ZERO tolerance for driver default.

I got this from Google when I was looking for Taxify's number.

The Uber business model started out as a ride share business for people who owned vehicles and wanted to drive to make extra money with their vehicle, this person was called the Partner-driver.
So for instance, on your way to work, if you wanted to make some extra money with your vehicle instead of riding all the way alone with 4 empty seats, why not register on Uber and pair with someone who was going in the same direction as you and get paid for it. Or if you were a student and you needed some extra cash to fuel your car, you could go on Uber, pick up a couple of fares and voila, you were able to fill your tank.

But as Uber became more popular, more people began to think the platform could also function well as an investment opportunity. Those people would buy vehicles, and employ people who were willing to work, to man the vehicle. This marked the birth of the Uber driver.

Because it was a new type of investment, nobody, not drivers nor partners knew the modalities to follow. There was no regulatory body to monitor proceedings, Uber itself didn't really care what happened between the partner and driver, as long as it (Uber) got paid its 25%.

So it was clear the industry would have to regulate itself, in true capitalist form, market forces would have to determine the modalities.

How much for weekly remittance? Did the driver keep the car overnight or bring it home to his partner after work? Who was responsible for repairs and damages between driver and partner. Etc.
Nobody knew. So the industry regulated itself.

When Uber started in Nigeria, the most popular model was percentage. The partner would give the car to the driver at 20% of earnings while paying for petrol and other expenses.

However as time went on, it started to become clear that percentages were not very efficient for both Drivers and Partners.
As drivers began to understand the business better, they started to yearn for a model that would bring them more freedom.
Partners were looking for a solution that would peg their earnings at a rate acceptable to them. Instead of the "many calculations little understanding" model that was Percentages.
The industry would once again regulate itself.

Enter the Rental model. It worked worked wonders as it was a more decisive model and both Partners and Drivers understood clearly where they stood. I give you my car for a week and you pay me a pre-determined amount at the end of the week.

Everyone was happy at the genius of this new system, it was perfect they thought. It meant less monitoring and calculations for Partners to do, which was fine by drivers, who wanted to be their own bosses. Less interference from partners was the way to go.

Of recent however, reports are rife of drivers not paying partners (complete) weekly remittance or damaging vehicles and absconding.

So it seems the industry is trying to regulate itself again.
Partners are now deciding to demand the weekly rental in form a security deposit in advance, before the driver can take the car.

This move is going to entirely change the industry.
Partners will become service providers, reminiscent of Car rental services such as AVIS and Hertz who rent cars out to prepaying individuals.

So long as drivers pass verification checks carried out by the partner and has a security deposit, partners will provide vehicles for rental. While closely inspecting the usage of such cars to make sure they are being used by drivers in the manners agreed pre-rental.

This is a total paradigm shift as drivers can now exercise the full freedom that ushered in the Rental model and Partners can now breathe easier as this new model will better protect them.

What will be the next paradigm shift? Will a new model emerge? Will partners start to merge vehicles and resources to be competitive and better manage expenditure required to operate. Will we see a shift from the Individual to the corporate partner?

Nobody knows, but I'm pretty sure, Time will tell.

It's as of the partners are saying, "We are too exposed, let the driver too have some skin in the game. That way we can sieve out the drivers who are ready to put their money where their mouth is from the ones that aren't". And this makes sense. So much that there is a term for it in business; Risk management.

And it is going to change the entire industry.
Partners will become service providers, reminiscent of Car rental services such as AVIS and Hertz who rent cars out to prepaying individuals.

The paradigm shift is now complete. Finally, drivers can exercise the full freedom that ushered in the Rental model and Partners can breathe easier as this new model will protect both parties better.

Will it even work or will a new model emerge?
Will partners start to merge vehicles and resources to be competitive and better manage expenditure required to operate. Will we see a shift from the Individual to the corporate partner?

Nobody knows, but I am a hundred percent sure that, time will tell.

Thanks Boss.

I appreciate the lesson but has he not shortchanged himself.

Am guessing the Taxify promo you’re talking about is the one they pay drivers certain amount after taking certain number of trips.

Hope my questions no dey too much. I don’t understand the driver side of the business too well, so I am a novice in that area.

I'm more than happy to answer sir.
He wouldn't do it if he were short changing himself.
And It's okay if you can't drive, or don't understand the business. Nobody here will judge you.
I don't drive myself but I try to be aware of what's going on in my surroundings.

5 things to know about Taxify promo

1. Even though you have to attach your card, Taxify will not remove a dime for the promo trip.

2. If you are on a promo and driver ends trip, that is the end of the promo, you can't carry over the change to the next ride. You can enter gbese like this.

3. If you are on a long trip and you have a few promos you plan on using, you have to keep your eyes on trip cost to match each of your promos. What this means is that Taxify will not automatically begin charging the next promo you have, once the initial promo finishes. you have to manually end the trip then use the next promo, otherwise the money in your atm might enter voicemail.

4. On a promo trip, Taxify will never ever ask you to pay the driver, never. Even if you exceed the promo bonus. If the driver asks you for cash, he is trying to cheat you.

5. The driver can't tell its promo, so you don't have to feel "one kind", enjoy your trip and feel free to absolutely enjoy yourself.

Hello everyone
Happy Sunday.

Hello everyone

TheCar:
My Post - Maybe there should be “A Word Of The Day” series to enlighten and educate people on the advantages and disadvantages of Hire Purchase and Weekly Rental Payment.

Oga at the top, If I know everything I will not be asking for a "A Word Of The Day" series.

The highlighted is like repeating what I said?

PLEASE COME AND TEACH ME OOO. I WAN MAKE MONEY.

As far as you teach me right, I no dey mind insult, the bank alert received from putting what I learn to use, will not make me see the insults, just the lessons and the bank alert.

Have a nice day sir.

TheCar:
TaxiAppGuy - You are not renting the car out so he can eat, you are renting the car out so you can make money. In actual fact, he is renting the car from you so you can eat. Unless of course you don't take a remittance.

TheCar - Someone who can’t afford to feed himself or herself wouldn’t even thought of having millions in his/her account to buy a car for Uber business. So I assumed (might be wrong) that a car owner doing Uber business has passed Struggle/Survival stage (which is ability to feed yourself). Go read and understand these face of life: Struggle - Survival - Success - Significance.

TaxiAppGuy Reply - About struggle/survival. Unless you haven't travelled far before you think everybody that can afford to be a partner on Uber has passed Struggle/Survival mode. I don't have to read up on any "face" of life to know that. As a fleet manager, I have managed cars for many students who tell me that their vehicle is their only asset, and that is where they draw their sustenance from. I have managed vehicles for people who lost their jobs and depend solely on the return their car will give them. You agreeing you may be wrong has nullified your point anyway. Simply because you can't agree you are wrong then base your argument on that same falsehood.


TaxiAppGuy - When a driver pays #Assurance, he is your renter/hirer. At this time, he is boss.

TheCar - Because a Car Owner collect 20k Security Deposit (Assurance Deposit) Now automatically transfer ownership of a car worth above 1 million and in some case 2 - 4 Million to the driver. Boss, wetin happen?

TaxiAppGuy Reply - About 20k assurance and transferring ownership of car. I know you read what I wrote because you replied to it. At what point did you read that you should transfer ownership to the driver because he paid assurance. I encourage you to embolden it as you have done the other paragraphs, I want you to catch me red handed on this one. If you can't do that, then you are only replying to what you think I said VS what I actually said. But come brother, let's use regular logic, when a landlord rents a house out and agreements have been signed. If the tenant is using the house responsibly under the terms of the agreement [/b]and is [b]paying his money currently, does the landlord have a right to come and tell the tenant how to sit on his toilet bowl. If an Act of God occurs that is neither landlord nor tenant's fault and something spoils in the house. Guess what, tenant calls almighty Oga landlord to come fix,and Oga landlord fixes. You know why, because he has paid Oga assurance for the year. As I said in the post you quoted, once the renter has paid for the car, and he is using it responsibly (which we check four times a month) under the terms of the agreement you both signed, you have no right to tell him he must drive the car, or not drive the car. That is none of your business. I say this very carefully as a fleet manager, unless you don't know how rental works before you can suggest otherwise, if you do not know, ask. You must allow the renter piece of mind to use his rental, it's the law. Why would anyone hand over ownership of their vehicle after collecting assurance deposit, that makes no sense to me.

TaxiAppGuy - It is when you fail to collect #Assurance, you can start to call the person your driver, It is now you are boss. Before that, he is your renter.

TheCar - So as a fleet manager (which you claimed to be) once a car owner give you a car and you deliver weekly rental twice the car becomes your property but when it’s time to pay expenses like repairs, insurance or car documents renewal it becomes car owner property. Why Now, Oga experience.

TaxiAppGuy Reply - I don't understand this part vis a vis what I wrote, they don't seem to be related. Oga sir, I hope you know that under rental agreement such expenses are borne by owner, that is standard operating procedure unless otherwise stated in agreement, repair bill is footed by owner, damages bill must be covered by driver. Vehicle owner is required to put the car in shape so that the renter can enjoy what he is paying for. Under which law will you convert the car to your property after rent is paid twice?

TheCar - And please you need to be very diplomatic in your comments, you run a business on this thread so be mindful of your image and perception.

TaxiAppGuy Reply - Being diplomatic does not mean I can't have an opinion, so long as it is not abrasive or hurtful. That you simply do not agree with me is not me being un-diplomatic.


TaxiAppGuy - If money can only be earned after value has exchanged hands, how come you prepay your rent and prepay your NEPA and prepay your MTN but you don't want to prepay your rental. If that is the case, car dealers are everywhere, you can always walk up to one of them and tell them you want one week of value using the car before you pay.

My Reply – You need to learn some basic principle of business. Can you prepay for MTN card without MTN sim card. Can you prepaid PHCN bill without Prepaid Meters? My point still stand, if you don’t give value, you can’t get the money except you are holding a GUN?

TaxiAppGuy - In the end, I know it might seem you disagree with me, but your final points prove that, it is really yourself you disagree with. As I said in my earlier post, the driver with assurance is a renter and with him, a car owner is better protected.

My Reply – Please re-read what you said. You said once a car owner collect Assurance Deposit, the Driver becomes the boss. Go through your words to understand what you really posted and please collecting a NGN 20,000 Assurance Deposit doesn’t make a car owner better protected.

Lesson For You – Assurance Deposit doesn’t make a car owner better protected, it only reduce your loss in case the Driver default in his weekly rental payment and dump your car.

TaxiAppGuy - It is the one that pays at the end of the week that can be called your driver, it is he you have to be chasing up and down for payment and damage claims.

My Reply – Assurance Deposit doesn’t equate Upfront payment for weekly rental. Drivers are yet to start prepaying their weekly rental hence the reason car owner start collecting Assurance Deposit to minimize the loss.

TaxiAppGuy - So please stop this Nigerian landlord entitlement mentality thing you have, it is not needed in business. When you rent out a car with assurance, you are the one offering a service to the renter. He is the one paying money. The customer is king.

My Reply – I seriously doubt your understanding of Uber business. Let me repeat myself, Assurance is Security Deposit and that doesn’t equate Prepaid Weekly Rental. Do you get the point now.

TaxiAppGuy - In as much as you are inclined to disagree, you are not some Lord of the manor, bossing it over your harem of drivers. You are actually a service provider and your job is to make sure you provide top notch service by providing a good car Uber ready car.

My Reply – I provide the Car, (called Investment), the Driver provide the service (called Driving), the rider get the service and paid the Driver (The Money).

Lesson for You – Car Owner make an investment, Driver provide a Service, Rider PAY for the Service and Fleet Manager serves as Middlemen. Driver need an investor (Car Owner), Rider need a Service (Driving), Car Owner need to recoup amount invested (Weekly Rental). Without the investment (The Car), the Driver can’t provide service (Driving) and without the service rider can’t pay (The Money).

TaxiAppGuy - When you go to AVIS to rent a car with your hard earned cash and pay, who exactly is the service provider and who is the customer?

My Reply – When I go to AVIS to rent a car, I prepay for the service but Uber drivers don’t prepay for car rental yet. AVIS is the service provider and the customer pays (the Money) so AVIS can declare Dividend for its Investors.

Lesson for You – Investors (Car Owner), AVIS (Uber Drivers) and Customers (Uber Riders). Do you understand?

TaxiAppGuy - So because someone is renting your car with his hard earned money for Uber, he must call you boss, what exactly do you need the title for.

My Reply – Whether you like it or not, Investors are the real Boss. Go ask Dangote, Go as Steve Jobs, Go ask Jim Ovia, Go ask MDs of listed companies in Nigeria. Investors are the Boss. Please make time out to attend at least One Annual General Meeting of listed companies and you will meet the real Boss when the suppose boss is giving report to them.

TaxiAppGuy - I know it is a total mindset shift to hear that someone you assumed to be below you is actually above you, but it is just the truth.


My Reply – Just because I am a car owner doesn’t mean that the driver is below me. You need to read my closing statement in previous post.

TaxiAppGuy - I will keep saying it, a driver with assurance is your customer. Not your staff, nor slave. His job is to keep the car in the condition it was given out, under agreement and pay you. If he damages, he pays or repairs immediately.

My Reply – Except for the highlighted, you make sense. For the highlighted, am sorry, you don’t make sense. (Don’t be offended, truth is bitter).

TaxiAppGuy - I ordinarily would not reply this, but some of your allusions made it unavoidable. I have nothing but total respect for you.
My Reply – I have nothing for you except Absolute Respect. You deserve some accolades for taking the time to reply me.

Cheers.

It is refreshing to hear your views, I have laughed very hard.
And I have learnt a few things.
