Growing your business as an Uber fleet owner

Posted by John Smith on May 24th, 2017

The ability of organizations to listen and implement vital feedback received from consumers will be instrumental in their survival within a competitive industry. Keeping up with industry trends is another tactic for survival. Uber as a Transportation Network Company (TNC) has refused to rest on its oars and remains committed to evolving. The ride sharing phenom is making continuous efforts to ensure that riders and drivers get the best out of its proffered services.

The Uber business model is crafted to ensure that transportation runs as seamlessly as running water with little or no obstacles in the way. Uber riders and drivers benefit from the Uber’s operations in different ways.

As an Uber passenger, you can request rides from the Uber app and you will be matched with a registered Uber driver. The Uber driver will pick you up from your location with no stress to you. You can pay for the ride via the Uber app or pay with cash (depending on your city). You can also rate the Uber driver’s service on the app.

As an Uber driver you earn money while working on your own schedule. You are your own boss and report to no one. You also get to keep most of your earnings while Uber keeps a small percentage of fares that result from each trip you undertake. This is not the same for a person who drives for an Uber fleet owner. Uber fleet owners have a number of cars registered and the Uber platform and hire Uber drivers to drive these cars. The terms and conditions for driving for a fleet owner depends on the arrangements made between the hired driver and the Uber fleet owner. Uber has no say in the amount of money paid to the Uber driver.

Fleet maintenance is one of the most important aspects of running an Uber business. If you do not have a handle of how much expenses your fleet incurs on a daily or weekly basis, you may not make enough money as Uber fleet owner. Managing a fleet of trucks that are constantly on the move is not an easy task and any lapse in management can lead to considerable financial setback and loss of credibility. Be sure to give due attention to all vehicles you have registered on the Uber platform.
