I'm looking to collaborate with music producers. If you have music that I can use in the background of my videos I will credit and link you in the description. Let me know guys!
Screw background music, so annoying and distracting!!!
Lyft express drive in sf on a busy day, after rental, gas, and taxes is a $6 an hour job. Minimum wage here is $15.
Thanks for the info. These are great tips.
awesome!
1. Navigation is the most important thing.
2. Clean car
3. Look professional
4. Air freshener
5. I will also recommend having signs in the back of the car explain the rate system.
6. Always ask questions if you're not sure of something. For example if you're 1 minute away from the building ask the passenger is on the right side or left side.
7. Never let a p passenger disrespect you or push you. around
juice323 blue great tips!
Wait, a sign explaining the rate system? Can you explain? Lmao I'm a new driver and I guess I should know what you're talking about, I mean I know there are surge prices but not sure what those are exactly... ?
now I know that I can look at my past rides and calculate the average price of those, do you do that also?
Rate system? As a uber rider that’s their job to understand and figure out. I’ve had riders be abusive regarding the fees. I’ve promptly removed them from my vehicle and reported them.
This is what I would prioritize:
1. Good driving skills - Make them feel safe, keep you out of trouble, won't tire you out
2. Great attitude - Be nice, don't overdo it, be ready to have an interesting conversation, don't be a creep
3. Clean car - I do not use air freshener but I do Lysol my seats.
4. Good music - Be open to requests. Seriously, I have been a passenger and listening to politics on AM is not a good ride. Think 90s pop, smooth jazz, whatever
5. Understand your market! Know where the good business is.
6. Stay safe and don't let a passenger take advantage of you. I have canceled rides because the passenger was mean or argumentative. Like one was mad of the way I took to PICK HIM, not take him to the place. I dropped him at the next Gas Station in a safe area and pushed the cancel button so he would not be charged. He of course said he would call Uber and that my "Uber career" was over. And, oh yeah, Uber is where the drama is at. I never heard of anything from Uber.
Happy Mother's day to all the mother's watching! Don't know what we would do without you! Hope you enjoy the video and leave a comment below if you have any questions on becoming a Lyft Driver :)
Awesome, needed some refreshment back on lyft again.
It's always great to get some good refreshing!
Good tips! I'd add a few more:
11 - Mileage tracker - Mileage is easily the biggest deduction we can get. Been using Everlance Free version. Works great.
12 - Income tracker - I have 5 gigs and like to centralize my earnings in one spot. Started using the House of gigs income tracker and it's fine.
Great tips , love your video .
Thank you Dee! :) Have you ever thought about being a Lyft Driver?
The most important is having a clean car. Some people don’t want to talk and would rather get some work done and that’s cool. I just started and have noticed it’s rather easy to tell if they just want some quiet time or if they want to hang out and talk.
I have the same car same year but red . Can’t wait to start lyft. Thanks for your great vids !
Oh that’s awesome! Love this car, but also getting rid of it soon haha. And of course, thanks for watching!! ✌🏻
Some good information you have on here!
Thanks! Just general info mostly, planning on diving into more specific stuff in future videos!
U can fix that little rubber thing on your door panel really quick with some super glue, hold down for a few seconds, and will never move again 👍✨
I actually did just exactly that! We are on the same page, thanks man!!
I used to do water candy but not anymore the pay is too low.
yeah. people probably don't tip much for that, but it i also usually only offer if I like the person, so they usually tip anyway!
Agreed
They don’t pay trips ! Why we provide any extra
I drive for Lyft and my air conditioner doesn’t work so I carry around a USB connected Fan so they can use it. I make almost $50 - $100 a day and I live in a country area. I spray my car with cinnamon spray every time a driver leaves my car. Lyft is almost a full time job for me and I have only been driving for Lyft for 3 days and I have made $300 so far even some with tips and without tips. I think it’s all about customer service, good conversation, ask what radio station they like, try to find something relatable you can talk about and get them to their destination fast and safe. :)
Nurshlob what city do you lyft in?
You should really get your ac fixed
Nurshlob these are some great tips you are sharing! Sounds like you’re making great money and having a blast while you’re at it!
@@brandonfoss9445 Obviously she needs money to get the AC fixed which I'm sure she will do at some point.
@@renasmile ac is required to drive so
Dylan has a nice vehicle. I would tip him and leave a 5 star rating.
Sam Smith Yeah i love my car passengers love it too
@@TheRideshareHub How is it on gas mileage? That black paint color looks great on it. I like it a lot.
Sam Smith It’s like 25 mpg so not great but not bad either. Yes black is the best color. Might black out the wheels and lights too.
Dylan
All weather mats are great to use.it makes my car look extra neat and are easy to clean 😊
I am a 5 star driver and I follow 3 simple rules.
1. I keep my ride clean, as in, NOTHING IN THE CAR. I also have a can of ozium in the glovebox that I spritz after EVERY passenger.
2. I'm friendly with my passengers. Let your instincts tell you if the person wants to talk or not, but usually, they do.
3. I practice SAFE DRIVING. I accelerate and brake gradually, as well as take my turns gently. I also follow the cardinal rule of NEVER EVER TAILGATING!
I get comments on all three, cleanliness, friendliness, and safe driving.
Trying to juggle bottled water and candy and gum and all that shit. I mean, I get it, but when it really comes down to it, the 'experience' we provide as rideshare drivers lasts, on average, about 6 miles. The passenger has no way to really RATE us via comment. It's not like they're gonna say "Hey, PICK THIS DRIVER! HE GIVES YOU FREE CANDY"! There is no need for 'value added' services here. When a rideshare solution comes along that DOES allow the passenger to pick and choose their drivers, THEN maybe I'll consider trying to manage inventory, but for now, I keep it VERY VERY simple.
I keep two small unopened packets of facial tissue, a couple of self sealing barf bags, and two small bottles of water in my driver door pocket area. These are for emergencies, not for every passenger. In the trunk, I keep a can of fix-a-flat, some duct tape, rope, several long zip ties and a shovel. Just making sure you're paying attention. lol. I actually keep my trunk completely empty just like the rest of the car. It's a hybrid and the battery takes up a good chunk o the trunk. I HAVE considered getting a small child booster seat and keeping it in the trunk though. In my glovebox, I have a flashlight, a small stack of napkins (usually, from the last fast food place I was at) a pad of notepaper, a pen, and a couple of unopened cheap disposable ponchos. I figure, one of these days, the ponchos are gonna bring me a nice tip! I do also provide my passengers with a charger for their phone, but again, nothing extreme. It's discreet, always put away, but readily available. I keep it in the back pocket of the front passenger seat so it's always put away, but always available.
I DID spring for a set of those LED lights for underseat/underdash area, lol! 15 bucks on amazon and worth every penny. I RARELY turn them on (I actually RARELY drive at night, but even when I do...). They flash to the music different color leds. I've turned them on a few times while driving college kids in Athens. And not long ago I turned them on with the 'gentle fade mode' and was able to calm down a toddler with them for the last 10 minutes of a ride! lol I DO use these sometimes, but just the white light mode. I does make it very easy to see inside the car when you're getting in.
I don't think I'd want to give ANY passenger something to eat or drink. To much of a liability for my taste. I only have the bottled water in case a passenger needs it in a crisis.
Holy cow, your channel has been on fire since I last checked you out. You are killing it! I love seeing your amazing growth. Great work!
One Happy Frugal Family Thank you! Yeah, been trying to upload daily! And also trying to get out of debt haha
@@TheRideshareHub You are doing so well. How is your debt journey going?
One Happy Frugal Family My debt journey is going! I am almost done with BS2 :)
@@TheRideshareHub I am so happy for you. Way to go! We finish at the end of this month. Almost there. You can do it!
One Happy Frugal Family That’s awesome. I also just got a job that doubled my income!
Great vid more people need to see this
Just people interested in doing ride share :)
Nice video my man. Love the part about the smile and conversation. Always important to make the passengers feel welcome
Definitely. That's really the most important part. If you make the passenger feel comfortable then all of the other little issues become miniscule. Hows the Acura treating you?
Great tips and info..Your last tip number 10 was kind of bias..lol..I drive a minivan so you could of easily said, You need a vehicle...just messing around but good tips man, new sub here..Keep it up
lol thank you :D
If you have Android Auto enabled it works with the Lyft app. You can have turn by turn come out thru your car speakers and look at the map in your car display!!😉👍
Informative
Thank you long and new :)
Thank you my friend I've been doing Lyft since April now in Orange County CA I heard you mentioned you do Lyft in the O.C.love to meet up with you sometime maybe at the John Wayne airport Lyft drivers parking by ihop lol you're right a smile is very important and ask the riders questions about them . Well I really hope you read this message my friend thank you for the videos you upload it really motives me and I'm sure other drivers and love to catch up with you in person one day! 🙏
I have a "Menu" which I printed on my computer and is laminated I list the candy and water, both kinds of chargers, and a list of radio stations I have preset. Some people could care less, but others love it. I played the hip-hop station for one 15 minute and the guy loved it. He said "Oh, a cool Lyft driver." I have R&B, hiphop, gospel, classic rock, "adult contemporary" and country. It doesn't guarantee a tip, but it makes the ride more fun.
Thanks for the tips, sadly signed up before finding your video.
About music: Is there recommended playlists for driving?
Well, if you play eurobeat you'll certainly get there faster. 😉
Great video
Thank you!! Feel free to subscribe for weekly videos on Uber and Lyft :)
Charging cables. Iphone and android (micro usb/type c) and multiple of each.
forgot about that. always great to have charging cables!! especially if they are the ones that charge phones fast!
I would recommend having the iPhone charger in the Android charger.
good idea!
What do you mean ?
Having an iPhone and Android charger available for passenger use.
@@TheRideshareHub Only a few use the charger, but the ones who do love it. People are impressed even if they don't use them.
I have the three types and they always freak out I have one of each.
You forgot one very important thing....A driver's license!!! You most certainly need to have a driver's license if you want to drive for lyft. You need to have driver's license if you want to drive period.
It’s a lie we don’t make that much sometimes $6 an hour. Be honest
james le is 5 to $10 an hour
You can make a lot more than $6 an hour if you drive smart.
@@TheRideshareHub okay $7
6 or 7 an hour?? Lol I make around 20. This morning I drove for an hour and 20 minutes, made $37.
@@kbanghart how about your gas?
Them subs growing... Keep working
Thanks man! Hope to hit 10k soon!
You are going to be somebody someday, great video, love your positive attitude. I find, not a lot of people can afford a car/ auto, and insurance. I would love to invent a company, that can offer the car and insurance under a lease plan to good honest people willing to work as drivers. like college students, provided they keep their grades up. One car can be driven by many people and we all benefit
Y'all do too much all this candy, water, chargers.
Drive safe and have a clean car. Period.
People worrying about what conversation to have with passengers.
Supplying gum and water...I'm telling you this is why these riders are spoilt. They are paying for a ride and that's it. You are a taxi not a moving restaurant.
Jeremy Hagayn lots of people like to be different and improve their driving experience. try being more open to suggestions :)
Lol restaurant? Umm it's only water and gum. Not everyone is going to accept it, so it's not like you're out a ton of money and it's just a courtesy. and hey if it's a difference between getting a tip and not, I'll do it!
Man you just hateful Tommy.
We are independent contractors so the passengers are paying for whatever we decide to provide them. If you wanna be a cheap ass bitch, then suit yourself, but don't bitch about "spoiled riders" cause you're a tightwad
@@TheFinanceZone Offering candy and gum is a great icebreaker and can lead to good conversation, which is really the key to tips. Most people don't accept anyway, but they appreciate the offer. I can get 32 bottles of Deer Park Spring water for about $5 and it lasts all week. I don't use the cheapest water. My riders love Krabbie Patties which make them laugh when they see them.
These are all write offs. Of course, that doesn't mean you'll be fully reimbursed by the IRS, but it helps.
Also recommend having cleaning supplies.
definitely!
I keep some in my trunk.. never know when you'll need them...
Thank ❤️❤️
Thank you for watching :) Feel free to like and subscribe for future Uber and Lyft videos :)
Number 10 is no longer needed. Lyft will provide
Duffchaser oh really? when!
@@TheFinanceZone no idea when it started but I'm driving their car
what type of car is it and how much do you need to pay? Is it free if you complete a number of rides?
they teamed with hertz its normally just a 4 door sedan i was driving a nissan sentra. i was paying 250 a week not bad since i dont have to worry about maintenance
that's true! is it true that the payment goes down the more you drive it as well?
Your awsome
You are too :)
Dylan, you will not beleive how many comments i get from passengers get cause my car is clean... should be a no brainer, but ive been at in rides where it is trash and the drivers don't care.
These tips are amazing really good! They all work and are essential to having great results as a rideshare driver!
The Therapist On Wheels Hey man! Yeah, they are the basic necessities! How’s your new year been so far?
@@TheRideshareHub it's has been slow but there could be a number of factors otherwise it's been good. Love doing rideshare looking forward to the rest of 2019!
I'm about to start being a Lyft Driver !!! Nice Video
Awesome!! Welcome to the squad! Let me know if you have any questions 😁
My experience using Lyft is that most of the drivers have no customer service skills.Maybe 2 or 3 out of ten drivers have no customer service skills.Most of the drivers do not offer or help you if you have luggage or a couple of grocery bags.Of course they still expect a tip for sitting on their ass and just popping the trunk open for you and that is it.I drove a cab in 1991-1993 and drove in bad neighborhoods.I got held up.I would tip the drivers but I had such a terrible incident with a Lyft driver on June 9 that changes my attitude.The driver picked me up at the Arby's and took me to the Laundry mat.He was suppose to wait while I picked up my laundry that I had done for me.He was suppose to wait and then drive me home.Instead he asks me if I have anything in the car.I say yes my gym bag but I will be back in a minute.He tells me,orders me to pick up my bag and get out of the car and then he drives away.I suspect that he did that because he took offense as I had to correct him as he was going the wrong way.He points to his GPS on the phone.I tell him I do not care what the phone says.Why would you get off Oliver St.when the Laundry Mat is on Oliver St.?These drivers seem to have little or no knowledge of where places are or even main streets,intersections.I then ask him how can I get a bigger car as I need to bring 4-6 boxes to FedEx next month to ship to Las Vegas,that I have had enough of Wichita.I have seen enough of Wichita.I am moving.This guy obviously should not be driving if he is so sensitive.I have filed numerous complaints about this driver.He should be fired.I know that when I was working that if I did something like that I would have been fired.
great video, but gum has wrappers too lol.
Do you find the suction cup phone mount to be better than the vent mounts?
I did my first ride yesterday and after see this video, i can see that i fail the skills :/ well next time I’ll do it better.
Sueños de Mary Castorena let me know if you need any help with anything! :) like everything it comes with practice!
I like that u said you got to fake it 😂😂 on point 😂😂😂
lol i know right!!
Nice channel friend
Thanks amigo!
I drive with White ford escape :)
Can't believe people would steal your stickers!
Apple Crider - Financial Literacy For Students yep, left them on the outside once, never again!
Yes some people do that cheap thrills
They do send you one for free if you request them, something Uber won't do. My Uber sticker is trashed. I very rarely drive them now.
A thief will steal anything
Great Video man. I wish i could've know that i could've gotten a sign on bonus. I just applied today. Anyway i still can? Appreciate the tips and tricks😎🤙
You can use my referral code for Uber if you want to sign up for them and get the bonus. But with Lyft you have to use my link to register...
It should get rid deactivation policy, such as cancellation too many customer request, or customer at fault.
My car is 2012 Ford Fusion S. I also need a car cigarette lighter splitter with USB ports. Don't forget your phone charge cable! When I drive, I carry a bag of OROWEAT bread. Sometimes I ask customers do they want some?.
I love the ford fusion! I’ve also never heard of a driver offering bread to their passengers. What do they usually say?
How long will it take for me to get my Lyft sticker? I just got approved to be a driver
hell no, be youself, everyone is equal why we need to be acting like that, offer you gum, ,good smile ,good conversation .they gonna leave the gum in your car .just treat them equaly,nice, and drive safely,they give tips even not alot of conversation .sometimes good conversation no tips ,they give you tips when they want to give you tips .
Mints are much better
Let them buy their own gum.If they want limousine service,then order a limousine.Clean car does not always get you tips.Riders are cheap.
Just started Lyft, $21.88 my first hour
That’s good!
Where do you get the stickers?
Nice
tj cutz Naughty
I would recommend just open up the windows especially when somebody just came out the gym
Yeah that's a good idea! Although I always recommend to roll the windows down in between rides and not during. Most passengers don't want wind blowing in their face during a ride.
For as $ per hour goes, it depends on where you stay , I live in Baton Rouge and some weeks I make 600$ some I make 200$
My brother should call them since he has a car.
Your phone holder is not legally mounted for CA. 5x5 driver's side lower corner. Just FYI. In SF/Berkeley btw
Yep, I actually talk about that in a later video! I didn't know that at the time! Thanks for pointing that out. Obstruction of view right? We're in Berkeley too! Are you a Lyft or Uber driver?
Where do I get the stickers from?
where do you get lyft stickers ?
When I pick up riders I ask “Whassssssupppppp” big tip!!!!!!!!
haha that's awesome man
You need to invest in some floor mats. Your carpet will be destroyed in no time unless you only drive on dry days.
I drive in California so it doesn't rain much
Hi I have a few points and my checkr shows a traffic violation for being suspended and blocking intersection this was 2014 I paid fine
Did you get it taken care of? Sometimes they are pretty strict with traffic violations just because of the nature of the job.
10 should be: have a fuel efficient car.
Number 4. Well alright I hope my passengers get comfortable with death metal really quick.
Do you need a universal charger, for the passengers?
Honestly most people have iphones
Lyft Driver - you want a piece of gum .
Customer- you tryna say my breath stink ?
😂😂😂
I supply nothing. Not even a charger cord. Just a clean car. Music.
I tried to sign up for STEEREO but I am not being able to. I downloaded the app on my iPhone and put emails and password and when I click next button nothing happens. Please help if there is other ways to signup.
Sagar Did you use my referral code?
Most drivers say that earning you claimed isn't true. Check other videos about driving lift and uber. Are they lying.
Is there a referral code needed to obtain the bonus?
yes, they are all in the description!
I never use air fresheners. I do essential oils. My vehicle is always clean.
I’ve heard those are great. What brand do you use?
@@TheRideshareHub Eucalyptus and Lavendar
Is this coffee for Uber or Lyft
lol gum has wrappers 2
My music sucks compared to yours and vise versa. Linking their phone to your infotainment is a bad idea - getting involved in the music thing makes it painful, will not do it!
Thanks for the video!
You needa a aux output.
Ford Escape? Really it’s been my experience with the escape is it’s maintenance intense and a gas hog. Good luck with that
Can you drive in. A city you dont live I?
Black ice
Just try to take them there location safe that is what they want
Mkay!! WAy be a tool!!
He means up to $500 for him. Up to $30 a hour my eye 👀
how do I do that
Don't lie to people I've been a Lyft driver since last October and I've never made 30.00 per hour
Got my iPhone charger stolen twice. So fuck that! No charger or free shit in my car!
Oh wow, bummer!
Your comment says Uber
I gave him once. And they stuck it to my seat. Not a good idea.
Isn't it illegal to hang something from your rearview mirror?
Jeff Thurber Technically maybe but i’ve never had an issue
Does the car have to be a full coverage ?
Yes, you'll need full coverage on your car to do rideshare :)
What kind of phone holder is that?
It's called the Mpow cell phone holder, on amazon for around ten dollars!
You got to fake it Lmfaooo 😂
lollll just being honest!!
How do I sign up for the Lyft on boarding class?
link in the description!
I’ve signed up already I just need to know once they register your car in the system they will then connect you with a on boarding class correct?
I offer nothing to my taxi pax except for a ride and ALL of them leave at least a $5 tip
shockawha9 Wow that’s awesome. You must be a great driver. Do you mainly taxi or do you do Lyft/Uber as well?
I think you should try out some of that advice like opening the door and water bottles... Wonder how much would you get in tips for that?
Is anyone else watching just to see those dimples? No? just me? Cool. :)
