Well, you tip waitresses 15%..and they bust their ass going back and forth serving you for an hour. I personally don't think delivery guys deserve more than 10% for their one-way trip. |
Yea, I'm probably going with a flat fee between $2.99 - $4.99 per delivery. |

I had an idea like this sorta last week, but mine was more all inclusive for delivery.
:D
I actually have a ton of ideas... I'm just so lazy/tired from real work to do anything for myself these days. :( Is there a job where I can just sit and make up ideas and get payed for it? |

yeah, but without tips, who is going to deliver, and what will you pay them?
choosing select restaurants is good, but unless they are reasonably high end, its not likely people will pay more for your service. most eating establishments have already worked on the delivery/take out sector. many places set up for delivery use a similar fee - but you would have a specialty aspect.
you need to pay workers, and even if you are the one driving to PF Changs you likely wont make money. PF isn't even that good. its just a non-delivery chinese restaurant for lazies. my local doesnt deliver but it also doesnt serve the trash that PF does| |

but that's the point. ideas are the easy part. |

Ok. This is theoretical.
15 deliveries in one day. Each charges $4.99 per delivery. That makes $75 in revenue for me. I pay my employee 46% of that which is around $34. I pay $5 for gas for the day. My profit before taxes would be about $35. I shouldn't expect too much tip revenue should I?
Is this realistic or fantasy?
...looks like I'm back to the drawing board. Doesn't look like the business model is going to work. Thanks for the inputs biznology, capitalizt, and the17sss... |

Now, it's impolite to go into someone's thread and offer advice they can't use. |
