I'm going to work tomorrow! Although this small long holiday is disliked by the Qiankun big transfer style of rest, it is not happy to think that the balance of the holiday is about to be 0.
Going to work urges people to enter (lei) (xia), but on the way to work, we can still find some fun for ourselves, and even earn money on the way to work! For example, drive a hitchhiker~
The experience is like unpacking a blind box
"Driving a ride is like dismantling a blind box, which is kind of interesting." At the end of April, the Xiangdao Travel hitchhiking business was launched in Shanghai for trial operation. First owner Huang Jiaqi is the senior growth manager of the marketing department of Xiangdao Travel, and as an insider, he is quite active in the new business of the experience company.
On the first day of the trial operation, he launched a single order before 6:30 a.m.; at 7 o'clock, he received a ride-hailing passenger.
"It's easy to operate and the process is smooth." Huang Jiaqi said that he usually "two points and one line", there is no opportunity to contact strangers, hitchhiking not only gives him the opportunity to chat with different people, but also earns back the cost of daily travel, killing two birds with one stone.
On the first day of trial operation, Huang Jiaqi took a single order from work, "My home went to the unit 10 kilometers, and on the first day I received two single hitchhikers, earning nearly 60 yuan, of which 20 yuan is a subsidy from the platform, and the remaining 30 yuan comes from the fare given by the passengers." ”
In the past ten days of trial operation, car owners generally said that "it is very fun, a little interesting", and most of the passengers feel that "compared with the special car, it is very affordable".
Multiple levels for security
Some people are worried that the hitchhiking will not turn the car into an operating vehicle, affecting the residual value when it is resold later.
No, as long as the necessary license materials such as driver's license, driving license, and actual photos of the vehicle are submitted, there will be no impact or change on the vehicle.
When it comes to the hitchhiking business, safety is inseparable. In order to maximize safety, Xiangdao Travel has done its homework in this regard. Not only do you need to pass real-name authentication and online security exams, but you also need to pass bio-face recognition before each order to ensure that people and vehicles match.
These safety barriers have made internal staff also call "too strict". Lu Xiuquan, public relations manager of Xiangdao Travel, said: "When I uploaded the photo of the inner page of the driver's license, the page was a bit wrinkled, and there may be that the information is not the clearest, so it was rejected by the background and asked to be re-uploaded." ”
In addition, Xiangdao Travel has also purchased driving accident insurance for each hitchhiking trip. Xu Wenbin, marketing manager of Xiangdao Travel, said that when SAIC Passenger Cars promoted the hitchhiking business, everyone was very enthusiastic, and some people joked with colleagues that "after you take my car, you have to pay money." ”
Xu Wenbin said that in the field of hitchhiking business, it is very common for car owners and passengers to trade offline after getting familiar with it, and the advantage of the platform is that insurance is purchased for each trip to cope with potential safety hazards.
True shared mobility
Just a few days before the launch of the ride-hailing business, the two giants of the ride-hailing market, Dida and Harrow, submitted listing applications in Hong Kong and the United States respectively. After the combined volume of Dida and Harrow, they occupy 80% of the overall hitchhiking market, so why did Hedao Travel launch a hitchhiking business?
At the end of last year, on the occasion of the second anniversary of the establishment of Xiangdao Travel, Wu Bing, CEO of Xiangdao Travel, announced at the press conference that Xiangdao Travel completed the layout of "all-scenario smart travel complex" and will provide users with one-stop travel solutions. Hitchhiking is obviously a necessary step in the process of enjoying the road travel layout "all-scenario smart travel complex".
"When the APP gives passengers more choices for how to travel, passengers are more sticky to our products." According to Guo Meng, the person in charge of the Xiangdao Travel Hitchhiking Project, the launch of the Hitchhiking business has activated some of the original silent users, "This number is still quite impressive." Guo Meng added: "Moreover, with the gradual professionalization of the online ride-hailing business, hitchhiking is a truly low-carbon and shared way of travel." ”
"According to the background data in the past few days, our car owners are very active." Chen Lu, head of the hitchhiking market at Xiangdao Travel, said that in order to let the hitchhiking business run in small steps, Xiangdao Travel decided to integrate the internal resources of SAIC Motor and its partners in the early stage of development.
"At this stage, we will focus on the promotion of SAIC's internal enterprises and suppliers, focusing on the commuting scene during the morning and evening rush hours." Chen Lu said that internal resources not only have sufficient security guarantees, but also can make many effective suggestions for products. "After further improving the product, we will target a larger area of people with precision."
Xu Wenbin said that after one month of trial operation, the hitchhiking business will enter the formal operation stage, and then it will be promoted in the Yangtze River Delta region; by the end of this year, the hitchhiking business will be promoted to all cities covered by Xiangdao travel.
