I know this absolute jerk that's making a good living doing it.
What the secret? He subtly changes the resturant prices--the customers don't have a clue. When caught(one time), he claimed it was a mistake in the publication.
Workers/Drivers? There's a lot of desperate people in this sharing economy. (Some do sample the food though.)
Since I really can't stand the dude, I'll spill everything I know.
Lunch is a hard sell. I don't know why? Delivering dinner is where it's at. People eat a lot!
It's a good business for anyone. This guy started when he moved from the east coast to the west coast. On the east coast, they have had this service before computers. Just printed menus, and phones. Supposedly, it a common service in NY?
This guy is so successful, even without technology, he never bothered to revamp for Internet use. It's still just a 10 page booklet, with the scanned restaurant menus, with fluctualting prices. It all depends on his mood. Of course, restaurants always get the lowered, agreed upon price.
So, it's a good business model. I never thought people would pay so much for delivered food, but they do.
I did learn something from this guy, if you bend the rules, and work hard, you can make pretty much any business work.
