Out of zone pointers for the new courier
Delivery apps are one of the better sidehustle opportunities. Delivery apps connect couriers to available deliveries in a given area. There are more than a few delivery apps. However, they all have certain things in common.
Delivery apps will help the courier through each step of the process. Furthermore the app will keep the courier on track. The biggest thing required of the courier is to pay attention and then pay closer attention.
Out of Zone Pointers for the New Courier
In the course of a series of deliveries, it is a given that the courier will be out of the zone at some point. However what does it mean to be out of the zone? Additionally does it cost the courier to be out of the zone, and if so, why?
Perhaps the best news is that it isn’t a complete loss to be outside the zone. In fact it’s to be expected at times. Not only will some deliveries have far away drop-offs but also they will take the courier out of the delivery zone. In the example screen shot the courier is outside of the starting zone. (I had just completed a delivery)
Notice in the example that the app is searching for orders. While the courier returns to the zone. This is an option. The courier may be offered a pickup that returns to the starting zone. This is an excellent strategy for the courier. It maximizes the courier’s time and resources. Not only does it help the courier, but also can be a profit booster to the courier’s bottom line.
The takeaway
With this in mind it isn’t a difficult decision to accept the faraway offer. Based on the amount offered, it can become a lucrative delivery. With the possibility of having a return delivery, the long delivery, looks more like a long opportunity.
In short, being outside the zone isn’t a losing proposition. Furthermore, it is to be expected from time to time. However, the app will look for opportunities to help balance the expenses. Every little bit helps! Stay safe out there.
