Need advice
It’s been 3 days since I started. Now granted I started on a Tuesday and only did the afternoon then Wednesday I did afternoon and then dinner time and today I was out mostly all day. I’m still trying to figure out what’s good orders and what is not. I’ll get mostly $5-7 for 4-5 miles but the issue is most deliveries outside of the hotspot require me to drive back to the hotspot to get orders again. Most of my orders have been that 5-6 miles range and usually 1 to 1.50 per mile there. I have had a few orders where it’s double 5-6 miles for $14 dollars or a few 1 mile for $5-6. I just have not seen many of the $2 per mile averages. I have yet to experience Friday and the weekends which I plan to do. Do I start declining more orders and be very picky and wait for 2-4 miles for $10+? Being new it’s a lot of trial and error. Half the time I’m driving to a drop off then right back to the hotspot and the other half I’ll just get an order on the way back which helps. I’m basically trying to figure out what to accept and what not to accept. Being new I’m aware I’ll make mistakes and take bad orders. Let me know what you guys do who do this a lot and any tips for me
