Taxi business how to.. - hope you can help.. :)
« on: April 14, 2012, 02:16:54 pm »
Hi, hope you can help me out about my concern. I want to know how I can put up taxi operation business.

1.) How/where/when do I apply for a franchise line?
2.) How much will be my capital for the business?
3.) How much for the franchise line?
4.) Are there any minimum units required, if so, how many is minimum and maximum? Can I have one unit of taxi first?
5.) How much is the boundary that I need to set? what would be the "hatian" between me and the taxi driver?
6.) How many hours should I allow the driver to go out with my taxi?
7.) What do I need to look for in looking for a taxi driver?
8.) How much is the initial capital for this? what make/model of taxi do I get?

Sorry po. ang daming tanong.. hope you can answer me either here or on my email address, valeryann.ramos@yahoo.com

The best way to go to learn about all of these information is to get in contact with a taxi drive who works under a taxi operator. You can simply ride a taxi and converse with the taxi drive about it. Surely, you will not gain all the info in one trial, so keep on asking every time you ride. I know I am offering you a sort of dumb suggestion, but it's a kind of business I want to get into too, though not sooner. So far, I've only learned about the boundaries taxi drivers have to make in order to make their day productive, and I am so interested about the figures exposed. My mind was calculating while the driver was talking about how much he had to pay to the operator on a daily basis.
