After being stranded a a regional airport I conceptualized an affordable on demand car service for the masses.
The Elevator Pitch
• Unlimited access pick-up/drop off luxury car service.
• Unlimited trips to a maximum radius 15km or 9.32 miles.
• Unlimited Individual Pricing: $39.95 per month.
• Commercial Pricing: $39.95 per call with fare splitting should customer incur additional mileage*
• Interactive GPS app to call or schedule trips. Includes trip summary and expense reporting.
• Users will be paired with one principal driver and an alternate to build rapport.
• Drivers are security services or executive protection certified
• White glove airport pick-up/drop off service.
• Fleet of 2020 Volvo XC90 Excellence and 2020 Lincoln Continental Coach Door Edition vehicles.
Areas Served
• Greater Los Angeles Area
• Washington D.C. Maryland, Virginia (DMV)
Perks
• Streaming Media Service (Bloomberg, CNN, WSJ, HULU, Netflix, Spotify)
• Our app allows customers comfort and media preferences to be saved so when they enter the vehicle it is as they would expect it.
• Plush teddy bear for those travelling with children
Competitive Differentiator
• We are more cost effective per mile than Uber Black or competitive car services
• We don’t our drivers like people and not commodities. They are all employees.
• Our objective is to hiring predominately armed forces veterans and former police. The safety and security of our customers is paramount.
• We try to pair clients with the same driver, same car.
• We’re committed to green energy eliminating petrol fleet by 2023
• We will never ask for nor do we require tips. Providing excellent service is our reward
• The wait for a car may be a little bit longer however customers may always schedule trips knowing they will have the same driver, same great experience.
Commercial Industries Served
• Hospitality (Hotels, Boutique Hotels and Resorts)
o As part of our growth strategy we will propose hoteliers offer the (airport) service to complimentary to customers.
o Hotels pay $39.95 per trip however should a customer require our services during their stay we split the fare for every mile thereafter.
• Studio (Film, Television and Web Media studios)
o Airport pick-up/drop off
o Time + Miles pricing
o Livery Service (Dedicated driver for the day)
• Executive Detail (Corporate executives and Government officials)
o These drivers are former police or armed forces professionals with certification
o Time + Miles pricing
Growth Strategy
• We will begin with a modest fleet serving our commercial clients first. (Margins are 30%)
• Our commercial services will cross-pollinate the consumer business and help grow brand awareness and subscription as customers must download the app to use the service.
• Following a few quarters of consecutive growth and profitability we will launch our unlimited consumer service. ( A loss leader {unprofitable} but a growth accelerator)
• Following an initial round of funding we will purchase/lease a commercial space to facilitate growth and reduce overhead. (Vehicle maintenance and cleaning in-house)
• Our objective is for the unlimited subscription service to become the model much like it has become for streaming services. Once our model has been proven successful we will begin an aggressive M&A strategy of acquiring and consolidating competitors.
• Upon reaching our 250,000 subscriber milestone our unlimited service will increase to $79.95 per month.
Marketing Strategy
• We will launch our unlimited service on a referral basis. Those interested in the service who are not referred by an existing member will be invited to join our waiting list. Exclusivity breeds envy and excitement.
• Relying predominately on word of mouth we may run ads on LinkedIn, Instagram and YouTube. Our ad campaigns will be simplistic catering to our industry verticals or unlimited service. Each ending with our catch phrase “Ask a friend” a nod to our exclusive referral only strategy.
• Each user will be granted a username upon downloading the app. This username will also serve as their referral code.
Thoughts, feedback and even criticisms welcomed.
