"Why not have a few ride-share drivers in every city who are also trained to unlock cars? It wouldn't be difficult and once it catches on as an additional service offering, it could quickly add millions of dollars in annual revenue to both businesses, as well as some much needed clout".

While “ride-share”
companies like Uber and Lyft have been around for a few years in other cities,
they only recently hit the streets of Louisville KY. When they finally did, Jon
Taylor was watching closely, very closely. “There were similar challenges that
our business models both faced, and the technology their services used was one
that ours desperately needed” said Taylor, founder and CEO of MrQuickPick car
unlock services. That technology was the gps mobile app and the transparency
that came with it. “If ever there were an industry in need of transparency it
is the entire car unlocking business. Too often a haven for unscrupulous “bait
and switch” tactics and the frequent target of local troubleshooter news
stories, we have been long overdue for some serious industry changes”.
That’s what’s so appealing
about the ride-share app. Facing similar challenges, the ride-share companies
knew that integrity and transparency went hand-in-hand. The customer wants to
see who is coming and know that they've had a background check. They need to
know that the company is legitimate and will do what they say they will do for
the price they say they will charge. They want accountability. All very
important to both the ride-sharing and car unlocking businesses. “I wanted to
be in that loop so much that I became a ride-share mentor (trainer) and
founding driver for Lyft in Louisville”. The hands-on experience with their
mobile app system and the technology they use made it clearer than ever that my
lockout business and this industry needed the same type of platform”.
Now Taylor is taking
that “same” approach a step further, as in the "same" drivers. “Why
not? We’re all driving around town, serving our customers, waiting for the next
call. In fact, ride-share and car unlock drivers spend over half their shifts
doing just that… waiting! Why not have a
few ride-share drivers in each city also trained to unlock cars? It’s only
about a $50 tool kit and we can train most anyone to unlock a car in a
relatively short amount of time. It’s not a dirty or difficult job, in fact
it’s actually kinda fun! Once it catches on as an additional service offering
it could quickly add millions of dollars in annual revenue to both businesses,
as well as a bit more clout. “We’re still in the early stages of gauging
interest, but I truly believe the first company that wants to join forces in
this endeavor will be pleasantly surprised. Let’s run a test market in a
ride-share established area and see what happens. The app is already in place.
Marketing and drivers are in place. We add a few tools, tweeks and
training…look out!”.
