What Market are you In?
I'm in Cleveland heights now, I made $200 last night new years eve. But I still multi apped.
Charlotte NC
I’m new to BC
And new to DD
It doesn’t seem that great my first 2 days …
I always take the Plus!
Oh, uhh... Seattle. Bellevue zone. Market is still going strong.
Columbus, OH - Westerville zone
You’re the only guy I subscribe too man. The shop and pay orders you talked about a couple months ago are really paying off. Especially when you shop at those places, easy money.
Just started dashing today! I'm in Queens, NY. Appreciate the video family. Definitely taking this energy !!!🫡😎
The best video so far for 2024.. each zone and restaurant is different in every zone..🙏🏼💯✅ Thanks Pedro nice video 🎥🤔
Much love, bro. Been dashing since October, what about 1700+ deliveries under my belt. You’ve inspired me to share my own experiences via TikTok on CZcams. Haven’t had any pitfalls so far. Your content is always informative and refreshing.
Great video! You really brought a lot of different aspects together in a cohesive way, thank you! This is the best thing I’ve watched for a while now.
Glad it was helpful!
You are the best person on here with your straight up advice. Ive been doing this for 3 years in North Texas. Gonna make an average of 15 hr here, less wear and tear on your vehicle. Not making that much...
True about markets being different. I'm in DFW TX. Im in the LOP so I keep my acceptance at 70 sometimes that means I gotta lace up the clown shoes and take some trash but with the catering orders I get it always balances out for me.
Best tip video I’ve seen so far!! New DoorDasher and subscriber!
I'm in a smaller town of like 18K people in the extremely north part of Wyoming. Everything is completely different in this market, and It's been hard to try and explain to newer dasher's what they need to be requiring for orders. See way to many of them ranting on social media about no-tippers and such. I hate to say it, but I'm awaiting for Tax Time to hit and make the majority of these newer dashers quit. I've already went to a W2 job for my primary income, was disappointed that gig work has had the decline it has in my market. I will still do doordash and Walmart Sparks in some of my down time, but it is nothing like it used to be. Thanks for all the video's Pedro, It helped me become the independent contractor I am today.
Without elaborating much - nobody should take an order less than $1 mile - unless they're heading that way anyways
THIS IS the information I have been LOOKING for!! This is the best YT Channel for .’real time relevant’ content!
I'm now watching this but I saw Doordash Dairies posting a video on how to make money in 2024 and I didn't get halfway thru the video before making a comment, telling people to stop listening to him unless he's in your market and hours later I'm watching your video of you saying the same thing.
This is why you're the only gig subscriber I'd listen to even though I know you're not in NYC. Keep up the good work and I appreciate you being upfront with us.
Thank you… best info ever! This was personal for me. Thank you. Everything you said was… what I have been experiencing. This is so encouraging. Thank you.
Knowing your area is huge. Learning about drive back time when delivering to an area with no restaurants and then factoring that in to your miles is a game changer.
Keep up the good work. I doordash in Perth Australia so it's a bit different to the states but I enjoy your videso
Thank you. I Dash in Peterborough Ontario. Lots of hills, pot holes, icy roads, and slow drivers. In the Spring our roads flood leaving people stranded. Our city started booming in 2010 so now there's bad traffic during rush hours.
The absolute best video you have ever made. I agree and use every single tip that you’ve put in here. I’ve been doing DoorDash for a number of years now and have had great success with it.
I’m about to make my first DoorDash on Monday in Omaha Nebraska. Thanks for the info
Good tips, Pedro. 💯💯💯
I’m in Ann Arbor, MI running 7 apps right now. Gig economy is pretty healthy here.
DoorDash is only a fraction of my gig income now, maybe around 50 bucks a week. My AR is about 30 and I still get large orders. I had to start saying NO to trash on all of my platforms & it’s paying off. Really glad I have more options these days.
You run 6 apps simultaneously and only accept best orders?
Please explain what you do and how you do it?
@@jrew3569 I only run all 7 apps simultaneously if it’s extremely slow, otherwise I turn them on in order of highest average earnings. I usually start with Amazon Flex Whole Foods or Walmart Spark.
@@fredc8618 I do Grubhub, DoorDash, Uber Eats, dlivrd, DeliverThat, Amazon Flex & Walmart Spark. I have Point Pickup, but the orders are a bit far away from me. I turn on the highest average earning apps first. dlivrd gives me catering orders the day before which gives some structure to my gig work since DooDash doesn’t give me as many catering orders as they used to. I use standard food delivery orders to fill in gaps between higher paying grocery/package delivery/catering/shopping orders. Sometimes I do regular food delivery when I’m not in the mood to lift heavy things.
your one of those drivers... with like 4 accounts and 10 phones huh? Spread the wealth!
Thank you for the + idea I never knew that before
You are such an inspiration! I’m a new Dasher in Shreveport/Bossier La. Only problem I’ve had is avoiding bad practice business and delivering in high crime areas near me.
Stay safe :/
I've learned to look carefully at the map before accepting because I've had to go into bad areas too.
But when those kids came out the front door excited for thier burgers... That puts a smile on my face and joy in my heart!
I always have someone watching me on the app as well as Google too.
@Pedro Happy 2024! This Was Spot ON! THANKS
Thank you Pedro always appreciate your help 😊
Thanks Pedro! Happy New Years!! I Love Your Content! Me and My Wife Dash In New Hampshire and Love Our Community! Great Market! Dash Safe Everyone 😁
Another good tip.
Despite what a lot of gig tubers like to tell you, there's nothing wrong with going back to W2 work. If you've tried everything you can think of, and it's just not hitting in your market, stop throwing good time after bad.
Aaaaaamennnnnn. Do what works for you. Keep pushing.
Then, do gig work as a side hustle. It may make your driving time more enjoyable.
Consider starting a small business. It’s not difficult, and it’s a tremendous advantage economically, the write offs are amazing. I’ve had a few for example, detailing cars. Use gig apps to fill-in while you get off the ground.
Yeah, thinking about it, this would be perfect because all of us at times need our car cleaned and it would be very easy for you to get the word out to fellow drivers. The hard part always is finding reliable, hard workers.
@@susannearmenta4758how do you do this if you don’t mind me asking. The write offs I mean ?
Awesome tips Pedro. The key thing you said, this does depend on the market. Im in SC, in a congested rural town. Orders go from 0.6 miles to 14 miles. Some good and some bad. However, most of your advice has really helped me out. I appreciate the time you take to spread the knowledge. May this New year exceed all of our expectations.
I'm from South Carolina too. About to start dashing in Myrtle Beach. Wish me luck!
I really need luck this year Jesus because last year was suck in all the ways man but I’m still fighting god continue blessing you ❤️🙏
Bozeman/ Belgrade / Livingston MT. I work locally as a Truck driver, but in the area I am in it's hard to survive. So I signed up for door dash but know NOTHING! I'm glad u made this video
Reminder to NOT confirm any pick up on Add on orders until u have both orders in hand…happened today at Chilis….1st order was ready….2nd order waiting over 10 minutes and was able to unassigned for no penalty…THEN confirm the 1st order and onto the next opportunity
Started doing this last night. Don't even know what made me think of it but it makes sense lol.
I remember the week that I made $8 an hour after my gas expenses it was rough I was still roughly new but i for sure didn’t accept trash 😂
I’m in the Los Angeles area. Man the tips are bangin. I pickup any run even if it’s negative because most likely where I’m going I get another order
The issue with my location is Distance to and back to the hot zones.. I have a lot of rural deliveries, therefore I always take that travel back to the area I want to be in. I do try my best to get to an area that will possibly get me an order on the way back but that is not always a guarantee. So your example of the 19 for 11 miles, I will take that. However the only time I will ever take the 3.00 is if im trying to keep my acceptance rate up.. This is a side job for me so the Dash anytime is important due to the fact that I only have certain times to do it. As usual Pedro, you are completely on point and its nice to see someone else in the same headspace. Keep up the good work sir.
I'm in your market. I'm in St. Louis. So, your content is helpful for me especially!
great job brother u are 10000000% correct and im in chicago its up and downs but mostly ups anyways another blessed day something better then nun have a great blessed day besafe always and drive safe always happy holidays to u and your family
Happy New Year to you and your family, Pedro! I dash in the DMV area, (Northern Virginia)
I'm new to this, so thank you very much.
75% of the time when I take an order out of my zone it gives me a really high paying order taking me back lol it's so crazy to see all the different experiences honestly, what works for people what doesn't, the best advice I can give is never stress this is supposed to be a very low stress job no boss all that so that is most certainly the best part of the job
Idk about low stress. I've been threatened by random food employees for asking about my order. I've gotten flat tires. I've almost been hit by drunk drivers on several occasions. Yeah you can pick your own hours but as a delivery person you are in more occupational danger than a police officer. Not to mention you're risking/using your own car...
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 it was the “no stress” part for me! It’s been fun and I enjoy it! My son rides with me.
Hey Pedro!
Hope you're doing well!🎉❤
Excellent tips to consider!🎉❤ Stay stafe n may all your shifts be prosperous!🎉❤
Hey Pedro, great tips. I am in the southeast market of Orlando. It is a good size market but it is oversaturated. You need to use your thinking cap when it comes to what to accept and what to turn down.
Im in the NYC NJ area and the best places to go is the MALLS!! Anywhere near a major HIGHWAY you will have plenty of places to eat. and also the NJ shore is a hot spot and in Central nj DINNER TIME and the mornings on the weekend are busy Walmart is a huge pick up as well
Asheville, NC. Some crazy gravel little roads in this mountain town. it may take and additional 10 mins ro find the house behind the house.
Hey Pedro. Been watching for 3 years. 17000 deliveries. Been low AR high AR. I have always taken your tips and used them as they pertain to my market. I adjust as needed. Your tips have really helped as long as I use them as my market dictates. I'm in a suburb of indianapolis. Use to do shop and deliver but low tips here in this area so I no longer do those. Pizza delivery is money here. Thanks for your tips. You are right. They do work as long as you apply them to your area
I’m in Hobart thank you for these videos much appreciated
Tip #1: Don't go to Dollar General 🙂
😂😂😂
I agreed😅
Man they suck the worst store ever
Shit I love dg orders usually pay good and I'm fast so I do a lot of shop and deliver
Kroger delivery is starting ppl off at 19per hr using there vehicle
Thanks for good advice for me.
Middle tn here i keep top dasher so i can end a far dash and start up in another zone because our zones are skinny some areas only a few main streets.
Really really dope video and positive information. Thank you 🙏🏾.
I'm in the north east RI my state is 5 zones I work a burbs zone it's kind of good except you can order from almost anywhere in my state to anywhere even if 30 plus miles
Had an order that left me in the middle of nowhere last nite. Learned my lesson to pass that up next time
My money makers are surprisingly McDonald’s, chipotle, and some local restaurants. It’s very interesting!
I live in LaPorte Tx Houston area , but for the next month I will be in the Flint and Grand Rapids Michigan area working so I’m learning right now 😊 because Michigan is not an area I normally work . And dang also not gonna be used to the cold brrrr
im a new driver and have only been at it 3 days but in the DFW area its been Fantastic! Luckily havent had to many hiccups but those 3 story apartment buildings kill my knee! Only thing i have issues with is with other drivers at pickup locations 99% of them are rude and act as if i just stole their girlfriend or ran over their dog. thanks for the videos, your help us newbies out!!
Just remember: You arn in the Honeymoon Phase with them right now. In two months the honey moon it will be over and you will see what other drivers are complaining about. The newer drivers will start getting higher pay priority since you will no longer be like a new spouse to them etc. Then you will either take sorry paying orders to keep your top status or find out like many of us that the only way to really make a profit(which should be your goal) is to cherry pick and multi-app! This ain't a charity, Don't let them abuse you!
I take high pay orders with long miles because the dead time drive back usually gets something from UEats and sometimes from DD
I just started December 27th, and my market is Philadelphia. Specifically, NE Philly… what I’ve learned;
-distance matters most
-peak pay is crucial
-$2 per mile is necessary
-anything over 5 miles requires $3 per mile (5 miles = 15 minutes one way)
-people don’t tip or tip well
I’m still testing out different hours, day, and different zones. I recently had my best day in a new zone, but it was 6 hours of $3 peak pay
Try the Bryn mawr zone for better tips
Hi I just moved in Huntingdon Valley which is right outside of NE Philly and I am having horrible luck out here. The Bryn Athyn zone is not good, the NE philly zone isnt good. Jenkintown isnt as good as I thought it would be. The Bensalem zone is somewhat better than the other ones. The tips in all of these zones are crappy compared to the zone I came from. I used to live in the Ft Washington/Horsham zone and it was so much better in that zone. I am still sometimes driving out to that zone to make money but its a bit of a drive so I am using miles driving to and from there. I think I may try the pay per hour in the Bryn Athyn zone today and see how that goes for me
@@mickeyc2137 hours definitely matter, I found between 6-9am & 5-8pm to be the best times. Also, 11pm-2am is very busy but the pay is typically low because you’ll get horrible tips
Branso/Hollister MO is my zone at the moment.
Long travel. Lots of 10 mile orders
Good video, newbies should watch this
BANGER!!! DD order, Thursday night--$47.54 TIP on a 2 stop order
I’m in Live Oak Florida, population 7000-10000 we have 23 restaurants available and orders are relatively consistent. But recently has been very bad. Looking forward to things picking up.
I work in downtown Chicago primarily in River North. I’m usually a Top Dasher, which definitely makes a difference in my earnings.
I’ve been working more dinner and 3rd shift lately. Nothing else to do that late at night anyways so might as well make some money and it suits my lifestyle. I exercise in the morning, eat and sleep and then out the house by 5pm when it gets busy. There’s not much of a breakfast or dinner rush in my market anymore. Instacart has been popping off lately though for me.
Great advice and Happy New Year
I finally gave up dashing. I have a regular job but dashed on the weekends for 3 years. I’m 45 miles north of Houston and my market is flooded with immigrants that will take any order. They have 2 or 3 people using one account. It was almost impossible to schedule unless it was pouring rain. Then my zone was lit up.
How do you know they were immigrants? Let me guess. You just assumed so cause they're brown
@@yofasassburgers5Shut up!!! When you are living in an area and in a particular type of job you know very well who does what in your own town. In my town I can figure out who’s doing what. It’s not rocket science it’s called common sense!!!
@@yofasassburgers5And yes! Immigrants are a bunch of sleazy, disgusting, cheats!
I can dash from my home and get orders 2-3 minutes away, I live in a semi-decent zone.... this particular area has little to no traffic lights, 90% of drop offs are within 5 minutes... such a golden area those are the areas people need to look for imo
Thanks for the Tips......Sacramento Ca. here............
Pedro this is my fave video to date!
Good tips. honestly it’s looking real good for me so far. Ended the year with 250$ on 31st and started 2024 with 145$ today cant complain and just with Uber eats 🙏
Same! Im glad I worked the holidays! Learned those are the best days to dash
@@cassandrafertahi1654 Honestly here in charlotte seems about to be a little different. Ive had ups and down after thanksgiving and thought by working on the 31st and 1st would be also a waste of time but no actually picked up after xmas
Cool, a fellow St. Louisian! I dash in Ofallon, MO area on the weekends, pretty good out there.
Long island new york there is money here but as far as i can tell your AR dose matter and you do need too keep it as high as possible
Looking at $$$ collectively!🏆💪🏼🏆
Mesa Arizona Mr.Batonyou keep up the good content
Mr. Bet On You
So true pedro!! It took me three years to find the right zone to make good money.I only dash 5 hours a day and average 1200 a week.
I am knew to this and I am in the South Shore of Boston Mass. I want to thank you for all the tips I have learned from watching your videos.:)
Pedro every time you make a video I feel like you’re a teacher in the classroom teaching us. Like as if we are in high school.
Everything I have already experienced in the couple of years I have done food delivery gig work.
Thank you for the advice
Best thing is to keep a spreadsheet tracking your average hourly rate. When you have a 15/hr day you don’t feel so bad cause you know your average for the month/year is much higher and it all comes out in the wash.
That’s the only thing that keeps me from losing my shit when I have a day that’s like 15-17/hr
Sometimes i well take the $3 for a mile if it is an addon to a good order i already have. These for me will often be like $12 for 3 miles for example. Or if i just dropped off a good paying order and one comes in for $3 and the pick up and delivery are close to where i am at that makes me happy. It doesn't happen all of the time but its nice to make a $6 order turn into 9 bucks for very low driving
I live in the middle of no where on a market line where i have to drive to the east or west "city" to see the market pop up. It's awful. But there was this snow storm yesterday and the dash turned every order into a +$5 delivery. Generally our orders are all over are over 15 miles and under 6 dollars. Dash by hour is now available but i live on the state line where it pays 15 a hour or 7.50 depending on if i go left or right 5 miles.
Antioch CA about 30 Mi away from Sacramento. I just happened to live close to all the restaurants all the fast foods all the dealerships I don't have to travel I can just sit at home and put my phone on I get orders sitting on my couch
I always tell new people that they can't think by the hour, you have to go out for a good chunk of time to see good income.
I'm in st louis too. Getting back into the game after a couple years out of it
Thank you for the tips
You are a great guy !
How to maximize your dd earnings. Don’t do it. And in Delaware some good orders but a lot of trash and dead areas that leave you in the middle of nowhere
I would say, depending on your market, I have noticed that if you can get your acceptance rate up enough and then get top dasher the orders that they give, you are good enough that you don’t even have to worry about watching on your mileage very much because they’re all very good and then you just have your acceptance rate stay up higher indefinitely
My current acceptance rate is 94percent... before I get the heat. I make 1.5 dollars a mile, usually 250-300 a day... My average order is 10-15 per order. The highest I saw my ar was 97 percent.. At that level, I was seeing only 15-20 per order...
I work in Flint Michigan. Been doing Doordash for 1 year. My market is troubled with low/$$ offers. Too many Doordash drivers! Less offers per hour/no tip offers. Trying other apps but slow going. Frustrated
I was about to go back to a w2 last year. Was done with doordashes games but I got approved for flex. I was on the waiting list for a while but somewhat worth it. I average 8 to 1200 just from that app a week
@@Goldensimba815What is flex ?
Im in Zanesville Ohio. About 40 minutes east of Columbus. We are 25k people. Lots of rural deliveries. Tons of $2-$4 for 12-14 miles. Good runs here are $4-$5 for 1 to 2 miles. Almost no catering. Lots of shopping, but no money there.
I am a new dasher. Literally one month in. I cherry pick. I average 22/30 per hour. I only dash between 1130am and 430pm. My area has roughly 14000 people..smaller city but overall alot of food places. I normally dash and average of 2 active hours most times i go out.
Thanks for the tips. I actually don't have a car, working on passing my driver's license so I can eventually get a car. I've been considering doing Doordash/Instacart/UberEats on the side with a full time job. I'm in the city (Massachusetts) so there are things like rush hours (I've seen this either riding Uber to work or getting on the train). My main goal is to save up extra so I can go into University and get my Master's in CS (if they approve me/allow me in since I have a non-tech degree).
@gardenstatePR Thank you 💛
Money is not meant to control people, rather it is meant to be put to work producing more money for you. You cannot build wealth without putting money in its rightful place.
Now with the recent economy, To get Financial FREEDOM you have to be making money while you're asleep.
True though unfortunately mine always end up with losses 😭
Most new traders make the mistake of trading in their own without having the required skills to help them benefit from the market. I was once like that but all changed thanks to expert Brian Nelson
I don't really blame people who panic. Lack of information can be a big hurdle. I've been making more than $21k passively by just investing through an advisor, and I don't have to do much work. Inflation or no inflation, my finances remain secure. So I really don't blame people who panic.
Mr Brian is a sincere man who understands the challenge faced by beginners. I started trading Bitcoin under his guidance after seeing his interview with CNDH, he dose not request for any chargers to teach investors on how to trade and generate profit for themselves .
Ive had a couple of bad directions issues in ny first week with uber that cost me time. I do like the dd app better
Hi Pedro. I am working in Northern Claifornia, a city of about 100,000 people. Solid tipping, but seems to be getting saturated with too many drivers. I am a platinum/top dasher for the last 9 or 10 months at least.
DD is now for bigger markets. If you're in a smaller market, you should probably get a w2, at least a part time one. It's just hard to be successful in a small market, where delivering out of your zone means you're in the middle of nowhere
I work in a small market in the foothills of NC.. 50% of my orders will take me out of town into the countryside.. I have no choice but to drive back to town.. sometimes it might take me to another town, but it is always rural.. it can be a lot of times be a lot of driving.. 110 miles N of Charlotte..
I agree with you and I like your tips thank you. I appreciate it. The one that kills me. The most is when you say don’t take a high-paying order that leaves you in the middle of nowhere. I completely understand that but in my market sometimes you have to do that yes it sucks completely, but you know what for example say it was $21 +7.8 miles and it left me out in the middle of nowhere I’m still taking that order because it still makes money no matter what happens I’m up $21 plus then when I was before my car gets very good gas mileage and I have a new car cars are meant to be driven so that one it’s give or take to be honest just like you said every markets different
As a experienced dasher this video is 10/10
Gotta adapt to multiapping at all times as well. I run all 3 everyday!!!!
I deliver Downtown Columbia SC. Most of my trips are short. I have more of a turn and burn mentality. Make these new drivers learn for themselves. I'm not giving up my secrets, but I will help procedural.
As someone who also does downtown Columbia, how much do you usually make? So fun to see someone else from here
@@GeorgeWalton-bt9pv from 11-4 prolly between 80-120. With 3 apps. DD by itself just wasn't getting it done anymore. I usually hang out in 5 points. Wish I could ban Dashmart.
Took the Words right out of my mouth Pedro when you said stop listening to content creators and do what you know is best for you and your market. I’ll tell people that all the time. That is the best advice ever 😎
