As we slowly crawl out into re-opening our society, I think we’re going to see a slow down in the delivery economy.

·        People may be tiring of delivery

·        People are running out of money

·        People are starting to go out more

·        We’re getting into summer now which is normally slow

·        There was such a glut of drivers who just signed on that we’re looking at a saturation of drivers to available orders

Whether it’s slower delivery business, or things like app crashes and glitches, the common denominator I see by people impacted most by these things seems to be they rely on only one app.

As things slow down, what can we do to prepare for the changes? 

Remember that you’re running a business. These apps are your customers. Don’t get so dependent on just one customer that if something changes with that relationship, you’re screwed. Keep your options open.

We talk about three stages of moving into working multiple applications. You may decide to stop at stage 1, stage 2 or go through all 3. I highly recommend at least going to stage 1.

We also talk about how well the different apps work in a multiple platform environment.
