thanks for the info man I've been driving for a few months doing pretty well. I only Drive Friday and Saturday's you know 10pm to like 4am in the downtown to hollywood area. I didn't know about a lot of these things so thanks for the heads up.
My pleasure! Definitely take advantage of all the new tools!
Lyft has picked up in SF too, no pun intended.
watched it today in San Francisco Bay Area. thanks for the info.
Thanks for watching, David!
Great info, but tough production quality. Thanks for the effort EZRA
Thanks for the feedback! I'm a newbie with livestreams and learning that if something can go wrong live, it probably will! The live vids will get better and the info in this vid will be covered much more in-depth in a new vid I'll be releasing very soon!! 😀
Nice to see you in the live stream game man! Production is decent, think you just need to wipe the lens, keep a microfiber cloth in your car or with your gear. Upgrades to streaming could be mics (I use the Rode Video MicMe and Rode smartLav +), gimbals (looking into the DJI Osmo Mobile) and tripods (using the GorillaPod Pro 'mini tripod').
Your sound quality is good so a mic would be pretty optional. The connection issue is funny, UA-cam tells me I have a bad connection but the stream is fine, much like I see here. A gimbal could be useful if you'll be doing a lot of walking live streams like this.
Keep it up and hope to catch more live streams from you!
Thank you for the great feedback! Very helpful! 😀
Will you be making a video about Uber now allowing tipping? I was very happy to hear this news.
Yeah, it is great news! I'll discuss it soon. Let's see how it actually works in real life first! Lyft has had a tipping option for years, but it wasn't that great until this year... It all depends on how visible it is to customers and how much it's encouraged.
Preach it!
lol, yes! Thanks for watching, Sergio!
Thank you! Very Helpful Video....I am fairly new to LYFT, and live in Birmingham, AL. A lot of your tips were very helpful, especially when you are a driver in what is classified as an "rural area!" I am definitely trying to figure out every way possible to maximize my daily earnings and get the word out in the community about LYFT. Open to suggestions, how to get the word out, "I was thinking about having cards printed through VISTAPrint..." Also, if you have info, suggestions or a link on how to use referral codes for riders, it will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

If you have the money from this channel consider getting an active gimbal mount. Amazing how you can now make videos like this.
I would love to get one of those someday!

Can riders request to stop for food on their route? Do lyft pay just mileage or by the time spent upon arrival to the rider destination?
really curious to see what is going to happen with the new uber tipping option.. was always trying to provide a happy and friendly ride so they could leave a high rating.. additionally I bought a charging station cause I hate loose cables that get all tangled up which substantially increase my tips.. the charging station is available at www.powapod.com
I'm a new Lyft driver, how do I capitalize on and find out about the prime time in Atlanta. Please help!!!!

Hi do I need two cell phone driving for both UBER and LIFT?
I'm 18 and live near the Chicago area but I need a rental would it be better to do it with lyft ?
Hey Labraun, first you'll wanna check the requirements for your area about driving for these services in general (usually you need to be licensed for at least a year) and unfortunately, most rentals require you to be 25 because the liability is just too much with younger drivers
Do you drive Full time?
What was the most money you made in one day driving for Uber or Lyft?
Any info on how BOSTON is doing with UBER/LYFT, new driver to start as soon as I pass whatever background
Any Boston drivers out there who can help Jose? Jose, from what I would guess, Boston is probably a good market to drive in. You have tourists and sports fans year round and colleges as well.
I hope you'll be able to get your own car...
Wilber, do you see a lot of Prime Time on your map every day?
Do you see Prime Time as well? The pink on the map? Here in LA we get +300 every day it seems like lately
I'm not feeling Lyft lately!! They had the ordasity to send me a ride request 23 minutes away. I'm saying to myself, do they pay for my gas? No. Do they pay for me to travel the 23 minutes? No. Will my rider cancel when I'm 6 minutes away? 80% chance!!! Stop playing. My Lyft is officially on punishment!!!!!
+Ali-Baski TopGun I would suggest ignoring requests that wouldn't be profitable, like the one you described
The only person that would is somebody that was born yesterday or the day before, lol.
So why are you getting upset about it? Just ignore the requests and wait for better ones. The system works the way it works. You understand that. So now make it work for you! 😀
Ok, I'm giving Lyft more run slowly, but surely.
What does listen you when you drive for them or do you just drive
Left I mean , do they mail anything to you like stickers for window
1:38 😂😂😂😂😂
"Like I said, we're live!" 😂😄😀 Benjamin, thank you for reminding me of this funny moment!!!!
Rideshare Genius Thank You! I think watched that part about ten times lol. I just started with Lyft last week, this video has helped me greatly!
What cars do you recommend for uber/lyft?
I think it depends on your situation. Do you want to use the car for personal use as well? Do you plan to drive for Uber/Lyft full time? For just a few months or longer?
Nicholas Anderson good gas mileage car, at least 25mpg or better.
Im buying a car and hopefully the Uber driving covers the cost of owning the car that's why I'd be driving and maybe a little extra, I was thinking maybe starting on a weekend night when it's busiest but I don't really know how much I'd want to do it I'm assuming prob at most a few days a week but prob just when it's busy. I mean I think most of the non-luxury cars look the same/similar so the only cars aside from a Prius I was leaning toward were Volkswagen but I kept getting people telling me that there would be a ton of repairs and to not get a VW for Uber unless I drive like less than 15k a year total, also I was considering getting a luxury car for select it seemed most people were saying don't do a BMW/Mercedes/Audi (which I honestly would prob enjoy driving the most) and maybe go Japanese Infiniti/Lexus/Acura and consider hybrid but since there aren't many select rides (In Los Angeles) that you'd probably have to do a lot of X rides so owning a luxury car probably doesn't make sense. I mean if I pick up more work I was thinking of not Ubering anymore and just doing this in the meantime, I mean once I get a car I have to pay $100 for parking a month, whatever insurance is probably $150-200 or more and then obv gas and prob a little extra for maintenance stuff/cleaning. Long story short after looking at a ton of cars prob for like hours on end, I really liked the Mazda 6 Grand touring but it has low profiles and I don't know what your advice is on low profiles and doing Uber, also there was some Accord Hybrids from 2014 but they had over 110k miles in my budget. I can spend up to like ~18k on a car but I'm thinking a 10-12k used Prius with over 100,000 miles makes the most sense but for a grand or two more I can get one with way less miles. Anyways sorry for the novel my ideal car would have been a Luxury Car / German Car (like a CC/Passat CC), any thoughts here? My last car was a Lexus IS300 and I really enjoyed driving it but I haven't had a car for a while and I don't want to rack up too many additional expenses such as costly repairs. I don't know if you've covered all that like the Luxury/German Car for Uber? but I'd love a video on it. I'm assuming maybe it's like a calculation of earnings per mile Uber/.90 cents (or if it's surging) to cost of owning per mile plus maybe depreciation.
As you can tell, there's a lot of factors that go into this! I don't have experience with luxury or German cars. I think from purely a rideshare perspective you want to get a reliable vehicle that keeps your costs low while still being safe and nice enough that you won't get bad ratings because of the car. Beyond that, it's really just personal preference!
Same here. I'm in San Diego and I've noticed that Lyft requests have increased and I think it's due in part to #deleteuber. I've even had a Lyft rider that said she won't ride Uber and I believe it's cause she's Lesbian.
Yeah, I've had many Lyft passengers mention they won't use Uber anymore.
if you think there's some good information this video you should reshoot it and not spend half your time talking about your internet connection
Thanks for the feedback, Jeff. It was a live video.
Rideshare Genius oh that's why you talked about your internet connection and stupid s*** because it was live like I said if you think your videos for for watching please redo it. I'm saying talking about your poor internet connection is not good content do you enjoy it when other people talk about their poor internet connection and apologize for being four days since they made their last video and by the way the milks can be bad in 3 days
Actually did you think anybody who watch that video. That it wasn't live when it was found when you tell people it's live and that you have a poor internet connection but you're going to try to make a good video and put it up
Picture isn't the greatest
Lyfts a scam, all these people who praise it do it to push thier promo code
#deletelyft how's is lyft better I think they worst they just hide behind Uber's shady behavior their prices are cheaper then Uber and they take 25% off the drivers how are they any better I drive for both and I really hate them both
They both are so bad and considering joining a taxi base I juts pay a 100 dollars a week then the rest of the profit I get to keep and their prices are 300% more drivers should stop driving for both of the taxi bases also have applications now day don't let yourself get deceived the ending game is still the self driving cars they both here to try to monopolize the taxi industry using the drivers to accomplish their selfish goals
Lyft sometime steals the drivers tips
+kingprophecy false
that's a lie
