@dejrand 3 жыл бұрын

The key takeaway I got from this is while yes they had big competition, they found a way to do things differently and much better, they provided a service in delivery while the others just did menu sharing. Thats why they survived if they tried to do the same thing they would've failed, now they all caught on and all deliver but it's too late they've already ate up the market. When you start a company in a competitive field, find a unique angle on the problem that no one is adressing. Otherwise you will feel the crush of intense competition and higher budgets.

Honestly I just think today's consumers have turned into just funnels for transferring cash from one merchant to another. Think about it: you place an order for a $10 burrito. You then have to pay a delivery fee (say $3), a commission fee, taxes, tip, etc and the whole order may come out to like $15. Is it convenient? Yes. But how do you possibly justifying paying an extra 50% over and above? You work really hard for the money you earn. You should work equally hard on retaining it. But today's consumers spend very easily yet overwork themselves to the point of burnout. It makes no sense.

Time is money! It's also the one resource you can't make more of later.

@tokhmi2006 3 жыл бұрын

@@MVDrudge A professional who earns more than like 200 bucks an hour can say that. Otherwise if ur a middle class person making 75 bucks an hour, you can’t really say time is money. You probably have an underoptimized investment portfolio. You probably waste money in other ways. So don’t now try to be all smart and say time is money by ordering. Say I’m lazy or suck at cooking.
