A Collaboration Between

Project Synopsis

We will be working together to first audit our retention of drivers and partners. This will include: developing the formula to calculate churn, finding the churn rate by month, and suggesting the strategy to improve. The objective will be to assess our retention and how to properly calculate. Milestones will include finalizing the formula, calculations, and a plan of action.

Next, the focus will be on acquisition costs. We will work with our marketing team to find our current acquisition cost and the expected ROI of drivers. Milestones will be the formula for driver acquisition costs and calculations. Lastly, suggestions for reducing this cost.

Our Business Development team will work with you to develop a forecast for revenues. This will include an analysis of how it is currently conducted and suggestions for changes. Milestones will be building a forecasting model from scratch based on the knowledge provided of our business model, industry, and partners.

Our team is always looking to expand to new markets and industries for delivery. We will run an analysis of other verticals to execute delivery. Milestones will include an analysis of potential industries to work in. A presentation of barriers of entry, competition, and potential partners and scale of the market.
