Mirror

Since day one of trading my intention was to grow. It needed investment so I set prices to pay myself, run a vehicle and have something left.

As other drivers joined I took a slice of their payments. They had other sources of income though, my volume of work was erratic and few journeys linked up.

To encourage driver availability, I worked hard to ensure the business was as efficient as possible with no waste so I could keep my cut to a minimum.

Now we are bigger, with full-time drivers, high volumes of work and real efficiency our commission rates are under review.
