My Low DoorDash Acceptance Rate Caused THIS To Happen

I have been attempting to increase my DoorDash acceptance rate to get into the Diamond Program, but today I made almost no progress in reaching that goal. When I saw my final earnings, I realized I made the right decision today.

Honestly I feel like doordash has been trash in my area and UE has been carrying it this week.

[@PhoenixDeliveries]

I feel like that pretty often haha

[@bowsicraft3]

@@PhoenixDeliveries I know you have a 5-6% acceptance rate. I did have a question for you as far as your hotspot that you sit at. I feel like when I try to cherry pick the volume of my city is just so low in comparison with bigger cities. I find myself accepting less than favorable deliveries (at least break even sometimes). I was curious as to what type of volume you experience during peak hours? And do you find accepting an “ok” delivery is better than just waiting when volume is slow?

[@algram8541]

1% dd ar get SAME orders at 80%. If anyone tells u it matters is lying. (Done 4,000) food delivery on multiple apps. Doordash is a horrible app.

[@Millbro82]

So weird Uber eats for me is garbage.. Always 3-4 miles per dollar for an order... not sure its because I have a 2% acceptance rate? Not rare to see 4 dollars for 18 miles.

[@DebbieSimpson-on7wb]

Ahhhh (5:10) the zone I normally do for DD the Chipolte NEVER EVER has orders ready and a ton of food delivery peeps in there are always complaining to the staff. I sat in there yesterday for 20 min and half the drivers still there waiting and myself so that was the very first time I have dropped an order and left. I took that particular Chipolte off my list of restaurants and will try again if it’s a slow day. My own town that is still in my zone is still building up as it’s new, and we just got a Chipolte so hoping when I Dash and UberEats in my town this one is better. Can’t wait till my own town is all built up more so I don’t always have to go to another town in my zone. Glad some have good Chipolte’s like you do lol! Have your people call my people j/k lol! Love your ideas, and videos, they have helped me being a new delivery driver as of this last Feb and I ❤️❤️❤️ it a lot. 😀!!

The Chipotle in my area has been extremely busy and understaffed. Chipotle= WAIT

[@johnkil3950]

Great video and I know exactly what you're going through I know doradas has been pretty harsh on those that has less than idea except this rate in a diamond zone. Although you may not be able to make top dasher at the end of the month at least the higher your acceptance rate is you'll be able to work with it more with Uber eats

[@chrisphillips9377]

Thanks Jacob, love your channel, you have a unique way of making it flow. I'm struggling with figuring out DD acceptance rate, and your video is a data point indicating that it still just doesn't matter. :)

[@danbrennan-2410]

Appreciate your ongoing curiosity but staying true to your gigging discerning experiences. I have been doing Uber Eats and DoorDash for about six weeks now. Multiple gigging between the two has been the way for me. Last night tho, my worst double stack ever! Uber Eats. Two orders. Same fast food Chinese restaurant. I arrive. One order they had ready. Second order they kept on telling me "a couple more minutes." Again and again and again. 25 minutes later, no typo, 25 minutes later, I got the second order.

[@troypollonais9143]

If more than 10 minutes you wait, drop that hoe like an ugly date

[@KevinT7274]

You must have a really good market to have that low of an AR on both apps and still have a good flow of offers coming in. In my home zone the flow of offers really slows down with a low AR. If I do a 30 minute drive to one particular zone AR doesn't seem to matter nearly as much, the apps, especially Doordash, are much more active.

[@bill3714]

I made it all the way up to 20% yesterday (Friday), then lunch hit and got a solid stream of $6 - 10 mile + offers so right back down to 8%. (DoorDash). I have no idea how you can raise your AR and make any money. Some of the offers are 15 plus miles and would take close to 1 hour to complete. Not working for $15 an hour. Guess I’m in the same boat as you. I keep Uber on and strive for $15 plus orders. Been getting 2-3 a day so that helps.

[@craigcarter400]

I have 29 % on DD and 10% on UE. The quality of orders fluctuates whether I work in Rio Rancho, South Valley ABQ, or Santa Fe. It worked like that in Tempe, Mesa, Gilbert/QC, and lower Scottsdale as well.

[@luceroascencion]

So I had great food orders in the beginning and then I started to get awful orders like $4 for 20 miles!!! And now I am at %38 acceptance and they took me out of dashing I can only schedule which I never can never schedule in my area because it never comes out to schedule or anything around my area 😞. Can you suggest anything for me to do to get back to being able to dash without scheduling??

[@kanita0958]

The Panera in my area hijacks the costumers orders behind their counter. If no one is there you’ll need to wait for someone to come by to give you the order. I literally have to almost go on top of the counter and waive the workers to get their attention 😂 I don’t know why they do that to an order that has already being paid 😤

[@PhoenixDeliveries]

I don’t like going to places like that. It always wastes a couple minutes

[@sl5946]

I did 100% UE yesterday and made $395. I don't need the DoorDash aggravation to make money 😁

[@bobg3221]

I logged onto Uber eats and it’s very slow in my market. I haven’t done it in quite some time so maybe I might venture myself to do it tomorrow. I’m not sure though I actually made pretty good money on DoorDash today. Almost 160 for 8 1/2 hours not too bad I’ll take that sitting in my car and delivering food not bad at all

So little info on the order, & you cant see the pay after accepting or am I missing something? Overall ue seems alot less user friendly. Maybe just my market, but ue offers are more trash than dd, & with no zones, take me way out of my comfort zone. Thoughts?

I run UE and DD at the same time also. If I accept a DD offer and get a better offer from UE before I actually pickup the DD food, I unassign the DD order and do the UE order and vice versa.

[@charlesclaridy8646]

Took an Uber stack yesterday-25.63 was about 14.5 miles. It was in the rural area so it was road miles and it went pretty smooth. Took 35 min. Most really don't want t go to the rural areas, but they pay pretty well so I go. Lately my acceptance rate is dropping because of the ridiculous low offers. Seeing more and more of these lately. Local military base orders are usually pretty good, but I don't deliver since the distance, hassle at the gate and LOOOOW Speed limits don't make it feasible! It's about the bottom line- Max profit, economical use of time.

UE is so much better. Last night I did notice DD giving me full amounts for orders. Didn’t get a single hidden tip and it was showing me full amounts. Did a $18 double for 3.5 miles on DD. Not bad. But UE is showing me $30 orders for less than 10 miles. I’m loving UE not hiding tips. I made $128 in 3.5 hours last night between both apps. Only drove 55 miles total.

Eats sucks. Maybe it's just my area but I only get 2-3 dollar orders for 10 miles. They can starve to death for all I care. If you get an offer on there for $20 you better start looking for a gas station because no matter what you got you'll need more.

[@bobg3221]

Exactly. Uber eats is very slow in my market I used to dash and do Uber eats in Sarasota area and here in Florida and Uber eats was pretty good for a while and then in January 2023. It just fell on its face I guess I don’t know Now I DoorDash in a smaller market in Port Charlotte here in Florida. It’s a lot more closer less travel time from my town that I live in my small town that I live in. It’s OK they’re still building out here finally so we’ll see you in a few more years, maybe I might be able to sit in my house And except offers I don’t know but I know Uber eats in Port Charlotte. I’ve tried it a few times and I literally sat for two hours on Uber eats and nothing.

[@Mister6foot6]

I understand how you feel about taking trash orders. I watch so many gig channel between you, Pedro, Sin City, The Long Island dash exp, and many others. After sucking it up and increasing my AR I’ve seen a tremendous difference, I’ve seen order that I’ve never gotten on top of a lot of Shop and Pay orders. Yesterday I did 15 deliveries through Doordash without declining a single one because all of the orders were reasonable or very good!

[@Mister6foot6]

@iatealready explain???

[@Mister6foot6]

@iatealready honestly I’m not. I have a full time gig that pay me pretty well but I like money so that’s why I so gig work on the side. Thought I would try something different so I did. Surprisingly it worked (in my market) like I said I’ve seen orders with very low mileage that I’ve never seen before.

[@Mister6foot6]

@iatealready well I was strategic about how I did it. Initially I did earn by time (I only did it for a day and a half) to lessen the blow of the no tip orders then once I hit 50% I did earn by order but I still didn’t take orders that didn’t make sense to me. But once I hit 70% like I said 90% of the orders that hit my phone made sense and if they were let’s say $5.50 going for 5 miles I would flick on Uber and catch an order going the same way. So it’s not like I was taking $3 orders 7 miles. That never happend. Like I said strategy. Im not gonna knock you on your opinion so please don’t criticize mine.

[@bobg3221]

@iatealready what do you mean until tax time that’s the thing I don’t understand. Everybody thinks that taxes are so fucking bad with being a 1099 it’s called keeping track of your deductions keeping track of your mileage you can only do either or either keep track of the maintenance and what you spend throughout the year, or keep track of your mileage that you put on your personal vehicle. My opinion is keep track of your mileage that you put on your personal vehicle all year long and you will be OK and yes save a little bit of money for taxes it’s not that bad I just did my taxes this past year and I got $800 back and I did not owe one red cent the maintenance part. The only thing you really need to worry about is just tires that’s all I worry about you don’t need to worry about brakes I can do those myself brakes are easy oil changes no problem, I do it every 10,000 miles very easy the only thing I don’t do is the tires because obviously I don’t have a tire machine to takeoff the tires off the rims and balance them so the maintenance not really that bad man the taxes if you keep it tight and you know what you’re doing not that bad neither the only reason why you say maintenance and taxes are bad is because you can’t do any maintenance on your vehicle or you choose not to another thing is you say something about taxes at the end of the year that’s because you don’t keep up with your numbers it’s a business not a free-for-all so quit trashing on people man if they want to do it, let them do it. Keep your opinions to yourself if you don’t like DoorDash or food delivery because you got burnt one year because you didn’t keep up on your shit. Don’t take it out on everyone else but yourself buddy, good luck be safe God bless build people up don’t tear them down to make you feel better🤙🏻😉
