Accepting EVERY DoorDash Dasher Offer For EIGHT Hours

[@YourDriverMike]

⚡Here's the BEST strategy for every offer type you'll see as a Dasher: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lYKpkqCjZpyLpqc&t

[@barndude5562]

I think you should try to follow this with a similar challenge of cherry picking. That way we would get a fair comparison! Turn all the food apps on & take the best offers for 8 hrs!

[@mluterancik]

There's no comparison. Cherry picking while multi apping wins every time.

[@AJAJ-s9w]

There has been one consistent and very clear result in all of these videos. If you take every single order that comes into your phone. Your going lose money and be severely upside down in your dollar to mile ratio.

[@MichaelMeasho-s9s]

Net loss all day! The worst part is the mental draining, you feel stupid and you took your car down with you as well. Your labor and your car feeling worthless

[@caliopeknows844]

Taking a picture of the order is a confirmation that the dasher picked up the correct order and drinks if any were included. Dasher cannot be accused of forgetting drinks or picking up wrong order. Don't open the bags though. It's up to the restaurant to bag the order correctly.

[@AJAJ-s9w]

The apps want to pay minimum. In fact, if it was possible. They would make drivers pay to have the privilege of delivering their orders.

[@AJAJ-s9w]

In addition to their low paying base wages. They often allow customers to take advantage of drivers by no tipping or low balling tips.

[@BigL718]

Here's my perspective as a driver and customer who worked for tips for a while. I pay for a dash pass and still get charged delivery FEES!😂 Then they have a $2.99 direct to me. So I'm giving DD $120 a year for dash pass to still pay fees. I always order near by so its ridiculous that they have a fee. So i normally tip around 8-10 bucks. I noticed the more i tip the longer my order takes. So then I started tipping less and my food arrived fast.😂 So I'm done tipping good. There's a guy who orders by me who used to tip $5 every time for this 1.2 mile trip. He quit tipping also. I understand why. So if there's no incentive to tip good there's no point. You're better off typing 0.00

[@teelong5265]

It's not the customer's responsibility to get you up to accurate pay that is DoorDash responsibility. They shouldn't be offering nobody two or three dollars for a trip. DoorDash is your payer not the customer for a tip. A tip is not mandatory but to pay somebody for driving all over town is.

[@AwakenToReality]

My thing is: I usually do not mind tipping but there are days when you don’t really got it but want a nice meal? Paying for the delivery is probably the only option without tipping. Like someone said it’s not the customer responsibility to give you good tips to make it reasonable for you to be paid for. DoorDash need to dish out money for you guys especially how much money they make from Dashpass monthly subscriptions from their customers.

[@demare2921]

@@BigL718 dasher here. there’s so many factors to why your order may be taking a while. As a Dasher, we are not in control of the store not having your order ready. We are so are not in control of their being traffic.

[@PlatinumX0]

And don’t forget the tip baiting which is technically literally illegal they just are banking on the fact that nobody who drives for these delivery apps would either have the knowledge or education to know that that is an actual literal breach of contract and could be taken through the civil court and won or even if the people driving have enough knowledge and education and information to be able to know that that type of issue should go through the courts and would be favorable winning for them. The apps are banking on the fact that nobody who does this job has the resources available meeting the time and the money available to actually go through the process of a court hearing to file suit against the person who breached the contract, a.k.a. the tip BAITER. I’ve been hung up on my support before because when I drop that bomb on them, they really didn’t have any response because they knew it was true that I could take the customer to court and win so they hung up on me.😂

[@coreymoto]

Listen good luck to you what I will say is stay away from the negative…get out and make the money you need and what makes sense to you. Every market pays different every driver is different everyone’s ratings are all over the place and that all makes difference in what offers you will get…anyone in any market can make the most in that market now is it going to be what I make in my market or someone else’s you never know so just because someone accepts a order doesn’t mean you have to and just cause someone decline a order you don’t have to just follow what you are ok with and what money you want by the end of your dashing day.

[@LJohnson88]

Every time I decline some low paying $3-$5 order another one pops up within ten seconds and it’s triple the low offer or higher. DoorDash really makes me mad.

[@croszdrop1]

Seems to do this when you are very close to losing top priority or about to gain it. I imagine they do it intentionally to people who are flagged as not everyday drivers or maybe its a bit of round robin. If they have too many people on platinum that dash everyday then no one will get constant good orders.

[@datazndood]

@@croszdrop1People who dash everyday should get priority vs weekend drivers I think for putting in the sweat equity. Since you’re banking on risky venture of no insurance or safety net recourse for a job should you be deactivated. Weekenders have a job waiting in Monday if things don’t work out.

[@patricethorpe9430]

True. So maddening

[@Sparky00024]

What makes me mad is when I decline an offer then it sends me it again for less money then again like the first two declines meant as much to them as a woman’s no means to a r@pi$t. I said no the first time for a reason, don’t try to make me take it for less at that then penalize me for saying no multiple times. No means no, not ask me until maybe I change my mind.

Lol they might be mad but they are laughing at you. Lol

[@nextshotsonme]

Dasher: I’m going to take every offer for 8 straight hours! Also Dasher: but not this one

[@croszdrop1]

sometimes It seems like the algorithm plays game with you. It be like; Today, you get every catering order. Every order $12+ under 8 miles and a new close order immediately after delivery in the same zipcode. Then other days its all 5$ +12 miles through construction zones where you have to drive an extra 6 miles to get to apartments that have no signs for the address numbers xD.

[@YourDriverMike]

Not this Dasher, I accepted every offer I was sent!

[@AJAJ-s9w]

Why do Tubers keep doing this foolish challenge? I have seen numerous videos over the past years of other Utubers doing this vary challenge.

[@AJAJ-s9w]

The only real differdence is the time spent doing them has been different. There has been one thing consistent with all of them. If you take every single order that comes into your phone. Your going lose money and be upside down in your earnings.

[@AJAJ-s9w]

There are just too many upside down orders for this challenge to be profitable or make any kind of sense.

[@Edsecondstocomply]

As a danger I see some of the other dashers around here . . . I absolutely do not want some of these folks opening and looking at my food. I'd rather get a wrong order tbh

[@Dazlidorne]

22:58. You will get more no tip deliveries when doing EBT. That is most of the reason that DD has it, but you will still get tips and I've even had customers tip in cash while doing EBT.

I've been thinking a lot about that recently. My last DoorDash run I had 4 hours of dash time and 45 minutes of active time. In California, we have some nice benefits -- one of which is a quarterly healthcare stipend if you work a certain number of hours per week ($735 for 15 hours per week, $1470 for 25+ hours). I have weeks of like 40 dash hours but less than 10 active hours (and that's not with like cherrypicking, I have hours of receiving 0 orders total). I'm trying to do the thing but DoorDash is actively not serving me enough orders. They control the algorithm and the benefits of the algorithm, it's really messed up.

[@stevewoodyt]

I tried earn by time the other day. The first two customers I ended up with both tipped well. The third offer was a stack going opposite directions both without tip. Tanked my earnings quick.

[@debbiejury9616]

Those who don't want to tip don't take into consideration the cost of what door dash drivers do every day. The cost of gas, regular maintenance like oil changes, tires etc.. that comes at a price for the convenience of not going out to get it yourself.

[@christopherduryea7966]

I think it’s a great thing that DoorDash wants you as a dasher to verify with the restaurant staff the customers order at the time of pick up. Customers can claim item’s missing from their order. Finger pointing can start from the customer- dasher / dasher to the customer /&/or restaurant. Remember in the past, dasher wind up paying for customer missing item.

[@alishathelibra1021]

Taking photo of receipt to protect your rating is for dashers who grab incorrect orders from the restaurant and the customer gets another person’s order. That’s my theory. I’ve only had to do it once so far. Maybe it prompts you to do it more often if orders aren’t getting delivered correctly.

One time i had a double order. I separated them in the bins in my car to make it Impossible to confuse the orders. I dropped off the first order, and was having problems getting to the screen of the second customers address and called door dash. I finally figured out the app wanted a picture of the order Before its delivered. So i turned The bag to photograph the information and saw the customer name and at that moment realized i had made a dyslexic move and handed customer 1, the order that belonged to customer 2. So I went back to customer 1 to give them the correct order. I was less than a mile from the restaurant, but the restaurant would not give me the order twice DD called and asked them too. I felt so bad for the customer who had to cancel and start over because i made an airhead mistake. But now that i understand that, i am finding it easier to complete orders after its delivered.

[@MikeTalk]

@@Sun_Henry_Connie @ that’s why I triple or quadruple check things. Sometimes a customer will ask me if I double checked something and in my head I’m like I don’t think you understand my commitment to accuracy, I double-double checked already 😂

I am in a small area in NC between Greensboro and Raleigh. I have been trying both, pay per offer and pay per hr and I find that pay per hour helps me reach my goal for the night quicker.

Also, Papa Johns sometimes has the pizza bags for free so you don’t have to pay $11 thru DoorDash app. You can also just put “no receipt” and just take a photo of the bag.

I haven't been able to get $1 per mile all year on DD. Some orders seem like it but then I'll get a string of others that completely destroy the previous, so I average about 75 to 90 cpm. And the receipt photo is required on just about every order now. Most places don't even include a receipt so I just take a pic of the bag.

[@rodneyeccles]

The problem with NOT cherry picking to try and up your hourly rate is that you can easily get $20/hr or more at many fast food joints you are going to deliver for. Not to mention you don't put all those miles on your car and thus you dont have to deal with the maintenance costs. Trust me, the tax deduction doesn't even begin to cover the gas and maint on most vehicles. A wheel alignment will cost you up to $200 bucks but those shocks/struts will cost you north of 1200 bucks. These apps know what they are doing. They get paid even when you don't. So is it really worth the time and effort and wear and tear on your car to go for the bonuses on high acceptance rates? I dont think so.

What's the point of even being platinum if you are still going to get the low offers? Please help it make sense." The lady just apologized and said she can "refresh it and see if that makes a difference". The first order that came in after that was a high paying but then went back down to a low paying right after that. Sometimes, I feel like it's not even worth being platinum. And on top of it, I have not seen a single promo since I became platinum over a month ago, (only been dashing a month and a half) while I was seeing them all the time before I became platinum.

Having the store open a bag? None of the stores I pick up at are going to do that. It will create animosity with the employees. God forbid I ask if they have extra sauce or the like. It’s hard enough to even the get food from some places. If I start making them open bags they will surely remember me. I don’t want that. I want to be a ghost. Some places have crazy ways they seal stuff up. Dunkin’s plastic bags have to be torn open and will require a new bag. My part of this is to tell the store the name or order number. They hand over the order. I take that to address. I’m a bitter old man. Sry.

Can you tell my metro takes me out of my scheduled zone a lot? 🤣

[@LLStacheLarry]

@@SimoneFrancesReed ok thank you.

[@blindada6282]

12:00 Hope those are 5 fast driving freeway miles

[@Dazlidorne]

Do you think you were punished for not taking the Dashlink offer and that is the reason it took 30 mins to get another offer?

[@joeldriver-sp2rg]

LOL I would lose money doing that here in Oklahoma City. So many of the orders pay so bad that it's almost laughable.

[@Badboyben1422]

One thing i hate about Doordash is getting an order that's far for a good price lile 3-5 miles for +10 or more dollars and then getting a second order for the same distance or further for a much lower amount like 2-3$

[@paulbridwell2935]

Yeah getting change for your bills from the pizza place oh yeah my first pizza delivery was pizza hut got a second order right after the first one then asked them for bag and got a free pizza bag saved me from buying one for door dash for what like 30 bucks

[@maxi-me]

I wanna see you do an UberEats _take every offer_ challenge.... you'll be in Oklahoma with $57 by sundown 😂

[@stephenjohnson5589]

I’ve never been to Rasin Caine. They don’t have that restaurant here.

[@gtaxlondon]

Number of drop offa dont affect your $/mi ratio? If its 12.56 for 5 mi but its 2 drop offs I probably wont take it assuming at least one didnt tip and the non tippers are always an issue for me

[@FeelinFroggy]

Hot spots are a joke. In my areat they will send you an order offer 20 miles away. My zone has 3 cities in it and surrounded around other zones.

[@petemanning1768]

I've been in the parking lot of a hot spot and never got an order and never saw any other drivers pick up anything.

[@caytonhopson3200]

I’d like to see the warehouse bulk deliveries

[@tengineer9111]

@YourDriverMike , can you share a an image/screenshot of the "Zones" around Pittsburgh & just north of PGH, please?

[@J-vq6kv]

The fact is if you accept every offer you will inherently in the future do a lot better. The application works on algorithms and projections both on the business side and the delivery side. If your numbers look good especially over a long period of time, you will get better offers consistently. My acceptance rate is always 98% or higher and the only time I say no is if I have to drive more than 10 mi to pick up an order. I do just fine.

[@jennodine]

I HATE when they make you photo the receipt. It’s so random, I find myself waiting to see if I’m gonna need it before I leave the restaurant because it’s such a PIA to do it once it’s in the bag.

[@MyDanielgm]

Your problem is you’re so focused on getting good offers normally, that you’re stuck in the lower tier rewards. You gotta get platinum. It has made an insane difference here in Spokane

[@donnak.8422]

I've been platinum for 5 months now. They still send me low offers quite often; when I decline it takes my acceptance rate down 1 percentage; is it still the case that you can be deactivated if it falls below 80? Or is it 70, i don't remember.

[@nocturnus6]

@@donnak.8422 You can't get deactivated for a low acceptance rate, completion rate is the one that will get you deactivated if it falls below 80%.

[@Hotoffthepress2024]

Made a lot of cash on cash Deleveries in New Orleans and made delivery fees and cash. Never really had change and customer always gave me money on top of

[@kurtragsdale-bv7gh]

This week dash time accepting every offer except one 21 .5 hours I made $407 working 20 hours of those at peak busy time except on Monday tri cities tn. Last week 36 hours dash time 12 hours were in the daytime $570.

[@D.L.Krauzman]

You just fell into DD’s trap. !! 😂😂😂

[@wrnowown]

Per active hour is so crazy I’ve dashed 18 hours and had 13 active gotta report and advocate defend yourself at all times I think they use the estimated speed demon time per order instead of real time adjusted for roadblocks and real world situations

[@christophercarbonara2920]

How are you seeing the mileage distance for the orders BEFORE you accept?

[@admiralv3538]

So weird being from Pittsburgh and seeing all these familiar places

[@zishere48]

Hear me out. The best way to use these gig apps is to expect not to make any money. I look for 2 dollars a mile, including my trip back to a hotspot. When I have the most success is when I just out running errands with it on in my back pocket. Otherwise, you end up waiting in your car for an hour for something actually good.

[@meggison4674]

I don't ever wait in an area. If a Hotspot isn't hitting, then I drive to a different Hotspot and can usually hit along the way. For a usual 4-6 hour run, i have about an hour of downtime between orders, and that is ually from when I have to drive out of my zone for a delivery

[@RandyLe4zero8]

U do this on rideshare ?

[@LarryBeard-wm1rd]

A Wendy’s in my area has started weighing all the food and drinks on a scale at the counter before I get it. A little time consuming. Yes, taking photos of the receipts is irritating and time consuming. A great video.

[@datazndood]

Weighing the food is F ing Wild!!

[@ashlaunicaalpari4584]

That’s literally insulting to drivers.

[@mariamoncadabeldenvillagedash]

I got you beat Mike. Stacked order 4 stops 8 miles $3 😂

[@MikeTalk]

Messed up how that’s a real offer. I got my first quadruple stack order this week, hadn’t ever seen that before. 4 shop and delivers.
