Kenyans give lifts by stopping at the stage and buying passengers from makangas/mungiki. Risk is;

1. Security - You lift or are lifted by thugs; and

2. Expectations - You lift @mugundaman and he expects you to take him to middle of nowhere with no roads and lighting.

To address these issues the developers should take a community approach to increase trust. Also have an accepted code for lifting.

For instance if Wazua started a lifting community, I won't have a problem lifting or being lifted by a wazuan.


Good observations but then that's what you get when you hitch a ride in that Noah, Probox or Sienta from Eldoret to Nairobi. Not vetted, not verified, no background checks, nothing.

We know better; before we can allow anyone to book or offer a lift they must all have been checked and verified in advance.

Drivers are required to set their dropoff and pickup points in advance. This way the passenger expectations are met to avoid those ackward detours.



Boni,

Kindly provide your contacts/email.

Thanks


I'm on Skype @githinjibn or email boni at sematime dot com



Hey Boniface Githinji,

This is a well thought of idea considering it is a product that is solving a problem, a Kenyan problem. Lifts will be sought this coming festive season and it's prudent you position yourself.

Maybe share with Wazuans here how you began and how the numbers are so that we look at adoption rather than name calling which doesn't interest some of us here. Maybe offer us 'free lifts' as an advrtising strategy, you just don't know who is reading this.

Thank you. We are definitely going to max on this festive season. Already doing good as it is. Actually, have done better that Little or Uber on their 1st month after launch where it matters.

As of free lifts, good suggestion. We have some cool new things cooking up so when time is ready Wazuans will be among the first to know.

"you just don't know who is reading this." - since I shared my contacts, I have been getting lots of interest with @NipeLift app.

If you are reading this and would want to invest or partner with us, holler at me on @githinjibn on Skype or boni at sematime dot com. There are opportunities in 'insurance, advertising, car services & venture capital'

One more thing...I wish to apologize irrevocably to members of this forum who may have taken offense in the way I handled @mawinder's comment.

The manner in which the question was asked was rather offensive and unexpected in a mature community as Wazua. I believe we can always agree to disagree but without the disgrace and demeanor of hooligans.

As you were ladies and gentlemen.

@uncleboni - Your language is extremely vulgar and makes you look immature and totally unhinged! Your response to issues raised is absolutely pedestrian! Comparing your ill advised slay queen ad to the Wright brothers invention is idiotic at best. There is absolutely nothing to compare there. There is absolutely nothing smart about the ad. There is absolutely nothing smart about your responses. And all these responses are being associated with your product.

Would I trust your product with the kind of responses you are giving? No!! Would I put say a million plus in your venture as an investor? Absolutely not!! The management of a company you want to investment is crucial regardless of the product.

Kindly take a management and/or advertising course even if it is online or just read as much as you can on this topics. You can also try to get a good mentor or spend time with successful entrepreneurs.
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

And you need to be smart @uncleboni. You can engage in a back and forth here with any wazuan, BOTH of you using vulgar language but you are forgetting the other fellow has not put his business, institution etc. on the line. He/She is just a screen name. That's it. On your side, everything you are saying is being associated with your company.

Thanks..This clearly shows the values of NipeLift.From slayqueens, to dicks, to using a registered trademark "Uber".However, part of the blame on the founder is inherent..

I have said as much on these streets as I possibly should. I even gave an apology, damn it. But if y'all wish to continue with mudslinging I am gonna let you all have a fieldday. Afterall, no publicity is bad publicity. Ama vipi?
