For the many urban commuters Lyft is friendly commuter service at your fingertips. In todays urban world, being connected within your community starts by engaging. As a Vancouverite visiting San Fransisco, my personal experience of Lyft quite literally awesome!! Shifting the necessary change of perceived values around commuting and sharing that experience was an amazing way to explore the San Fransisco efficiently. The customer service was impeccable, the user experience of the app was easy to navigate but better yet, as an interior designer who appreciates the details, the app not just works but looks good. On top of that the ability for drivers to be accountable for the experience they are providing, makes Lyft to top the list of setting the bar high for all new competitor apps coming to the market. I was so moved by the experience of using the app mostly because I see the potential of technology helping make the necessary change we need in our world. Information sharing highly edited to the convenience of its user base. All I could keep thinking about is why the hell is Lyft not in Vancouver. I think about my father who at the early age of 62 is stripped of his dreams to retire and enjoy his life with travelling the roads with his wife, due to recent diagnosis of my mother now living with early onset Alzheimers. My father now struggles to be a full time caregiver but is faced to find financial solutions to support his family. Lyft would be a perfect solution for my father to live his love of driving, find purpose by providing a public service. The ability of my father to provide an experience to commuters with dignity of loving the city he knows best. Lyft provides a new platform for drivers to have an income all at the convenience of a flexible schedule. The ability for my father to work when he can in between being a caregiver or hosting homestay students. This app would be a great way for my father to meet a younger demographic and have a fun approach to his love of driving.
Not sure where Lyft stands on the Vancouver front but I would be happy to endorse and find creative ways for uber to enter the Vancouver market. Were a tough city to crack into but I do believe when companies can prove to be successful in Vancouver, they can be successful anywhere.
