Hi Limo brothers and sisters,
I intended to start a website for limousine services after browsing some of the limousine services websites.
Some of the terms used like "Arrival", "Departure", "Hourly" are easy to understand.
What are the other terms that are often used and what to they mean?
This one.....
not many forummers will like to disclose in a forum page.
Personally, I do not have a internet website (webpage). Bro Sam.seah has 1. You may want to private msg him for more indications.
Thru the years....
there are many (NEW) limousine websites... and getting to the top page (of any search engines) is the priority.
but getting there..... $$$ need to be spend as an investment that may or may not be able to recoup.
Hence, a proper market survey is needed and the vehicles backing you. ie, as reserve to your business vehicle(s).
Since you have been doing online businesses, the IT prospective had already cleared. If you are really serious about it....
we can (including those interested, can meet up for....
** As I did mentioned in an earlier post.... I sincerely doubt there is any forummer(s) coming forward and share with you their trade secret in making their websites successful.
Arrival ( Meet & Greet services ).
Proper Limousine procedure -
Park your business vehicle in the CP and proceed into the arrival hall with your "White Sign"....
Meet & Greet passengers - normal waiting time is 1 hour from the time the plane lands. If passenger NO SHOW - check the Belt of that particular flight if there are any luggages left on it or on the floor.... (If there are.... you have to continue to wait). Some pax loves to Shop Shop, See See Look Look.... bo pien...
Once you received the guest(s), bring them to the Private Pickup Point before you retrieve your vehicle and proceed to the pickup point (preferred not to bring the pax to the CP).
If Guest no show....(If the job belongs to somebody else), before you left the CP, print a receipt at the exit point and keep it for further reference by the Original source (which may be from the Hotel).
Normally, no show by pax, you can do a claim it but if it is an online assignement, unless they paid you in advance by Pay-Pal, it is very difficult to chase for the job money.

** Forummers who read my contributions... my Ang-Mo no good... so, if there is any grammar errors, pls jump thru.... If my Ang Mo good.... no need to drive business vehicle liao.

U wanna try go google type in limousine or Maxicab? You want to have a feel of your competition first??
Don’t waste money, like JDIL mention, I have a website, can meet for coffee then brainstorm how we can make it better lah…u no need come out with $$$ mah…
If you can make our limousine like CDG hotline… I salute you lah… I have a DREAM… That is to make our telephone so prominent that when people want limousine, they call our number. Want taxi call CDG… Still got very long way to go..
U see, our Singaporeans don’t have a limousine culture.. They rather take taxis. And just imagine, if a TD take a longer route, they kpkb Liao. U think they pay u $60-70 for one limo transfer??
Even for Maxicab, u tell them $50, they want to consider, some more stay CCK and Jurong West, I feel like telling them… I also want to consider for that 50pts, I lugi, pax earn leh…
You driving limousine now??
No, not yet. Currently driving an Epica but helping my BIW to send expat from point to point/airport.
Singaporean?
CMI. Might as well sweep the floor.

It is always good to interact among ourselves and of course not to take each other for granted.

I am still a 6 weeks old newbie, far far away from your standard.
At this stage, it's more likely I will be wasting your precious time.
Yes, I do have your email and we can "talk" over it.

u mean as in no breakdown in communication like with the OTHER driver??
Originally posted by komade:u mean as in no breakdown in communication like with the OTHER driver??
Yes....indeed.
Using communication breakdown in Singapore is such a LAME EXCUSE.
Only morons will think of using it as an excuse. Study too much ? screw loose ?
I got 2 mobiles phones, 1 walky talkie (with phone line)... 3 also cannot get thru ?
