Customer Reviews
A Excellent Resource for Rideshare Info
TheRideShareGuy is an invaluable resource for Rideshare drivers. Whether your just getting started or been driving for a while you do not want to pass up this treasure trove of valuable information that will help you to succeed as a driver. Congratulations Harry!
Pleasantly Surprised
I found this podcast through the Lyft Facebook group for drivers and I was definitely surprised at the quality of information. There were definitely a lot of great tips in the first podcast that helped me as a new driver and I’m so glad they broke down the insurance part of Lyft and Uber. I am an idiot when it comes to that stuff.. Keep it up!
My First Podcast
I’ve never listened to a podcast before so I wasn’t really sure what to expect. Harry did a great job though I thought and I can’t wait for future shows.
PS - I would like to know more about taxes bc I’m kinda clueless about that stuff.
