3.3 Radio cab business model The radio cab business functions of various distinct business models. Radio cab companies are 100 percent business ventures. There is not any central monitoring system for all the radio cab companies and even the GPS tracking is managed individually by all the companies. The Radio Cabs market works both on pure B2C (Business to Consumer) model, i.e., the services are provided directly from the cab company to the customer and B2B (Business to Business) model, i.e., the cab company provides its services to the corporations which further provides it to their employees. The companies are becoming more popular and profitable by incorporating “the franchise model”. All the cab companies work on the mixed models such …show more content…
The vehicle working under such procedure is called “attached vehicle”. The cab company promises some minimum fixed number of trips to the cab drivers for the paid duration. To own the attached vehicle, the driver has to sign a contract for a certain time period with some fixed amount of investment and he is allotted one of the 500 registered cabs by the company after a completion of the duration. Rent-a-Cab Model The following are the characteristics of the relationship between driver and the company at Easy Cabs, as described by the driver in an interview. • The cab drivers have to pay a security deposit of around Rs.20,000/- to the company. • The driver should have a commercial driver’s license. • He is supposed to pay a daily rent to the company of approximately Rs.1100 per day for the cab and whatever he earns beyond that belongs to him. • He has to pay for the CNG out of his pocket and the maintenance of the vehicle is paid by the cab company itself. • The monthly income of the cab driver is approximately

Would people be willing to pay $12.50/month for commercial free radio beamed right to their car or home. Well two companies and many big investors are betting about $3 billion dollars that people are willing to do just that. In 1997, the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) granted a portion of the S-band spectrum for satellite radio and two companies purchased use of these bands and started the only two companies competing in the satellite radio business today, namely Sirius and XM. Analysts like William Kidd of CE Unterberg Towpin, predict satellite radio will generate about $10 billion a year in revenues by 2007 (McClean, 2001). However, to date neither of these companies has earned a dime. According to industry analyst though, “its not whether satellite radio will take off-rather it’s a matter of how fast.” (Helyar, 2004). Despite lofty predictions, satellite radio has some big issues to overcome before it becomes a serious threat to the $19.6 billion per year terrestrial radio industry.
Drivers are given dispatch over the phone or email so there is separation amongst all employees. For example, dispatch has more power over drivers. In particular, at 3D Transport dispatch does make more than truck drivers and this leads to a separation of who makes more. Zweig (2012, page 3) notes that for the working class such
The radio grew in popularity and was as successful as it was because it was able to reach all across the nation, helped the American people interpret the Great Depression, and was a universal place of communication and entertainment. Although the first radio-wave theorem was developed in 1864 by James Clerk Maxwell, it was not until the 1920s and 1930s that the device really gained popularity in the U.S. During the Great Depression, families, advertisers, and even politicians used the radio for purposes such as entertainment, news, and a forum to the American people.1
The City Couriers case study will be examined in regards to the company’s overall performance. The internal and external environments of City Couriers will be analysed in regards to the key performance requirements and key success factors. Issues with performance measurement, feedback, development and remuneration will be identified. Furthermore, the issues relating to validity, reliability, fairness and cost-effectiveness in the management of both performance and remuneration will be explored. This assessment aims to highlight the current situation and areas of improvement at City Couriers.
Truck driving is a difficult job which requires great responsibility of transferring the goods from one place to other far place with proper safety. Genuine CDL training is required by every aspiring truck driver to attain essential skills as a professional driver. These training programs are meant not only help the students learn about the possible ways to handle and manage their trucks in most adverse traffic and weather conditions, but also, this training helps them to learn how to prevent any major loss of the goods during the transference.
The history of automobile audio dates back to the early 1900s. George Frost did the earliest car audio experimentation in 1922. The evolution of car radios began in the Transitone Th-1, in 1927. The first FM turner band in cars was introduced in 1952. In 1965 the 8-track player was introduced in Ford vehicles. In the early 1960’s, cassettes were introduced, but didn’t become popular until 1977. The FM band became more popular in the 1980s, and the first car compact disc players were introduced in the 1980s. In the early 2000s XM satellite was introduced to the nation. Car audio has made such an impact on vehicles over the last seven decades. Car audio evolved from the simplest forms to the most complex forms. The model of car audio sound systems varies into each and every model of vehicles.
Radio-wave technology is one of the most important technologies used by man. It has forever changed the United States and the world, and will continue to do so in the future. Radio has been a communications medium, a recreational device, and many other things to us. When British physicist James Clerk Maxwell published his theory of electromagnetic waves in 1873, he probably never could have envisioned the sorts of things that would come of such a principle. His theory mainly had to do with light waves, but fifteen years later, a German physicist named Heinrich Hertz was able to electrically generate MaxwellÕs ÒraysÓ in his lab. The discovery of these amazing properties, the later invention of a working wireless radio, and the resulting technology have been instrumental to AmericaÕs move into the Information Age. The invention of radio is commonly credited to Guglielmo Marconi, who, starting in 1895, developed the first ÒwirelessÓ radio transmitter and receiver. Working at home with no support from his father, but plenty from his mother, Marconi improved upon the experiments and equipment of Hertz and others working on radio transmission. He created a better radio wave detector or cohere and connected it to an early type of antenna. With the help of his brothers and some of the neighborhood boys he was able to send wireless telegraph messages over short distances. By 1899 he had established a wireless communications link between England and France that had the ability to operate under any weather conditions. He had sent trans-Atlantic messages by late 1901, and later won the Nobel prize for physics in 1909. Radio works in a very complicated way, but hereÕs a more simple explanation than youÕll get from most books: Electromagnetic waves of different wavelengths are produced by the transmitter, and modulations within each wavelength are adjusted to carry ÒencodedÓ information. The receiver, tuned to read the frequency the transmitter is sending on, then takes the encoded information (carried within the wave modulations), and translates it back into the sensory input originally transmitted. Many of the men who pioneered radio had designs for it. Marconi saw it as the best communication system and envisioned instant world-wide communication through the air. David Sarnoff ( later the head of RCA and NBC) had a vision of Òa radio receiver in every homeÓ in 1916, although the real potential of radio wasnÕt realized until after World War I.
“Car Radio” performed by Twenty One Pilots, is the song I have chosen to break down and explain why it relates to me in my life. It was around one to two years ago late at night when I discovered the song. I was in my room using the app called “Spotify” that plays random music based off an artist or song of your choosing. I was hanging in my room playing video games and surfing the internet when the song came on. Every word I heard I could easily relate them to my life. The song was released on “Youtube” April 19, 2013, but it was released as a single on March 18, 2014. “Car Radio” was written and recorded as Twenty One Pilots’ second and third studio album.

Managers should understand an employee’s skills and abilities to make an informed decision on whether or not to hire him. Once hired a manager uses skills and abilities as a deciding factor for an employee’s job placement within the corporation. Secondly, an evaluation of an employee’s personality helps the manager in his leadership approach of that employee. Thirdly, perceptions can be the deciding factor of whether or not a candidate is hired and or promoted. An individual perceived as fitting in may be hired to negotiate business deals. Particularly, if the individual shows a favorable attitude through actions and deeds and has strong values and behaves
Moreover, they need new technology to help to reduce time of delivery, for example the pizza made in the store but can be cook in vehicles while delivery thus the customer will receive fresh pizza from oven as well as reduce delivery time. In addition, this is because the driver then to drive fast and broke the rules lead to accident. Hence, they need to improve on the diver safety and regulation, in order to make sure the company reputation is good so, that law suit case is not charge on them. If this happens it will cause a big loss.
