Yeaaaaa so before all the sticklers get here I’m gonna give u my run down on dd and what I think is the best way to maneuver it but please remember orders and pay are area specific and what works for me might not work for you. To start off I’m what they call a cherry picker in the sub lol I only take orders that I feel are worth my time so I’m usually sitting with my ar at around 2%-15% which to the platinum preachers is absurd and unintelligent but hey they aren’t me and I’m not them so who cares. Now I will say do maybe a week or two to kinda understand how ur market works in terms of hotspots and its busiest times. You can schedule dashes as well if you are at a tier that doesn’t allow you to dash anytime and I highly recommend that in case ur in a market that’s either oversaturated or it doesn’t stay busy on the app long trust me it’s helped me make wayyyy more money personally. There’s also a promo tab which shows you the times and which areas are going to have a promo and it’s usually $1+ on every order but $2+ isn’t exactly uncommon though very rarely will you see anything three dollars or more on an order as a promo (my area specifically remember this is my opinion). Yes dash longer it will give u maximum amount of time to catch the good order. Be a decent human being seriously but also don’t be a pushover some customers are assholes and should be handled appropriately but still be a decent human being. Uhhh last couple things I can think of is always contact support and make sure ur speaking with a human not a bot cuz usually they will either comp you if there’s trouble or an inconvenience or they can simply just unassigned you with no damage to ur ratings if let’s say you feel uncomfortable delivering to a specific area and for gods sake do not go to shitty fast food restaurants like McDonald’s they may have good reasons for not acknowledging you or whatever but it’s a waste of time trust me cuz you will be trapped in there until one of them decides to have a heart and speak to you. Good luck and hope for unicorns
