Washiya ikolishi futhi wazinikela ekwakheni isiqalo ngenkathi ethola izinzuzo zokungasebenzi. Ngemva kweminyaka, wazenza omunye wabasunguli be-Scour, nakuba lokhu kungelona iqiniso.
uphawu - Uber
U-Skur wakhula. Ngokushesha, abantu abangafika kwabayishumi nantathu basebenza efulethini labasunguli benkampani uMichael Todd noDan Rodriguez. Inkampani yakhula ngokuduma. Izigidi zabantu zaqala ukuyisebenzisa, kodwa kwakukhona izinkinga ngokuthola izimali, kanye ... nokuncintisana, i.e. i-Napster edumile, eyathuthukisa inqubo yokwabelana ngamafayela futhi ayizange ilayishe amaseva kakhulu. Ekugcineni, njengoba kushiwo, umfelandawonye wamalebula wamangalela u-Scour ngemali ecishe ibe yizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingu-250! Inkampani ayikwazanga ukubhekana nalo msebenzi. Watshona.
Ngemva kokuwa Skura, Travis yasungulwa Isevisi ye-Red Swooshesebenza ngokufanayo futhi esetshenziselwa ukwabelana ngamafayela. Uhlelo lweqhawe lethu bekuwukuba izinhlangano ezingamashumi amathathu nantathu zamangalela u-Skur ukuthi ajoyine iqembu... amaklayenti ephrojekthi yakhe entsha. Ngenxa yalokho, izinkampani ezamangalela umqashi kaKalanick wokuqala zaqala ukumkhokhela imali kulokhu. Eminyakeni embalwa kamuva, ngo-2007, wathengisa le nkonzo ngamaRandi ayizigidi ezingu-23 ku-Akamai. Bekuyingxenye yemali eyatholwa kulokhu kuthengiselana ayabela isikhungo ngo-2009, kanye nozakwabo uGarrett Camp.

Ezinye izinto zokuhamba eSilicon Valley
Lapho ihlola isevisi, u-Kalanick no-Camp bashayela izimoto eziqashisayo ngokwabo ukuze babone ukuthi uhlelo lokusebenza lusebenza kanjani ngempela. Abagibeli bokuqala babengabazali bakaKalanick. Le nkampani yayisegumbini elilodwa lendlu eqashiwe. Abanikazi bebengakhokhisani, bahlukaniselana amasheya kuphela. Lapho benza imali yabo yokuqala enkulu, bathuthela esakhiweni esiphakeme saseWestwood futhi isibalo sabasebenzi sanda saba yishumi nantathu.

Abaningi sebeqalile ukusebenzisa uhlelo. Kwakunezimoto eziningi ezitholakalayo: izimoto ezivamile nama-limousine amakhulu. Kusukela ekuqaleni, kwakucatshangwa ukuthi iklayenti ayizange ikhokhele umshayeli ngokuqondile. Inani elifunekayo lidonswa ngokuzenzakalelayo ekhadini lesikweletu lomsebenzisi wesevisi. Umshayeli, ohlolwe ngaphambilini yi-Uber futhi wahlolelwa amarekhodi obugebengu, uthola u-80% wawo. I-Uber ithatha okusele.
Ekuqaleni, isevisi yayingathembekile ngaso sonke isikhathi. Isibonelo, uhlelo lokusebenza lukwazile ukuthumela zonke izimoto ezitholakalayo ukusuka e-San Francisco kuya endaweni eyodwa.

Khona manjalo kumenyezelwe izinhlelo zokwandisa izicelo zabashayeli abangenazo izincwadi zokushayela amatekisi. Izimoto ezincane nama-tolls aphansi kwenze inkampani yakwazi ukuheha amakhasimende adla izambane likapondo, yandisa amakhasimende aphindayo futhi yandisa kakhulu ithonya layo kulesi sigaba semakethe.
NgoJulayi 2012, inkampani yaphumela obala eLondon Stock Exchange nethimba labashayeli “bezimoto ezimnyama” abangaba amashumi ayisishiyagalolunye, iningi labo okungamaMercedes, BMW kanye neJaguar.

Ekuqaleni kuka-2015, uKalanick umemezela ukuthi ngenxa yesikhulumi sakhe, kuphela eSan Francisco kukhona ithuba lokuthola abantu abangu-7, eNew York 14 ayizinkulungwane, eLondon 10 ayizinkulungwane. futhi eParis, abangu-4 3.

Ukunwetshwa kwe-Kalanica ne-Uber kuqubule imibhikisho enodlame kubashayeli bamatekisi. Emazweni amaningi, i-Uber ibonwa njengokuncintisana okungafanele ezinkampanini zamatekisi zendabuko, ibhidliza imakethe ngokwehlisa intengo yezinsizakalo. Isolwa nangokungalawulwa yimithethonqubo. Nokuthi izinsiza ezinjalo aziphephile kubagibeli abachayeka ekushayeleni nabashayeli abangahleliwe. EJalimane naseSpain, le nkonzo yavalwa ngaphansi kwengcindezi yezinkampani zamatekisi. UBrussels wenze isinqumo esifanayo. Namuhla lokhu kusebenza emazweni amaningi. Impi ka-Uber emelene nezinkampani zamatekisi kanye nezinkampani ithatha izindlela ezinodlame ezingxenyeni eziningi zomhlaba. Izibhelu ezinodlame zingabonakala ezindabeni kusukela eFrance kuya eMexico. E-China, ezinye izinkampani zamatekisi zikahulumeni, okuholele ekutheni amaphoyisa abonakale emahhovisi akwa-Uber eGuangzhou, Chengdu naseHong Kong.

Imibhikisho eParis: Abashayeli bamatekisi baseFrance bacekele phansi imoto yakwa-Uber
Phakathi kwabakade bengabangane, isithixo sethu asinalo nhlobo idumela elihle. Abezindaba baphakamisa ngokungaziwa ukuthi uphethwe i-ego eyeqile futhi kungaba yinto engathandeki kakhulu ekuxhumaneni naye. Okunye okuthokozisayo yizinkumbulo zabantu abambalwa abasebenza naye eRed Swoosh. Kwenye yezincwadi, kwakunombiko wokuthi phakathi nohambo lokuhlanganiswa kwezisebenzi eTulum, eMexico, uKalanick waba nengxabano nomshayeli wetekisi okuthiwa wayefuna ukuba lonke iqembu likhokhe ngokweqile ngemali yokugibela emba eqolo. Ngenxa yalokho, uTravis weqa etekisini eyayihamba. “Umfana ube nesikhathi esinzima nabashayeli bamatekisi,” kukhumbula uTom Jacobs, unjiniyela wakwaRed Swoosh…
Kodwa-ke, akekho ophikayo ukuthi wayenguye futhi uhlala engumthengisi ovelele. Umngani wakhe wakudala uthi uzodayisa noma yini, ngisho nezimoto ezisetshenzisiwe, ngoba lokho kuwubuntu bukaTravis.
I-Uber isho inani
Ngaphandle kwemibono ehlukene yemibuthano yezokuthutha, abatshalizimali bayahlanya nge-Uber. Phakathi neminyaka eyisithupha, bamsekela ngemali engaphezu kwezigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezine zamaRandi. Inkampani eseCalifornia okwamanje inenani elingaphezu kwezigidigidi ezingama-4-40 zamaRandi, okuyenza ibe ngeyesibili ngobukhulu emhlabeni (ingemuva kuphela komenzi wama-smartphone waseShayina u-Xiaomi). U-Kalanick nozakwabo u-Garrett Camp benza uhlu lwe-Forbes lwezigidigidi ngonyaka odlule. Impahla yabo bobabili yabe ilinganiselwa ku-$50 billion.
Njengendoda enwebekayo, u-Kalanick ubhekana nezinselelo ezinkulu. Njengamanje, lena yimizamo eqhubekayo yokunqoba izimakethe zaseShayina naseNdiya. Kunzima ukufezeka izinhlelo eziningi zokuvelela, njengoba kunabantu abangaphezu kwezigidigidi ezingu-2,5 abahlala kula mazwe amabili ndawonye.
I-Travis ifuna ukudlulela ngale kwemodeli ye-Uber yamanje, ekhulula ezokuthutha zabagibeli emiyalweni yezinkampani zokuxhumana, iye ekwabelaneni ngezimoto bese kuba yimikhumbi. izimoto zedolobha ezizimele.

Iphuzu futhi ukuthi lo msebenzi unomthelela, isibonelo, ekunciphiseni isibalo sabashayeli abaphuzile. Emadolobheni lapho i-Uber isinesikhathi eside ikhona, inani lezingozi ezibangelwa yizo lehlile kakhulu. Abazohambela amaphathi maningi amathuba okuthi basebenzise i-Uber kunezimoto zabo. Izimoto ezimbalwa, isiminyaminya esincane, izindawo zokupaka ezimatasa ezimbalwa - konke lokhu kwenza idolobha libe nobungane ezakhamuzini. Siphinde sinikeze iqoqo ngolwazi mayelana nezigigaba ezindaweni idolobha elingakwazi ukuzilawula kangcono, njengezokuthutha umphakathi.”
Naphezu kobukhulu bamanje benkampani, uTravis ukholelwa ukuthi "isiko lokuqalisa lika-Uber lisasekhona kuze kube yilolu suku, ngemva kweminyaka emihlanu yasungulwa." Usesimeni sakhe. Ugcwele imibono, futhi kubonakala sengathi useqalile ukumangaza umhlaba.
