Interesting.

What's the model in terms of vehicle ownership and driver salary? Will you be paying the driver a set rate for a set shift driving a company vehicle, as the likes of UPS do, of will you be paying the drivers per collection with them supplying maintaining and insuring their own vehicle, like Uber and Yodel?

At the point you become profitable, how many pickups/packages will each driver do per hour, and how much pay will each driver make per hour/pickup/package?

How much of the market do you aspire to cover - will your model extend to most of the country, or just dense urban areas with high levels of demand?
