How to make my Reading Taxi rock

[TerryL]

I'm a Reading taxi driver and I'm trying to think of new ways in which I could be of use during the festival weekend. What do you think would be useful to you - I was thinking beer runs, obviously taxi to the reading festival area, free complimentary toilet roll/sweets per taxi run!? Would any of this woo you to get into my cabs?

I don't think it matters, there's already a big demand for taxis so I don't think people are gonna turn down cabs that are right there and wait for one that has sweets.

Something on the outside might catch the eye, but I don't know if you're allowed to use the official logos?

I thibk the beer run might be a good idea as long as it's advertised.

I'm sure people would pay the cost of a cab ride to help ferry their beers back from Tesco.

1. stop way over charging for the smallest of journey

2 stop being a little bitch about a very small amount of mud.

I don't really see how a beer run could work. You would have to transport a huge amount for it to be cost effective. And (no offence) I don't think I'd trust someone with my money in advance to get my beer.

Also you would have the legal problem, that it might be seen as selling on alcohol without a license/tax.

Only extra way I could see for you to make money would be trying to advertise to offer lifts to/from the festival in advance, so people don't have to walk/carry there stuff or have to queue for parking. But correct me if I'm wrong, I think you can only accept lifts from the designated cab rank at the festival? So can't really arrange to pick anyone up.

Other than that the only other thing I can advice is trying to pick up lifts from the tesco car parks during the morning/afternoon. I would happily pay for a taxi from there to help get my beer/food back to the campsite.

Sorry I'm not much help
