Retiring soon from doordash. I know alot of you hate this company and I'm sure in certain parts of the u.s its doortrash. I've been been blessed too dash in an market where you can make a decent chunk of change. But cities like mine exist . I'ma blow your mind with tricks thatll blow you mind

No flair

Tip 1. Restaurants have an ability too rate drivers similar too customers. But it's on a 1 too 3 scale. Maybe some of you old school dashers know they can also "prefer you" that means they are requesting you for catering orders and want you too be delivering there food. When I first started dashing I only really cared about that coveted customer rating. How wrong i was. One day a restaurant owner of a pizza spot that was poppin in my area liked how professional I was and always used a hot bag. He requested me as a preferred dasher and ever since then that 1 store made me thousands of dollars a month. Back when bonus pay was double digits I'd get any order before any other dasher if i was available and nearby. I then started going too all busy restaurants nearby and slowly starting too either get too know the owner or general manager. In 2 months I was prefered too almost all the popular spots in a 3 mile radius too my house. If you guys know my history of when i use too post my earnings I easily made 25 30 an hr weekly and that's cause i dashed 8 too 10 hours a day. During lunch and dinner time I would reach 40 too 50. Damn my fingers are tired... aha I have so much I wanna share but it's a bitch typing. You here on reddit are gonna be first too hear my tips. So hurry and use em before my YouTube video comes out.

“To” is a preposition, “too” is an adverb.

“To” shows direction or indicates a relationship or purpose and “too” is used like “as well” or to show something is excessive.

For example: I really appreciate you putting together some tips to help us improve our dashing experience, but your misuse of the word “too” is way too distracting.

No judgment here, I’m a firm believer that it’s never too late to learn.

And seriously, thank you for the tips. I also didn’t know that merchants can rate drivers. Good to know!

I honestly hadn't thought about my partnered restaurants preferring me. I get orders at lightspeed for partners in my town and I've been really curious why, I thought maybe it was because I'm almost at 1000? I hear other dashers complain all the time how slow it is during busy times and I'll have a 3 stack on my phone..

I just stay as friendly as I can.

So do you think the businesses can still choose preferred partners or was that just in the past? Maybe ask some of those managers before you quit

I'm fairly certain that it hasn't changed. If you go to the merchant help site, you can browse through the documentation for their tablets.

Most restaurants don’t give two shits who picks up from them. While it is possible for a restaurant to mark a driver as preferred, its highly unlikely that any store outside of a small mom and pop would take the time to do so. Chains like BJs, Cheesecake Factory, BWW and many others aren’t playing the preferred driver game.

I would never want too be preferred at cheesecake bjs or bbq. You just named dropped 3 restaurants too stay away from lol

Yeah well those are restaurants to blacklist anyways. I know Chipotle preferred me because I got an email about it a few months ago. Same deal with the busiest cookie dough place in town, I'll have to peep the tablet at the acai bowl place too. Those 3 places keep me busy and they're always ready.

That could be part of it.

Another part could be that the system seems to prefer sending orders to a driver who has already delivered to the customer before. Repeat customers essentially.

I've often been working an order during slow times, and actually gotten a stack seemingly just because it seemed to be a repeat customer. Or, I get an order out of the blue for a repeat customer, and get to the restaurant just to see other drivers idling (but who knows maybe they are grubhub, uber, etc).
