Due to the active settlement of cities and the desolation of rural areas, the issue of transporting people in public transport becomes relevant. This business niche is attracting more and more attention, and many are beginning to think about how to put their bus on the route.
Instructions
Step 1
First, select a few routes that you like and meet your requirements. There can be several selection criteria: a large flow of passengers throughout the day, a good, convenient road, the final points of the route near your home, and many others.
Step 2
Find out who the owners of these routes are. Go to them and find out if they will let you put the bus on the route. If the answer is yes, then the next question is to find out about the cost of such a service. Typically, such a fee is several tens of thousands, and in an illegal way, per "paw".
Step 3
Go to the drivers on this route and try to find out from them how things are with passengers, with earnings, with the maintenance and repair of vehicles. You can pretend to be a driver looking for a job, then they will be more willing to tell you the details. It is important to know what part of the profit goes into their pocket: a percentage of the proceeds or a fixed amount.
Step 4
Analyze this income, or vice versa will drive you into debt. If, nevertheless, your answer is yes, then the next step is to decide whether you will work as a driver yourself or it will be an employee. Also, take care of the vacancy of a conductor, the most win-win option would be if your wife or a good friend will take this position.
Step 5
Get ready for the fact that you will have to correct the license, pay taxes, and carry out expensive repairs. If you want to purchase a route, it is better to immediately abandon this idea. This is the subject of wars, intrigues, showdowns, huge bribes and tenders. This requires not one bus, but several, and preferably a dozen vehicles. It takes time for people to get used to the new route and willingly use it.
