Making sense of your transportation options

When it comes to getting where you need to go, you have many transportation options. Sometimes it’s hard – even confusing – to cut through the hype and find the best fit for you or your company. Here are some helpful tips from over 20 years working with more than 4,000 clients:

#1. It’s your choice: Some occasions call for taxis – like a quick trip uptown. Others, you may prefer a car and driver or limo service – like a ride to the airport, or making a statement when you attend an extravagant gala. Others, you may want the ease and simplicity of driving yourself.

Then there are occasions that call for something unique – a convenient, cost-effective and low-profile way to stay productive, focused and safe on outings of three hours or more, such as:

  • A C-level executive with a long commute and offsite meetings
  • Dinner with your biggest customer
  • Three days of sales meetings in an unfamiliar city
  • A convention with keynotes from prominent VIPs
  • A trade show involving your marketing team and key customers
  • Taking your loved one to a morning medical appointment and lunch

When you want to make the time you spend in your car more productive and enjoyable, call WeDriveU at 1-800-773-7483 or browse this website and learn about the advantages of private chauffeurs.

#2. It’s your car: There’s nothing like having a chauffeur drive you in the comfort of your own vehicle, your company car, or your rental vehicle. For just $36.80 per hour, you’ll enjoy an insured, certified and trained professional chauffeur driving you in YOUR car for a few hours, a few days or more.

#3. It’s our ONLY focus: Our exclusive focus is on hiring and managing talented chauffeurs, not maintaining a fleet of vehicles. And because we focus on quality, not volume, we don’t turn you over to “dispatch” when you call. We go above and beyond, providing a much higher and more dedicated level of client service, understanding your unique needs and building a long term relationship with our individual and business clients. Our sole focus is providing outstanding chauffeurs who get you to your destination safely and comfortably. It’s that simple.

#4. It’s good for your image: Bling is so ’80s. In this economy, constituents and investors express confidence in executives that choose unpretentious modes of transportation.

#5. It’s your business: In this tough economy, why advertise who you’re with and where you go? Executives and government dignitaries are increasingly going about their business in a low profile way – using their own vehicle – so they don’t draw unwanted attention.

#6. It’s one simple, flat rate: Unlike other companies, we don’t have to cover high operating costs with hidden fees. We believe in timely and accurate communications, so you won’t find complicated permutations, surprises, or “plus, plus, plus” add-ons to your invoice. Whether you book 100 chauffeurs for an event or use a full-time chauffeur, our quotes are clear and easy to understand.

#7. It’s good business: When it comes to full-time and part-time chauffeurs, we deliver up to 50% savings by allowing you to pay for a chauffeur only when they need one (we shoulder the hiring, management, payroll and workmen’s compensation burden). And when you or your employees travel, using a chauffeur in your rental car can save your company an average of 30 - 40% over the alternatives.

#8. It minimizes risk: WeDriveU offers a comprehensive insurance package to address your full spectrum of risk management needs. And when your executives need a little extra attention, ask about our chauffeurs with law enforcement experience.

#9. Safety is our #1 priority: There’s a lot of misleading information out there, so it’s important to understand the facts when you’re considering a chauffeur supplier. WeDriveU thoroughly screens our chauffeur candidates using background checks and drug testing. Our chauffeur training features a training program that has been widely adopted by top transportation providers and endorsed by industry publications. Beyond classroom training, we perform field testing, regularly monitor driving records and use random drug testing services. Our commitment to your safety is unwavering.

#10. It’s great to be eco-friendly: Has your company set goals to reduce carbon emissions? Are you using hybrid vehicles? Encouraging ridesharing? Whatever vehicle you choose, we’ll drive.

#11. It’s great for the young at heart: Do you or someone you love need to reduce or stop driving? We offer compassionate and safe transportation to medical appointments, quality time with family and friends and volunteer activities. Our chauffeurs serve as a personal concierge, assisting with grocery shopping and loading bags.

#12. It’s a great choice: There will always be a need to drive yourself to run errands, hail a cab to dinner or arrange a black car for a high profile executive. We encourage you to be well informed about all your options. When you’re looking for something a little more low-key, low-stress, low-cost and low-risk, we would be honored to serve you.
