We recently had the pleasure of hosting UDM (Ultimate Delivery Man), a prominent figure in the gig-delivery space, at DeliverThat HQ. His visit was not just an exciting event for us but also an insightful experience that we are thrilled to share with our community.
UDM, known for his candid and insightful commentary on the gig economy, joined us for a special Driver Spotlight interview where he delved into the dynamics of the delivery world. Here are some highlights from his visit and our engaging conversation.
One of the standout moments of UDM’s visit was his interaction with our Driver Support team. He shared his firsthand experience of seeing a tight-knit team dedicated to being genuinely helpful. UDM remarked, “Just meeting the team, the real people behind it. The environment just seems very helpful...everything is just so helpful, but just meeting those people, it's just different, man.” This resonated with his community of drivers, who often praise DeliverThat for our supportive approach.
During the interview, UDM discussed the unique dynamics of catering deliveries compared to regular food deliveries. He emphasized how high-value orders, such as a $500 catering job, naturally take precedence over smaller ones due to the amount of work and coordination involved. “This is high priority. This is high value,” he noted, explaining that restaurants and drivers alike understand the importance of these larger orders.
UDM also touched on the evolving relationships between drivers and restaurant staff. He observed a shift towards more positive interactions, especially within the catering sector. “When I’m in catering now, it’s more like, ‘Hey, we’re happy to see you, just be patient with us.’” He highlighted how DeliverThat’s practices, like wait time pay, help reduce stress and foster patience, making the overall experience smoother and more enjoyable for everyone involved.
For our restaurant partners and catering managers, UDM’s visit provided a valuable perspective on how our operations support high-quality service. His observations underscored the importance of collaboration and mutual respect in ensuring successful deliveries. Seeing our team in action and understanding the processes we have in place reinforced the trust and reliability we strive to offer our partners.
UDM’s visit and interview offer a deep dive into the intricacies of the gig delivery world, highlighting both the challenges and the rewarding aspects of catering deliveries. We invite you to watch the full interview for more insights and stories from UDM’s experience at DeliverThat HQ.
