Because full-time is equivalent to formal work, there is no psychological bottleneck problem. As the unit price becomes lower and lower, the epidemic is repeated in the monthly cycle, and the psychological bottleneck of part-time orders is becoming increasingly apparent.

This article only focuses on part-time discussions. Because full-time is equivalent to formal work, there is no psychological bottleneck problem.

As the unit price becomes lower and lower, the epidemic is repeated in the monthly cycle (specifically referring to Xi'an, other cities are not familiar with the situation), and the psychological bottleneck of part-time orders is becoming more and more apparent.

1. The unit price is getting lower and lower

I started part-time orders at the end of February 2022. At that time, the normal average price was still between 5.6 yuan and 6.3 yuan. Now (October 2022), the normal average price has dropped to 4.5 yuan to 5.2 yuan.

The so-called normal unit price refers to the price without any conditional bonus (including activity subsidies, bad weather, and customer rewards).

2. The order quantity is getting smaller and smaller

Of course, this order quantity is only for my own feelings. I have never done big data calculations (of course, I don’t know how to do it either), so I can’t say that the overall order volume is less (but several friends who work hard also said that the order volume is less).

may be due to competition among platforms or the negative impact of the epidemic, which has caused a decrease in order volume. But what I want to talk about is not only the problem of this general environment.

What I want to say is that Dada has issued an exclusive order, and one of the associated indicator parameters is the recommendation index.

What I want to talk about is this recommendation index.

is a thing that directly affects the order orders of the system. In other words, if the individual’s recommendation index is low, it is never possible to get a good system order order in normal periods and under normal order volumes.

What is a good system order?

firstly, the unit price is moderate and not too high, but it will never be the lowest price.

is the next close distance.

Last and most important one, easy to give away. What is easy to give? It means that the delivery location is close to the entrance of the community, or it can be placed directly on the takeaway rack at the entrance of the community, and customers can pick it up.

It is true that such good orders should be first recommended to full-time deliverymen, after all, they are the backbone of the platform. But, it’s not enough to leave a slight amount of soup for us to work part-time jobs, right?

is a part-time job, so there must be less online time and the total number of orders completed will not be too much. After all, there is still formal work to be done. Therefore, the recommendation index is already low.

Then, under the premise that the recommendation index is already low and there are no good orders, the system also needs to issue an exclusive order to curb part-time players.

First talk about what this exclusive order is.

First, pick up and deliver orders within three kilometers.

Secondly, the system will add money (not much, it is not worth it at all).

looks pretty good on the surface, but in fact, it is a nightmare for part-time players like me!

Because I can't get a good recommendation order, and the exclusive orders that can be sent to me are all things that full-time players with high scores don't want.

or it is because there are a lot of goods and the things are scattered, which is neither easy to load the car nor easy to carry it.

or it takes two or three kilometers to enter the community, and five or six kilometers to travel. Is the amount of dimes added still meaningful?

Due to the epidemic and some companions with relatively low qualities, the current situation is that takeaway electric vehicles are not allowed to enter the community. People can enter, but electric vehicles cannot enter, they can only walk.

The current communities are not small. If they are villa areas, it would be equivalent to off-road training. Can you accept exclusive orders like

? If

is not answered, points will be deducted!

completes one order exclusive, add three points. If you refuse to give exclusive access to one order, you will be deducted six points.

How well is this abacus? I forced the orders that no one wants to give to the deliveryman, and I also called them exclusive and added a few cents. It felt like the platform was bleeding.

This is true, and for part-time players like me, it creates a psychological bottleneck.

itself, the income from my job is not very low. Part-time job orders are to improve the quality of life and to prepare for the future.

So in this case where the price is low and the quantity is small, I will wonder, is it worth running an order?

Before June, there were orders taken every day when you drove out. Although it was not a good order, at least the price was acceptable.

0 Before June, work for three hours a day and earn at least 50 yuan.

0: After August, it is already lucky to earn 40 yuan in three hours, and the average price is less than 30 yuan. This is the premise that I have already familiarized myself with both shops and communities. If I am a novice, I will only earn 20 yuan. Maybe I may also be deducted due to timeout.

and this damn epidemic!

Because of the epidemic, I was afraid of being blocked in the community during delivery, and being a close contact or a second close contact, so I didn’t dare to go out. After all, I couldn’t make more money every day, which affected my job.

Therefore, the less you dare to run, the lower the recommendation score, the less good the order (even if there is no order to be taken), the less you are in the mood to run the order. Such a vicious cycle will lead to the more serious psychological rejection.

Moreover, due to the economic gap brought about by the epidemic, it has caused caution to consume, so a decrease in order volume is inevitable.

So, friends who are working part-time and preparing for part-time jobs, do you have any good suggestions? See
