UberChopper Sticks the Landing

Take Off with UberCHOPPER

Sometimes a marketing effort is so timely and relevant I’m giddy with excitement and I want to scream from the mountain tops…BRILLIANT! That happened when I received an email from Uber NYC promoting their helicopter service to the Hamptons.

As any New Yorker knows, for the well-to-do, the summer and weekends in the Hamptons go hand in hand. The launch of this chopper…

Uber Awesomeness

Uber delivers Christmas Trees Uber started as an on-demand black car service. The brand is now more ‘awesomeness transporter’ than just people transporter. When it rained, the Uber mobile app SO cleverly asked you if you wanted to pay a surcharge for your car ride because, Duh, it’s raining, and everyone in Manhattan wants a ride….and is also, (spoiler alert), willing to pay.

NYC strikes Uber deal: No cap on company growth during study

New York City and Uber have struck a deal on the eve of a City Council vote that could have placed a cap on the number of cars the ride-hailing company can have on the streets of the nation's largest city. Mayor Bill de Blasio's administration announced late Wednesday that Uber agreed to a four-month study on the impact of the cars on traffic and the environment. Under the deal, the city will not cap Uber's growth during those four months. The agreement contrasts sharply with the legislation that the council was set to vote on Thursday, which called for a 1 percent cap on the San Francisco-based company's growth in New York City during a yearlong study. Uber has steadfastly opposed any cap, and the company and City Hall had traded increasingly nasty barbs over the past week.

Uber will share information for the study above and beyond what has previously been provided, with safeguards to protect privacy.

But the hostilities were set aside to announce the surprise arrangement, which also included a commitment to turn over far more data to the city on the location and duration of Uber's rides. The company also agreed to work toward making more of its vehicles handicap-accessible and contributing to the region's mass-transit network. City officials said the deal was reminiscent of what the de Blasio administration offered Uber early in the negotiating process. They said a cap could still be imposed if Uber reneges on the agreement. In pushing for a cap, the de Blasio administration cited concern about increased congestion on Manhattan's clogged streets.
