Go People is changing the delivery industry by disrupting legacy “delivery and courier industry rules”, simplifying the point-to-point delivery process for both consumers and businesses, fulfilling the gap in service demand, raising service standards, and facilitating transparent and competitive pricing. Customers (Senders) book their deliveries and pay via the Web based or smartphone app. A Runner bids for a job via the smartphone app and the Go People system selects the most suitable Runner. The selected Runner then collects the consignment from the pick-up location and delivers it to the recipient. Go People, its Senders, Runners and the Senders’ customer (the recipient) benefit from GPS tracking and instant communication from pick up to receipt. Delivery verification and signed confirmation is assured. The Runner then receives 85% of the winning bid price. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
