A Peek At Postmates " The Uber For The Courier Industry
Postmates, the so-called Uber for the courier industry, debuted at TechCrunch Disrupt in San Francisco this September. The service aims to transform this niche industry by offering an on-demand delivery service that connects local couriers and bike messengers to anyone who needs a package sent (anything from a toaster to a stuffed elephant) within the confines of their city. Postmates is speedy, and it's cheap. (Check out our initial coverage of the startup here.)I sat down with Postmates Co-founders Bastian Lehmann and Sean Plaice to ask them a few questions about Postmates, how it works for messengers and end users, and whether or not they're disgruntled former FedEx employees. Check out the demo and let us know what you think.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/GPEOeCyKnoM/
