3.5 million Americans are permanent wheelchair users, and only about 3 percent of them own their own accessible transportation. Birmingham, Alabama-based startup, MoovMo, is disrupting the marketing and launching the first ride sharing service specifically designed for people requiring wheelchair accessible vehicles. The Birmingham, Alabama-based ridesharing service was launched by Darrell Harris. MoovMo won the 2018 Alabama Launchpad concept track which comes with a $50,000 prize. The business model includes upfront and affordable fares, 24/7 service, vetted and trained drivers, and regularly inspected vehicles, as well as on-demand, dedicated and scheduled rides.

In my interview with Ms. Cyrondys Jackson, we discuss MoovMo's strategy and roll-out plans in Birmingham, Alabama. MoovMo's path to success is more difficult than #Uber's and #Lyft's path because in addition to certifying and training drivers, they also have to make sure that the vehicles that these individuals drive have functioning chair lifts to load their customers. MoovMo has developed partnerships with transit authorities as a way to solidifying demand and giving wheelchair bound travelers more travel flexibility.

The Guerrillapreneur Podcast will focus exclusively interviews with entrepreneurs, business executives and thought leaders who can help you learn how to defeat the corporate giant. Accordingly, Guerrillapreneur News segment (which focuses on Gig and Sharing Economy News) will move to my new Podcast, Gigging: Everything and the Sharing Economy ("Gigging"). You can find Gigging on Spreaker at https://www.spreaker.com/show/gigging-everything-sharing-economy. The executive coach advice that I offered on the Guerrillapreneur Podcast has become its own podcast entitled, Career Coaching Xs and Os. You can find Career Coaching Xs and Os on Spreaker at https://www.spreaker.com/show/careercoaching-xs-and-os.
