Smart-Home Solutions
Peggy says we have a long way to go until we truly have a smart home. There are some key hurdles we have to overcome for this to happen such as interoperability and end-user adoption. She says it is starting to change thanks to companies that engage all of us and will make all of our lives easier.
Personal Driver Service
Alexa Milkovich, vice president of marketing, BeMyDD, says she and her cofounder developed the idea to hire a personal driver that could drive the client in their own personal vehicle for an hourly rate. Also, she explains there are three different avenues to reserve a driver: a mobile app, which is GPS enabled; the Website; and an 877 number to dial.
Convenience is Key
Alexa Milkovich, vice president of marketing, BeMyDD, says the pricing might be slightly higher than a cab, but there is a convenience with having a driver drive your car. She adds BeMyDD has insurance, and it requests all three parties—BeMyDD, the driver, and the customer—be insured as well.
