Sales strategy
The service which Bykea provides is as per need of the customer, as the one in need to travel
having no vehicle will opt for Bykea or the one wants to deliver their parcel will opt the same,
but it is difficult to be significant and faithful in the eye of the customer. But the sales strategy

At the beginning Vheels started with limited no of staff to serve the economy but later on as the
work came in process Vheels replicate their employees, introduced more riders in their company.

those strategies creativity is important in which Bykea focuses a lot. Its creativeness is delivery
of parcels. Bykea keep its record online ore than manual based. The security of customer’s data
is highly appreciated.
