History: RideAlly crosses 10000 mark

RideAlly recently achieved one small milestone. We crossed 10000 mark for users who have shared rides in past or are active now.

We launched it first time with very basic features on Sep’13 and it took us long 4 yrs to cross this small milestone. It is still satisfactory that we could survive and at last, people are carpooling and bikepooling.

It took 1 yr to get to 1000+ users and many startups usually get that many users in 1 month or less. We changed our approach and relaunched again. Got next 1000+ users with new approach but still it was not leading anywhere.

Again, we revised our approach, architecture, marketing strategy etc and relaunched in Jun’15. It got little better and got 2500+ users in next 1 year but it is still not enough. No revenue so far and expenses were not reducing. Got great support from friends and family in form of investment and loan.

So again, revised everything, got better understanding of human behavior, talked to big corporates, understood their concerns, got newer opportunities and relaunched in Apr’16 the Corporate version (B2B) of RideAlly. Got 1st corporate in Jun’16 and understood that this is the way to survive. Focused on product and Corporates. Many corporates showed interest but no one was ready to pay. Build many corporate specific features and relaunched in Jan’16.

Got 2500+ users in last 3 months only and Employees from 5+ Corporates are sharing rides. There is no looking back now.
