Food delivery service review

I used three food delivery services till date more accurately four. Here are my opinions
1. SWIGGY: If you are caught in sub saharan Africa you can chose this. From here you will get something to fill the gap in your stomach.
Food quality: Average and little above than food sold on Indian streets.
Portion Size: Enough for me but if you love to eat buy 3 meals. KHALI wrestler will eat 100 such portions.
Price: Very high
Delivery executive attitude: Average
Customer Service: Good for nothing
2. Zomato: Order from zomato so your neighbors know you are rich
Food quality: Average. Eat at your own risk.
Portion Size: Enough to dump. Afterall why dustbin is there
Price: you are rich. Why this matters to you.
Delivery executive attitude: What is that? 
Customer Service: Good to talk if you need someone
3. Uber Eats: Go school before you start using this app.
Food quality: Eat what you get. You are not an FDA person
Portion Size: Your stomach is not a store room.
Price: Does not matter
Delivery executive attitude: Shut up. 
Customer Service: No idea
4. Take away kitchens: You eat daily. You are regular customer. You are like family member to them. Dare you can't question. Eat silently keep paying till doctor ask you to not. Pay in full and say thanks also for serving you a meal.

Over to you. In Indian geography restaurants quote 3 times higher prices on food delivery apps than regular counter prices. Quality largely depends on restaurants. Delivery apps need and more kitchens. They will add everyone selling food. Quality does not matter to a delivery service till its making profit. Delivery executives are normally needy guys. They are paid to throw food fast. You can't expect from them. In case of complaints count on customer support. 

Here is my rating at a 5 point scale
1. Swiggy: < 1 point
2. Zomato: 0.5 (Half) Point
3. Uber Eats: 0.25 (Quarter) Point
4. Take away kitchen and local delivery: - 3 (negative three) point.
If you are living solo like me eat at your own risk if you count on such services. Your life will be 20 year short if you can't cook.
Bad food kills early.
PS: I know a person who claims to be MBA guy but now started an eating joint. Neither he know meaning of food nor cooking but it's running. As hungry stomachs are bound to buy.
Till there is no strict regulations about who can operate a commercial kitchen these things will happen
Responsibility is on you, me and us to chose meal options wisely.
Heck food license comes for price and given to those who has links with officials.
PERIOD¦¦¦

Eating joints I enjoyed the most

Delhi: Healthways. Closed now because owner was not satisfied with the way workers performed
Bangalore: Kamat for budget meal Sukh Sagar when I want to spend extra money and and change.
Mumbai: Sukh Sagar at Dadar and Juhu
McDonalds is all time fav in any city. There service quality is up to the mark.

5 Star restaurants have their own story. Restaurant inside Taj Group of Hotels are good in any city.

South is India is better in hygiene than north. They try to maintain cleanliness.

Watch before you eat. Human machine runs from food. Be mindful while choosing you meal and delivery service.

Tip the delivery guys properly if you believe negative vibes will affect you. Tipping means you will end up in trouble, slowly they will expect more and more. DO NOT TIP if ordering food at home.

Why to hire human copywriter when AI can do the job

Good question, that many many many zombies throw at me when I discuss Copywriting. Of course Copywriting is not for zombies. If you are a person or company who has hired a Copywriter to make money then do not hire. Your goal is survival and not zoom or use change as an opportunity. Your question is pretty similar: why drink water when I have sweetlime tree in the backyard and a juicer in the kitchen. However, if you are a professional, business person, company or someone looking to make a change then a Copywriter is worth hiring. Why? If you are a beginner and truly stuck between thoughts of hiring a writer or going with AI, my suggestion is Go with both. Chose a human to use tools, chose a Copywriter to write and encourage him to use AI in creating copy. AI connects you with libraries worldwide and presents data in certain formats. It cannot add human touch. AI can not differentiate between good and bad, AI does not know who is your audience. A Copywriter can seek help from AI to fetc...

Why TINY (small) business shall not count on SEO but paid campaign first

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is very slow process.  If your are a business owner,  already have businesses,  and making profit, then you can hold on,  wait for couple of months to grow your business organically through search engines like Google. However,  if you are a new business and looking for immediate profit,  do not count on SEO.  It's a slow process.  Perhaps,  by the time your business grow through seo you will need to close it because of no actual results. Actual result means sales that can make more money than expenditures. If you are new in business instead of hiring seo guy I will suggest you to spend money on paid campaign like adwords,  Facebook ads etc. If you have better budget,  go hand in hand for paid advertising and seo else put money but WISELY on paid campaigns to generate some quick sales. No, no, do not take a hurried decision. Through paid campaigns you can reach to your potential customers but conv...
