Responsibilities

As an independent agent you will be working for yourself, utilizing our platforms and solutions to generate an income. As a result you will be responsible for the following.

You will need to approach clients that may be interested in advertising on our platform, assist them in filling out the application form, capture their offer on our Agent BackOffice, and finalize payment.

It would be in your own best interest to promote the DELIVA app, since the more users we have the more valuable the platform becomes.

You can start by following us on AllSocial, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, and Twitter.

The Agent BackOffice is filled with a variety of marketing resources, including flyers, banners, and buttons, that you may utilize on social media, in print, or in conventional advertising.

Remuneration

In South Africa agents can earn anything from R400 to R2000 per day, during their first year, and significantly more thereafter due to renewals.

Perks

Agents may post offers from their own businesses for free.

Future Opportunities

We are currently developing and implementing a range of new features, including a panic button, crash detection, shopping assistant, peer-to-peer delivery, ride-sharing, and ride-hailing – all of which our agents may soon utilise to expand their offerings and diversify their income.

Ultimately, we aim to develop a flourishing network of independent DELIVA agencies around the globe.

Application Process

In order to apply, please email EJ Hill – ej@delivait.com

Frequently Asked Questions

Any remaining questions? Please ask Stephen Diederichs – stephen@delivait.com

Panic Button

Now that the coupon platform is available, we will focus our attention on our users’ safety and security.

Just a glimpse of global crime statistics is enough to frighten anyone. (Aljazeera, 2020; RAINN, n.d.)

As a result, we started work on our very own personal security platform – “panic button” of sorts.

Portability

Unlike most panic buttons on the market, ours will be completely portable.

Not only within the confines of your property, but almost anywhere you may go, provided that you have either, internet connectivity or cellular reception.

Emergency Contacts

The app will allow you to list up to four (4) emergency contacts, to be alerted in case of emergency.

Failover

In an attempt to ensure delivery your emergency contacts will be notified via both SMS and WhatsApp, simultaneously.

Audible Confirmation

Upon activation the user will receive an audible confirmation that the panic was successfully triggered. We do this for two reasons.

  1. To prevent the user from having to check their device to verify activation, thereby distracting him or her from imminent danger.
  2. To prevent false alarms, since the user will be alerted to accidental triggers, allowing them the timely opportunity to cancel and thereby update their emergency contacts and services.

Cancelling False Alarms

Users may accidentally trigger a false alarm by shaking or dropping their phone, at which point they will receive an audible alert notifying them of their error.

The user will then have the timely opportunity to cancel the false alarm, at which point all his or her emergency contacts will receive an update informing them of the false alarm.

Armed Response

Apart from the user’s own emergency contacts, we also intend to support existing security services, by allowing our users to subscribe to their armed response services via our platform.

Neighborhood Watches

We also intend to support the various neighborhood watches, by allowing our users and their existing members to subscribe to their services via our platform.

NOTE: This will take a huge administrative schlep off their shoulders, since our platform will not only collect their subscription fees, but also provide them with monthly membership reports and accompanying financial statements.

Police Services

Finally, we intend to provide police services with a touch screen-enabled graphic user interface (GUI) to facilitate timely alerts, effective tracking 1, and rapid response.

Footnotes

  1. Live tracking will only commence upon panic activation, and end upon cancellation.

Crash Detection

Now that the coupon platform is available, we will focus our attention on our users’ safety and security in case of vehicular accidents.

Nearly 1.25 million people die in road crashes each year. An additional 20 to 50 million are injured or disabled. More than half of these road traffic deaths occur among young adults ages 15-44. (Association for Safe International Road Travel, n.d.)

As a result, we started work on our very own crash detection platform.

Portability

As with our panic button, our crash detection app will be completely portable.

Not only within the confines of your property, but almost anywhere you may go, provided that you have either, internet connectivity or cellular reception.

Emergency Contacts

The app will allow you to list up to four (4) emergency contacts, to be alerted in case of emergency.

Failover

In an attempt to ensure delivery your emergency contacts will be notified via both SMS and WhatsApp, simultaneously.

Audible Confirmation

Upon activation the user will receive an audible confirmation that the crash was successfully detected. We do this for two reasons.

  1. To prevent the user from having to check their device to verify activation, since they may be incapacitated.
  2. To prevent false alarms, since the user will be alerted to accidental triggers, allowing them the timely opportunity to cancel and thereby update their emergency contacts and services.

Cancelling False Alarms

Users may accidentally trigger a false alarm by throwing or dropping their phone, at which point they will receive an audible alert notifying them of their error.

The user will then have the timely opportunity to cancel the false alarm, at which point all his or her emergency contacts will receive an update informing them of the false alarm.

Emergency Services

Apart from the user’s own emergency contacts, we will also rally existing emergency services, including ambulance services 1, fire brigades 2, and law enforcement 3. (Head, 2018; Oukula, 2015)

Footnotes

  1. Ambulance services like ER24 and NetCare 911.
  2. Fire brigades like that of the City of Tshwane.
  3. Law enforcement, like the South African Police Services (SAPS) and highway patrol.

Coupon platform launched

It is with great pleasure that we announce the public beta launch of DELIVA’s Direct Marketing Platform – an international, location-aware, curated, public deals platform for both online and offline businesses.

The platform is just the first of many coming to DELIVA.

Development

DELIVA has been in development since January 2019.

We spent almost a week prototyping the original concept, after which we spent many a weekend video conferencing.

Interface

The coupon section of DELIVA now features four tabs, including:

  • Near Me, which displays all the offers, by distance from the user’s current location.
  • A-Z, which sorts all the offers within 100 kilometers of the user’s current location in alphabetical order.
  • Categories, which sorts all the offers within 100 kilometers of the user’s current location into categories: accommodation, etc.
  • Travel, (coming soon) will assist users in planning outings, road trips and getaways to remote locations.

Coupons

New discount offers are being added daily.

All our offers are manually verified to prevent redundant offers from slipping through the cracks.

Currently, we only have a handful of offers available, which will increase dramatically as our network of agents, agencies and advertisers expand.

NOTE: We need more agents and agencies to represent our platform.

Promotions

From time-to-time we may also include a handful of promotional entries from affiliate partners. These entries are normally identified as a PROMOTION. 

Promotions do not feature discount codes. Savings are automatically applied by simply launching the website and registering.

Download

DELIVA is currently only available on Google Android in public beta via the Google Play App Store.

NOTE: The app will be ported to iOS soon.

Advertising

At this point you are probably wondering, how do I get my company, products or services on this platform?

Advertising is really simple. Just contact EJ Hill at ej@delivait.com
