DESCRIPTION

This product (Shuttle Services Firm - 5 Year Financial Model) is an Excel template (XLSX), which you can download immediately upon purchase.

A shuttle service regularly transports 10 or more travelers, typically by bus or van, from one place to another. Shuttles are attractive to travelers because they are often cheaper than self-parking or taxis.
There are essentially two types of shuttles: scheduled shuttle services, which run on a pre-scheduled loop between set locations, and on-demand shuttle services, which go to and from different locations depending on the passengers' needs.
With travel increasing once again, now is a good time to start a shuttle service. Shuttle services now have a unique opportunity to partner with area businesses—including hotels and shopping centers—to capitalize on increased activity in the travel, hospitality, and retail sectors. If run efficiently and effectively, shuttle services can be a good way to make money—particularly if they tap into high-traffic routes or use technology to run their routes more optimally.

This Financial Model presents an business scenario of a startup Shuttle Services Firm offering both scheduled and on-demand shuttle services.
