Hidden fees, high commissions, and driver exploitation have left restaurants struggling to stay afloat. Recognizing this broken system, Troy Smith, CEO of Chop Chop, created a solution designed to empower restaurants and drivers alike while saving money for small businesses.Chop Chop isn't your typical food delivery app. “We're not an ordering app,” Troy explained in today's episode. “We believe restaurants should take their own orders and payments. What we do is connect drivers with restaurants.” This unique approach eliminates the hefty commissions that traditional apps charge—often up to 30% of an order—enabling restaurants to retain more of their revenue.Troy's innovative model is simple yet impactful. Restaurants pay a flat $199 monthly fee to access the app, allowing them to connect with vetted drivers who deliver orders. Unlike other platforms, Chop Chop ensures drivers are paid fairly—directly from the restaurant through Stripe, with funds held in escrow until delivery is confirmed. Customers receive real-time updates via SMS without needing to download the app, while restaurants maintain full control of the customer relationship.This streamlined system offers a lifeline to small businesses, especially mom-and-pop restaurants, which have been disproportionately affected by high delivery fees. “Deliveries have become a huge revenue stream for restaurants, especially since COVID,” Troy shared. “But the current system just isn't working. Restaurants are paying more money to send food to their own customers than ever before.”Chop Chop's mission extends beyond financial benefits. Many drivers and restaurants in the network are first-generation immigrants who often face exploitation in the gig economy. “FundingHope really resonated with us because they're looking out for the small guy,” Troy said. Chop Chop's crowdfunding campaign on FundingHope invites customers, drivers, and supporters to invest in the platform and help scale this game-changing solution.For just $199 a month—less than the price of a cup of coffee per day—restaurants can reclaim control, drivers can earn fairly, and customers can support their favorite local businesses without guilt. Chop Chop is more than a delivery app; it's a movement to restore fairness and transparency in food delivery.Visit ChopChop.mobi or FundingHope to learn more about this revolutionary app and its crowdfunding campaign.tl;dr:Troy Smith explains how Chop Chop empowers restaurants by eliminating high delivery fees and exploitation.The platform charges restaurants a flat $199 monthly fee, connecting them with vetted drivers for deliveries.Chop Chop ensures drivers are paid fairly via Stripe, fostering transparency and trust in the process.Inspired by personal experiences and challenges during COVID, Troy created a practical, scalable solution.The company invites investors to join its FundingHope campaign, supporting a fairer food delivery ecosystem.How to Develop Making a Plan As a SuperpowerTroy Smith's superpower, as he describes it, is the ability to “make a plan.” Growing up in Zimbabwe, he adopted the Afrikaans phrase maak a plan, meaning to solve problems through creativity and resourcefulness. “When something presents itself, a challenge, something is going wrong, you make a plan,” Troy explained in this episode.One powerful story that exemplifies this superpower occurred during the early days of COVID. Troy visited a small Japanese restaurant, where the owner, short on staff, asked him to deliver food for $10. This simple act planted the seed for Chop Chop. “She made the plan for me,” Troy said, “and I realized we could turn this into an app, connecting drivers with restaurants while ensuring fair pay.”To develop this superpower, Troy suggests starting with observation. “Instead of jumping in and trying to fix things, take a moment to see what's going on,” he shared. Identifying the root cause of a problem is key to crafting an effective solution. He also emphasizes the importance of systems, a lesson he learned while running McDonald's franchises in South Africa.By following Troy's example and advice, you can make problem-solving a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileTroy Smith (he/him):CEO, Chop ChopAbout Chop Chop: Chop Chop is a logistics platform that empowers restaurants to run first-party delivery without the costs and headaches of hiring their own drivers. We are not an ordering platform. Restaurants continue to take orders and payments directly from their customers. We connect them with local verified drivers who are screened for license and insurance and who complete deliveries on demand. Unlike third-party apps, we do not take commissions or add hidden fees. Instead, we charge a flat subscription, allowing restaurants to keep more revenue, drivers to earn fairly, and customers to avoid surprise charges.Website: chopchop.mobiOther URL: invest.fundinghope.com/offering/chop-chop/detailsBiographical Information: Troy Smith is the co-founder and CEO of Chop Chop, a logistics platform that helps restaurants run first-party delivery without relying on costly third-party apps. A former McDonald's franchisee, Troy understands firsthand the challenges restaurants face with slim margins and complex operations.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1136: An IRS update that could save EV buyers thousands, how Cadillac is quietly staging a luxury comeback and the deeper impact of AI on software development—and whether vibe-coding is helping or hollowing out the craft.The IRS has provided a much-needed clarification that gives EV buyers a path to still claim the federal tax credit—even if their vehicle hasn't been delivered by the September 30th deadline.Buyers who sign a binding purchase agreement and make a payment by September 30, 2025, can still claim the $7,500 (new) or $4,000 (used) EV tax credit.This clarification resolves confusion around the “placed in service” language, which had been interpreted to mean vehicles had to be delivered before the deadline.Deliveries can now happen after the deadline as long as paperwork and payment are completed beforehand.Dealers must provide a “time of sale report” within three days of vehicle delivery to support the buyer's claim.The clarification comes as EV demand has surged this summer, with analysts crediting savvy shoppers aiming to lock in the credit before its sunset.Cadillac's electric vehicle momentum is giving the brand a shot at reclaiming its former glory in the luxury segment—this time with plugs instead of prestige grilles.Cadillac's U.S. sales have risen for 12 straight quarters, with EVs making up about a third of sales in the past two months.That figure far outpaces both the broader industry (6–8%) and even the luxury segment (14%) for EV market share.Most EV buyers are trading in vehicles from Audi, BMW, and Mercedes—brands that have long outshined Cadillac.Even Tesla is losing 1 in 10 trade-ins to the American luxury brand.“They're now beyond where we expect the industry to be five years from now,” said J.D. Power's Tyson Jominy. “Success today does not necessarily mean success tomorrow.”As AI-assisted vibe coding tools proliferate, developers are grappling with what gets gained—and lost—when code becomes more suggestion than craftsmanship.AI tools now help with everything from debugging to database encryption to entire app scaffolding.While helpful, these tools can also produce bloated, disjointed code without strong editorial guidance.Critics worry that fluency in core principles is eroding, replaced by reliance on “good enough” automation.“It may be the easiest time in history to be a coder,” the author writes, “but it's perhaps harder than ever to grow into a software engineer.”0:00 Intro with Kyle Mountsier and Michael Cirillo1:15 What Kyle and Michael would do with a 2-day work week2:42 Upcoming ASOTU Edge Webinar with vAuto on Sept 103:22 EVs Delivered Post-Sept 30 Can Still Receive Tax Credit5:59 Cadillac Sales Grow For 12 Straight Quarters8:25 Vibe Coding Making Coding Easier, But Not GoodJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

In this episode of the Fleet News Group podcast, we sit down with Joe Sofra, CEO of ANC Delivers, to explore the company's bold journey to electrify last mile deliveries. With a history stretching back over 100 years — from delivering theatre tickets on bicycles to powering today's e-commerce giants like Bunnings, IKEA, JB Hi-Fi, and Telstra — ANC has built its reputation on innovation and customer experience.Joe reflects on the landmark 2019 partnership with IKEA that committed to 100% zero-emission home deliveries by 2025, a move that pushed ANC to the forefront of sustainability in logistics. He candidly shares the challenges of starting with first-generation EVs, the learning curve of range anxiety, charging solutions, and engaging contractor drivers in the transition.By World EV Day 2025, ANC reached a major milestone: more than 100 electric vehicles on the road. Joe explains how this achievement has deepened relationships with partners and delivery professionals, while also transforming the customer experience — from quieter streets to greener driveways.Looking ahead, ANC is targeting 300+ EVs by 2028 and is rethinking efficiency with a “carbon cost per order” approach, aiming to do more with fewer vehicles. For Joe, the mission is clear: electric vehicles are not just viable for metro last mile deliveries — they're the future.This conversation highlights ANC's role as a pioneer of zero-emission logistics and its commitment to creating lasting smiles for customers while cutting carbon emissions.

Welcome to the fifth episode of Retail Reflections! This week, our hosts are joined by Yassin, who brings fresh insights from their work experience and adds a new perspective to the conversation.We kick things off with Pinterest's new curated thrift shop, a digital-first initiative that puts circular fashion and vintage finds directly into shoppers' feeds. The team explores how this move reflects the growing appetite for secondhand style, and how platforms like Pinterest are reimagining the resale experience for a generation that wants both sustainability and style at their fingertips.Next up, we dive into Marks & Spencer's evolving approach to secondhand fashion. From their long-standing “schwopping” scheme to their new partnership with eBay and Reskinned, M&S is finding ways to make sustainable shopping more accessible, appealing, and mainstream. We discuss how collaborations like this could help reshape consumer perceptions of preloved clothing.The conversation then turns to menswear, as M&S launches a dedicated Instagram channel for men's fashion. With younger male shoppers increasingly style-conscious and engaged online, retailers are recognising the demand for fresh, trend-led menswear content. We look at how this shift is changing the way brands speak to male audiences, and what it means for the future of men's fashion retail.We also celebrate a milestone moment for the industry with Jo Whitfield's appointment as the first female chair of the British Retail Consortium. This sparks a wider discussion about women in leadership, the significance of representation at the top, and how the retail sector is (slowly) shifting toward greater inclusivity and diversity in its leadership ranks.From there, the team reacts to Frasers Group's surprising pivot into leisure and activity spaces with “We Do Play.”Is this a clever diversification strategy or a risky step away from their retail roots? We unpack the thinking behind the move and what it says about the future of lifestyle-driven retail experiences.The episode also takes a candid look at the fast fashion shakeup, with PrettyLittleThing's recent struggles under the spotlight. With fierce competition from disruptive players like Shein and Temu, and the challenges of refreshing a brand in a rapidly changing market, we discuss what the future may hold for PLT and the wider ultra-fast fashion space.Finally, we wrap things up on a futuristic note with the story of robot dogs being trialled for parcel deliveries in Leeds. From practicalities to public perception, the team shares their thoughts on what this might mean for automation in retail and logistics — and whether we're ready for four-legged couriers on our streets.As always, expect personal anecdotes, industry insights, and plenty of laughs along the way.Thanks for tuning in!

The White House says President Trump's executive orders on drones, signed earlier this month, will "unleash American drone dominance." It directs the Federal Aviation Administration to expedite the development of new rules governing the operation and flight paths of unmanned aircraft systems. It will also loosen some regulations, create new ones, and attempt to integrate drones into air traffic more effectively. Michael Healander is the founder and CEO of the drone operations management company, Airspace Link. He was on the White House call about the executive orders. Healander joined FOX News Rundown host Chris Foster to discuss the new rules and how drones may be used in the future, including package deliveries and air taxis, also known as flying cars. We often must cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear the full interview. Today on FOX News Rundown Extra, we will share our entire interview with Airspace Link CEO Michael Healander, allowing you to learn even more about the incredible future of drones.

But the truth is ... no one seems to care about Tesla's deliveries. All eyes are on the Robotaxi launch coming late in June (tentatively). The new metric to focus on will be Robotaxi Rides not Cars Delivered. We are entering a new era for Tesla!
