transportme™ would again like to announce yet another partnership with a proud family owned and operated company..


Caroline Gardner Bus Service of Gresford NSW spoke with our team not long ago - and immediately recognised the benefits we could provide their company.  transportme™  are now pleased to announce that Caroline and her team have since signed up with the most innovative and exciting system in Australia, and looking forward to reaping the benefits we can offer!!!







Our footprint around Australia and New Zealand is growing every month, with close to 200 buses using our system every single day - take a look:







Friday is Travel Day


We have been very busy over the past few weeks travelling - as Friday's are now our 'travel days'.  If you are genuinely interested in our system and want to have a demo before joining the transportme™ family, we are more than happy to make the trip to sit down and have a chat.

The past 6 weeks we have visited operators in Dorrigo, Bellingen, South Australia, Armidale and Goulburn.


We have had a lot of enquiries recently from NSW operators - it does not matter your size - you are required to provide the new 'Operator Reports' to TfNSW - and we are here to help you do that - simply and affordably!

  Dont be shy - give Nigel a call or
email today - you will be pleasantly surprised.

A quick word...

 
When you are setting up transportmein your company, please make sure you explore available options when purchasing the main equipment - being your Apple iPad Minis.  

Do not simply accept a Telstra Plan that might be a $40 per month bundled plan.  You may be able to purchase the iPad outright and organise a $50 pre-paid sim.  The cost savings over 2 years are a big difference.  Please have a chat to Nigel before committing to your purchase - as the savings we can suggest, will mean your subscriptions become free!


 

================================================================



 
Do you have the time to ensure your required reporting is completed daily and ready to be audited on request?


Do not fall short with your reporting...
Speak to the transportme™ team to help you out.


Please allow us an opportunity to quote you on our system - remembering we are not limited,
as are many systems or 'Reporting Companies', to just reporting.  

We also give you Real-Time GPS for both you and your passengers, Ticketing, Smartcards, Messaging, Paperless Driver Manuals, and a host of other innovations no other system can offer.



Our reports are not reliant on the driver or manager entering information from a verbal or paper report...
Why perform double-entry if you don't have to???



We can ensure these reports are completed within our app - at the appropriate time, and the data is transferred over the cloud to your CMS seamlessly.


Nice & Simple.


The way it should be by now.

transportme™ is not limited to that function
.  


We can also give your operation driver logins, pre-departure checks, GPS Tracking for you and your patrons, smartcard passes, fuel information and reports, instant and future messaging to your fleet, and many more exciting updates and features that will be released in the future.  transportme™ is not simply for the medium or large operators - it helps everyone!!
 


Please remember, this is what you get with the patented transportme™ system when you purchase our app:

  • Real-Time GPS Tracking of your fleet through the CMS (Content Management System) on any web enabled device.  This includes desktop, laptop, tablet and smartphone...and it can be used on multiple devices simultaneously.
  • Free Real-Time GPS Tracking of your fleet on smartphones for your patrons through the 'Transportme Passenger' app - available on the Apple App Store and Google Play store for iPhones and Android Phones.
  • A Ticketing system that is simple to use but extremely smart

Your only other costs are..

  1. Monthly transportme™ Subscription Fees:  From $35 - $50 per bus per month + GST  
  2. Your Cellular Fees:  Telstra offer a Pre-Paid Sim for $50 per year per bus for 5gb of Data = $4.20 per bus per month
  3. Your iPad Mini:  You can buy new for around $500 or second hand for $250 (you run the iPad to constant power in bus, so battery life is not an issue)


We can also sell you the transportme™ iPad Mini Case for $180 + gst if you do want to use these.

As a price comparison, transportme™ is approximately 1/3 the cost of other Ticketing/GPS/Reporting Systems on the market -

and we do not charge a yearly Support & Maintenance Fee!!!!

Firstly, for those of you who do not know me, my name is Nigel Tooth, and I am the Managing Director and founder of one of the most innovative systems to disrupt the transport industry in the past decade...


                            

I myself am also a bus operator in NSW - our family owns and operates Ryans Bus Service in Coffs Harbour - Woolgoolga - Grafton.  We are a medium sized operator (running 32 buses), and have been in business since 1943.  Hence, our family has extensive knowledge of the bus industry.  

I am also the North Coast Chairperson for BusNSW.  My own knowledge in the industry is one of the major reasons I developed transportme™ - I knew the pain points for bus operators when dealing with Ticketing/Reporting/GPS and I knew how it could be improved and passed on to operators at an affordable rate - for ALL sized companies.

transportme is the most innovative and affordable system to break into the market in recent years.  We are on top of the new contract offers and both the reporting and KPI's that will be required by all sized operators to ensure there requirements are met simply and accurately.  
 

It is important to know, that because I am an operator myself - I know the system has to work well, as I need to ensure our own contract KPI's and Reporting are met - just like yours!

 

We now have operators using our renowned system in NSW, QLD, VIC, TAS, SA and NZ!

Here are just some of the operators who have discovered the benefits of our system:
