Independent contractors know that freedom is the real flex

Welcome to Spark Driver™—a platform that’s been making a difference in the lives of independent contractors for over five years. Marianne Sanders, a Springfield, Missouri native, joined the platform on the day it launched in her zone. A seasoned player in the retail and gig economy, she instantly recognized the potential of the Spark Driver platform as an ideal match for her lifestyle. This was just the beginning of her journey.

Today, Marianne is the primary caretaker for four of her six grandchildren. Balancing this responsibility with traditional employment posed to be a challenge, but thanks to the Spark Driver platform, it's a challenge she doesn't have to face as it provides individuals with added flexibility. Whether she wants to take a day to celebrate a grandchild’s birthday or simply wants to make more or less deliveries on a certain day, she can do it all without the need to seek anyone’s permission. After all, being an independent contractor means you are your own boss.

But Marianne’s story doesn’t end there. Her husband, who occasionally logs in to the app with his own account for early morning deliveries, is another testament to the possibilities that come with being a delivery driver. This side hustle not only complements his routine but also provides an additional opportunity for his family to make a profit and add to their income, illustrating the platform's versatility.

Marianne's infectious enthusiasm for the Spark Driver platform has also inspired others. A few years ago, she introduced Bryan, a fellow driver, to the platform. Bryan, intrigued by Marianne's experiences, signed up and started making deliveries. He has now successfully completed numerous trips, with the count still rising. His affinity for travel aligns perfectly with his passion for the Spark Driver platform. Thanks to the ability to easily switch zones in the app, he can travel to numerous locations and still earn – regardless if he’s visiting family and friends, or discovering a new destination in the US.

Stories like Marianne’s and Bryan’s resonate with the core principles of the Spark Driver platform. It's more than just a platform for making deliveries. It's an opportunity for independent contractors to enjoy the freedom, flexibility, and financial opportunities that come with being their own boss. We believe in sharing these opportunities because the Spark Driver platform has shown that freedom is the real flex.
