Meet Ravi from Delhi. Until six months ago, he was delivering food for a major platform — long hours, low pay, constant pressure. Today, he earns ₹800–₹1,000 a day on his own terms doing local tasks through ReachOut.
What Changed?
On delivery platforms, you're assigned work. On ReachOut, you choose it. Ravi picks tasks that fit his route when he's already out. He accepts high-value tasks early morning and evening when demand spikes. He's built a reputation (4.9 stars, 340+ tasks) that gets him accepted quickly for premium tasks.
How to Maximize Earnings
Peak Hours Matter: 9–11 AM and 6–9 PM see the highest task volume in urban areas. Being active during these windows dramatically increases your chances of matching quickly.
Category Selection: Physical Help and Pick & Drop tasks pay significantly more than Quick Errands, but take longer. Find your balance.
Build Your Rating: Your rating is your currency on ReachOut. Requesters filter by rating. A 4.8+ profile gets 3x more acceptances than a 3.5 profile.
Cluster Tasks: Experienced helpers often accept 2–3 tasks in the same area, completing them in sequence. Smart routing = more earnings per hour.
The Numbers
Based on data from active helpers in Tier 1 cities: - Average earnings: ₹650–₹900/day for full-time helpers - Top 10% of helpers: ₹1,200–₹1,800/day - Part-time (4 hours/day): ₹250–₹450
The ceiling is real, and it's well above minimum wage.
