Leveraging the connections of the Diamonde Group, Carinen quickly established herpany arid got operations underway. Once the first batch <b>of </b>shared e–bikes <b>was </bunched<b>, </b>she initiated an extensive promotional campaign aimed at capturing <b>a </b>significant market share for the bikes.
Each electric bike had cost <b>over </b>300 dors to produce, and that hadn’t even included all thebor and management fees that followed. With costs that high, they couldn’t afford to lose a single bike, so everyone had been equipped with GPS tracking and a license te.
None of this was in the Diamonde Group’s original project n. Initially, they wanted to replicate the shared bike model and set a high deposit to <b>cover </b>any potential losses. But Carmen thought that just wasn’t realistic.
Those who could afford the deposit didn’t need shared bikes, while those who needed them couldn’t afford the deposit. Therefore, Carmen decided <b>it </b>was more effective to focus on reducing costs and improving management. The deposit will remain the same <b>as </b>for regr bikes<b>, </b>but the price for each ride on electric bikes will be slightly higher.
After a meeting to discuss her idea, Ernesto endorsed it wholeheartedly. The more he observed, the more he became convinced that investing in Carmen was the right choice. Not only did sheunch the project in record time, but she also identified <b>issues </b>and proposed solutions–truly a rising star in his eyes.
“That means the <b>average </b><b>cost </b>for each electric bike just went up,” Ernesto said. <b>It </b>would be challenging for the Diamonde Group to manage all those expenses independently.
However, Carmen didn’t seem worried at all. “Ernesto, remember, our true objective <b>is </b><b>to </b><b>use </b>this project as a gateway into the Wilson Group. <b>As </b>long as we deliver results and have the support of the Wilson Group, money will be the least of our concerns,” she said.
Ernestoughed, realizing he’d been overthinking it. “Carmen, just go for it.”
With Ernesto’s approval, Carmen initiated the first ride in the shared e–bike program. Once they invested heavily in advertising, the results became apparent quickly. The deposit was identical to that of regr bikes. While the electric ones <b>cost </b><i>a </i>few dors per ride, they <b>were </b>significantly more convenient and easier to use. Unsurprisingly, most people began flocking to e–bikes.
Moreover<b>, </b>while regr shared bikes were limited to one rider, the shared e–bikes–designed for individual use–had enough room to amodate a second riderfortably if desired. This slight advantage significantly boosted the usage rates of e–bikes.
“Ms. Carmen, our <b>user </b>numbers are soaring! We’ve ced the first batch of e–bikes around the office buildings and college campuses in Rithol City, and we’re seeing thousands of new users signing up every single day,” one of her team members reported.
“If this continues, it won’t be long before we add ten thousand new users a day,” another person remarked.
Carmen had always disliked being referred to by herst name at work. Everything she had aplished thus <b>far </b>was purely the result of her efforts, distinctly separate from the Wilson family. While she did carry the Wilson surname<b>, </b>like Aubree, <b>she </b>believed she could forge her path without depending on her family’s name.

Everyone in thepany referred to her by name. “Please increase production for the second batch,” Carmen instructed. “Let’s <b>use </b>the data from the first round to determine <b>where </b>to deploy them, and also reach out to the manufacturers over in Südlichen Strand.”

Initially, their target markets were Südlichen Strand and Rithol City, but Carmen was careful not to take on too much at once. She preferred to y it safe by starting with Rithol City <b>as </b>the pilot project, and if <b>it </b>seeded, she would replicate the entire approach in Südlichen Strand. By all ounts, Carmen achieved great sess.
The shared e–bikes had rapidly gained ground, overtaking much of the territory that had once been dominated by regr bikes and pushing shared bicycles out of the market.
Aubree keenly observed the market shift, which came as a surprise to her. “Whoever devised this project is no amateur,” she remarked. Unfortunately, the timing <b>wasn’t </b>ideal.
