ABOUT THIS GUIDE Since June of 2021 The CarShare Academy has studied nearly 200 markets to provide hosts with the business intelligence they need to build a fleet consisting of the right vehicles to match the demand pattern for their city. A team of data specialists extracts multiple sets of data from the Turo database, assembles them, and sends the workbook to Lead Coach William Huffhine for review, analysis, and interpretation to complete the Market Guide. This process can take anywhere from 4 to 8 hours depending upon city. No scrapers or crawlers are used to extract this data as such technology can provide erroneous results.
