Like owning or operating any business there never seems to be a lack of challenges standing between you and your goals. Recently we asked an experienced group of freight agents what was the biggest challenge they are facing today and we were not surprised that the feedback was heavily weighted to “finding truck capacity.”
Below is a video of me interviewing one of LDi’s top freight agents where he shares his strategies for finding and securing truck capacity that has allowed him to build a $5 million freight agency.
Check out the video below, which is intended to be the first in a series of interviews with freight broker agents on topics that matter to them and hopefully to you!
As you can see from the interview there is no magic pill or slight of hand when you’re talking about increasing carrier capacity. The strategies that Mike describes as well as the others listed in my previous blog post 6 Simple Ways Freight Brokers/Agents Can Increase Carrier Capacity are all based upon solid business principals that extend beyond brokering and apply to virtually any business regardless of industry or size.
Please reply or comment with your thoughts on the video including other topics or questions you would like to see featured in the future.
