My First Carrier, You wont believe this.
So there are alot of people that are asking "HOW" did you get your first carrier? This is how I got mine and where it has taken me. This is un natural. Here we go............ So I hit DU like I was going to get executed if I didnt complete the whole course and halfway know what I am doing. I started October 15th 2025. I did everything and learned all there was to learn in about 3.5 months. I did have set backs like $$ even though it was not much, at the time it was sooooo much. My computer took a dump, older iMac that would not do updates anymore. I started posting content on FB. My very first carrier went to my web page and booked an appointment. I just ended up calling him as soon as I got his contact information that landed in truk.ai, I noticed it probably a couple days after it landed. I didnt understand it all at that time. So I called him and he answered. He instantly told me he was a driver for 30 years and he got back in with a bad ass Hot Shot set up. He told me he HATES Brokers and their lying tactics, he would argue with them and it would get very heated when he would pop them on those lies. He said he is done dealing with them and needs a dispatcher. I went for the juggler and sent him the contract and list of items needed to get him going. I did not know he has full blown diabeties at this time. After gathering all required and completeing the onboarding and signing the contract. YES I sold it at 10% and NO I have never worked for free even when my ad said FREE for 14 Days. Most real people in this business will NOT care what it costs them to help them succeed, make more $ and relieve the stress. If they are serious 10% is cheap. So he called me up and said I need to postpone starting because of his diabetes. He looses his vision, it is bad. So I put him off on the sidelines. I did get a lead from here in DU, that was my second one. From there it went very slow. I got another carrier from them then a Box Truck from my content. I ended up firing the Box Truck, he was a back stabbing snake. He called me in Florida stuck and he couldn't get out. I booked him $5500 in 3 days and landed him right back in Florida 10 miles at a drop from his house. He called me and said "DAMM you took care of that like nothing and with ease, are you feeling me Louis? You know what I am trying to say? I said yes and Thank you" I pitched him again to be his full time dispatcher, he agreed and the next week started. He told me he wanted to leave on Monday, so I started looking all weekend to learn. I booked him a load and he never told me he left on Sunday booking his load with his "other dispatcher" I was like WHAT? He never told me, booked with his other dispatcher and I booked him a good load for Monday. I heard that and I immediatly told him well, good luck I do not work for your anymore. Bye. He called me 2 times over the next week, I never answered that call. That was a learning experience for me.

@Louis Cruz Wow, that's impressive. I'm still in the researching stage. I can definitely see where all your work is paying off. Keep it up! That's great!
Hi, I'm Lori!
Hi my name is Lori. I live in Mississippi and I plan on making $5000 per month dispatching trucks. I want to get these 3 things from this course/community: 1.A solid understanding of how dispatching works. 2. An understanding of how to effectively utilize the tools necessary to be good at dispatching. 3. Hopefully build some connections so that we can all help each other moving forward. For fun I like to do these 3 things: 1. Cooking (and growing a food garden) 2. Travel (I have lived in 9 countries and been to most of the states within the Continental US) 3. Learn memes and slang to keep up with what my daughter is talking about.๐Ÿคฃ.

No AI slop. Dispatcher University (Free) is for real dispatchers who want to connect with other real dispatchers. This free community is here to help people learn how to start & grow a successful dispatch business from dispatchers with actual experience. Not from lazy AI copy-paste posts or responses. Not from ChatGPT answers with no real world value. So... if you see an AI post, please report it. We will delete and BAN with no warning. This community should be the best place on the internet for truck dispatchers who want to go from $0 to $10K/month with no experience. And you can only do that if you're learning from other dispatcher's successes and failures. If someone wants a generic ChatGPT answer, they can go ask ChatGPT themselves. What makes this place valuable is real people, real experience, and real conversations. Connection > content. Hopefully... I'm not the only one that's sick of the AI slop all over the internet. P.S. This is not directed at anyone. I just want to make everyone aware of the rules moving forward.

@Gurpreet Gill Thank you! I'm so tired of AI content making everything worse. That's refreshing to find places that still want actual human engagement and critical thinking skills.

@Tashima Potts that's an awesome goal! I live in an inexpensive area so I set my goal at 5000 per month to start. Realistically, I think it seems reasonable to be able to move beyond that pretty quickly. I love your attitude. How have you been doing so far with this course? I also love to travel.

@Tasha Coprich Sounds like a great plan! I had an injury that makes me job difficult. I've been doing physical therapy for several months and thinking about the long term impact of doing physical labor. Dispatching seemed like a good step. I'm also interested in learning about back office, load board and all that. Hoping we can all keep each other motivated. Have a great day! Good luck in your endeavors.
