Learning How to Find Loads for My First Truck
👋 Hi, my name is Daisy, I live in Fresno, California, and I plan on making $10,000+ per month dispatching trucks. I have 7 years of experience as a Class A CDL truck driver, and I recently purchased my first truck. My main interest right now is learning how to find and book profitable loads for my own truck and understand the dispatching side of the business. I want to get these 3 things from this course/community: 1. Learn how to find and negotiate high-paying loads for my truck. 2. Learn how to dispatch professionally and build strong relationships with brokers and carriers. 3. Learn how to grow from one truck into multiple trucks and build a successful trucking company. For fun I like to do these 3 things: 1. Spend time with my family. 2. Work on my business goals and learn new things. 3. Travel, drive, and explore new places. My long-term goal is to combine my experience as a driver with dispatching and brokerage knowledge to grow my own trucking company and eventually manage a fleet of trucks.

@Daisy Ruiz welcome to the community! Good luck on your new journey!
Just saying hi
Hello everyone! It's been a minute since I've been able to be on here, with having a full time job, trying to also dispatch for my husband's hotshot company, getting ready for our new entrant safety audit, having my 6 yr old granddaughter for the summer, taking care of the ranch, and on top of all that I decided to write a book to help new hotshot carriers starting out. I'm hoping when school starts back-up in the middle of August I can get back into my courses. How is everyone doing? Congratulations on the ones that has signed their first carrier. 🎉

@Carla Mitchell, yes, my life is very busy; that is one reason I decided to take this course. I want to learn all the ins and outs of becoming a dispatcher for our hotshot company so I can say goodbye to my full-time job. Yes, I already dispatch for our company, but I'm not looking at the load boards like a dispatcher. I want to look at them like a dispatcher and take on a couple of other carriers. I want to work for our company, but I would like to still have my independence. I am also looking to add highland cows to my ranch, which will be more work. I have ADHD and can't sit still. I do not take anything for it, so I use it to my advantage and get things done. 😂 How is the course going for you?

@Clara Russell, my full-time job is from 9-6. I get up between 4-5 and that is when I clean and get things done in my house and do laundry. I will also start looking at the load boards for our company. I work from home with my full-time job. I watch the load boards throughout the day and might have to do the carrier packets sometimes throughout the day. Sometimes it's a challenge. My ranch is my therapy. I love being outside in the pasture with my cows. I can't wait to get my highland cows. Right now I have two 5-month-old calves that I love spending time with. When I get off work, I go out to take care of the cows and our pig and horse. When I get done with all that, I come in and take care of supper, kitchen, and finishing up the evening, lately working on my book. I usually go to bed around 10:30-11. My granddaughter just helps me out here and there while she is here, or she is playing while I am working. She goes home on the weekends. It probably helps that I have ADHD and I do not take anything for it.
Trailers!
Was just reaching out to see what trailers people are dispatching for and which loadboards you are using. I have a couple hopper bottom carriers reaching out to me. The loadboards I have been on seem to only have loads for flatbed, stepdeck, and vans but nothing for hoppers.

One thing we as a carrier, we own a hotshot business, are running into with a 30ft trailer with mega ramps is what most are calling partial loads are partial loads for 40ft or larger. That means their not paying much since it's a partial. It is a huge challenge to find a good paying load.
Hey community….
Hope everyone is doing well and steadily progressing each day towards their goals!!! I have been working so much lately haven’t been able to get on here much. I do have a question/seeking advice from anyone that is tech savvy. I need recommendations on what is a good computer system and best monitors?

Good morning @Marie Richardson ! I understandwhen you say you have been working so much you hardly have been able to get get on here. I have been doing the same thing between my regular 40 hour paying job at a telemed company, owr hotshot business that I have become the dispatcher/admin for, our ranch, I have our granddaughter for the summer, then not that that wasn't enough on my plate; I decided to write a book. I have it finished. Now just proofreading. I was Icould help with your question about computers but I don't know anything about them. Just really wanted to say hi and your not a lone! Good luck with getting though the course and starting a new chapter in your life!
