🥴 "Starting A Dispatching Business Is HARD..."
I hear this all the time… And honestly? They're right. Starting a dispatching business isn’t for the faint-hearted. Some weeks, it feels like you’re stuck—no loads, no carriers, and you still don't know how to actually dispatch. You might even wonder: Is this all worth it? But here’s the thing… this stage is completely normal. It’s tough now, but these early challenges are laying the foundation for your success. And in order to overcome them, here’s exactly what you need to do: 1. See the Big Picture • Remember why you started—write it down if you need to. • Visualize the life and success you’re working toward. • Remind yourself of the progress you’ve already made. Keeping your “why” in mind makes tough days feel easier to tackle. 2. Set Daily, Bite-Sized Goals • Break larger goals into small, actionable steps. • Celebrate each small win; it builds confidence. • Set 3–5 priorities each day and focus on those only. Small, steady wins build unstoppable momentum over time. 3. Don’t Wait for Perfect Conditions • Take action on ideas today, even if they’re not perfect. • Focus on progress over perfection—perfection will come. • Let mistakes be lessons and adjust along the way. Waiting for “perfect” leads to stagnation—start now and adapt. 4. Focus on Inputs, Not Outputs • Track daily activities like calls, outreach, and follow-ups. • Set “input goals” (or actions) instead of focusing on “output goals” (or results). • Evaluate your inputs weekly to see what’s working. Consistent input builds the habits that lead to successful outcomes. 5. Get Help When You Need It • Connect with those who have already succeeded in your field. • Ask specific questions to those you look up to. • Implement the strategies they recommend to avoid guesswork. Learning from those ahead of you shortens your path to success. Here’s the deal: These hard times aren’t here to break you—they’re here to build you. Push through, and you’ll be stronger and more successful than you ever imagined...

"Anything worth having isn't easy to get." I have had this philosophy embedded in my mind since a very young age. I don't know who said it or where I heard or learned it from, but it's the darn truth.

Red Ocean VS Blue Ocean: Which Are YOU In?
If you’re a truck dispatcher, you’ve probably felt this: “Saturated Market Syndrome.” • that feeling when it seems like every dispatcher is chasing the same loads • the worry that there’s no room left to make a real profit • the constant “analysis paralysis” of trying to find a way to stand out Here’s the truth: success in dispatching isn’t about outworking everyone in a crowded space; it’s about creating a unique path of your own. In business, they call this finding your “Blue Ocean” instead of struggling in a “Red Ocean.” • Red Ocean: It’s crowded, competitive, and exhausting. Everyone’s fighting for the same clients, bidding on the same loads, and trying to juggle more carriers than they can handle. • Blue Ocean: This is where you stand out. You find untapped lanes, work with specific types of loads, or position yourself as the go-to dispatcher for a particular region or niche. This is where your dispatching business can thrive. Instead of competing for low-paying loads in a saturated market, you’re creating a space where you call the shots. It’s profitable. And it’s a game-changer. So, how can you create your own “Blue Ocean” in dispatching? 1. Stop Overthinking, Start Moving A lot of dispatchers hold back, spending too much time analyzing which lanes, regions, or carriers to work with. Truth is, you won’t find your “Blue Ocean” by just thinking about it—you need to dive in. Book loads, test new regions, and get hands-on experience. That’s how you find what works. 2. Map Out Your Competition Get clear on the “Red Ocean” around you. Look at what other dispatchers are doing: which lanes they focus on, their client types, and their rates. Then ask, “Where can I be different?” Maybe you can specialize in short-haul, high-value loads or become the go-to dispatcher for specific regions. 3. Find Your X Factor What unique skills or connections do you have? Maybe you’re great at negotiating with brokers or have strong relationships in certain states. Lean into what makes you unique and use it to stand out in a crowded market.

based on the fishing trip that I just got back from last weekend, I feel like I'm in the red ocean hahaha. We did poorly.
Truk.ai Dark Mode?
Hello, is there a dark mode setting for truk.ai? If so, how do I apply it?

@Pablo Escoba I'm still in Week 2. If it was in a video up to this point, then I missed it. Are you saying there is a way, and I need to go back thru all the videos until I find it?

I made a mistake and got ahead, and now it's going to cost me some valuable time. I hope this message helps you not make the same mistake I did. Gupreet and Manny have put together a very valuable training program that will take you step-by-step through all the processes of creating your company, your website, your email, everything! After I completed Week 1 of the training, I had it in my mind that I needed to accomplish all these things before I could start Week 2 of training. Little did I know that in Week 2, Gupreet will walk you through the steps, so you're not on your own in this business venture. He will help you get everything set up. I got my website thru Wix, which was a huge mistake. Wix was not very user friendly to me at all. When I contacted their customer service, they forwarded me to a third-party support, which required me to pay them more money to get the help I needed with the Wix site. Wix does not allow you to manage your DNS settings or add nameservers to your domain account settings. They will not allow CloudFlare or any other company to be paired/linked to their domain. Once you start a domain with a company, that domain is locked for 60 days according to ICANN regulations, and you cannot transfer the domain to another provider at all. So, I am stuck for 2 months before I can move on with my training here and there's nothing I can do about it. Now, I got all these subscriptions that will be billed regularly for a company I can't even get started. To say I'm frustrated with myself and with Wix is an understatement. Just listen to Gupreet and Manny and follow along with the training program. They will help you do everything. I know you may be very enthusiastic about starting your new business venture, but don't get ahead!
