🚛 BEFORE YOU BOOK YOUR FIRST LOAD… READ THIS.
Most new dispatchers think the business starts when you book a load.
It doesn’t.
It starts with PREPARATION.
If you don’t have these things ready, you’re already behind:
✅ Carrier packet completed and organized
✅ MC & DOT verified
✅ Insurance on file
✅ Equipment details written down (length, weight capacity, straps, tarps, etc.)
✅ Target lanes written down
✅ Minimum rate per mile goal set
If you don’t know:
– What your carrier needs per mile
– What lanes you’re targeting
– What equipment limitations you have
You’re just guessing on the load board.
And guessing costs money.
🔥 Assignment For Today:
Drop below:
- What equipment are you dispatching?
- What city/state are they based in?
- What is their MINIMUM rate per mile goal?
If you don’t know #3 yet — say “Need help calculating.”
We’re building this the right way from the foundation up.
No rushing.
No guessing.
No fake motion.
We’re learning to move strategically.
