Good Morning…. Should I slow down?

I have a sit down with two trucking companies today that are struggling on the road. Both companies have 6-8 trucks. The owner drives the truck and is dispatching them as well for both companies. I know them from my time driving. And plus more companies I know. I told them I’m starting a dispatching company and the very first thing they asked is what’s going to make me different from everyone else that calls them. I told him that I’m not fixing to promise you the world and all this money. But I will promise you success in your trucking company. And with success comes a weight off your shoulders with paperwork, negotiating, and etc. they even asked could I handle backend paperwork and I started thinking about a team then. But I told him my percentage would go up in that case. I say that to say this. There are carriers/owner ops out there needing help. We gotta put boots on the ground and go out there and get it! Rule of thumb. The old school truckers don’t believe everything they see on Facebook or social media. Sometimes we gotta get out our comfort zone and do something different! Hope you guys have a great day!
