    Good day all! Hope this post finds you all safe. I'm curious to know where would be the best place to launch a search for Owner Operators? Where are most O/O's looking for opportunities searching? Here on TR, Craigslist, Monster??? What avenue can one travel to find someone who is looking for an opportunity. I'm sure there are plenty of folks out there looking. I'm just not sure if I'm fishing in the right pond! Thanks in advance for your input.

    There's a whole lot of people angling for the same fish...that said, you might have to advertise in a lot of places to get your message in front of those that are looking for a better opportunity. Make sure you describe your opportunity and why it is better. You might start with the free places like Craigslist and see what kind of response you get from there and then move to the paid venues if that doesn't bear any fruit. Good luck!

    FYI, it's not FREE to advertise on Craiglist, they will charge said company.

    I know ppl who have placed ads looking for driver's their and had to pay for Ad.

    if youre a carrier with guys leased on to you already , they feel they,re making money and like the place, word of mouth would be pretty good way
