I will probably be murdered for this post but here goes anyhow. I have been lurking here for years and had a old log in but pretty much quit posting and mostly just read and try to keep up.
I have a question for folks out there. How many use or would use a dispatch service? If you would use one what type of features would you like to see? What would be a fee structure or pricing you would like to see?
I ran as a owner operator for 7 years, leased onto a very bad company for 3 months. I now work in logistics dispatching trucks for a brokerage. I would like to break away from this and put my knowledge and contacts to better use. I mainly work in heavy haul and open deck freight so that would be my desired goal as well in dispatching. Seems I need to line up a few small fleets or owner operators so I can make this switch.
Mainly I am just looking for good insight and thoughts on how to run this effectively and most of all so it works well for the carriers.
