Methods of convincing Direct Shippers

The way I see it I don't care what the other guys are getting to do it, I need this much and if that's not going to work for you call somebody else.

 

Work on a low margin and see where you're at when the first problem comes up and you have no money. Your living costs are a minor expense.

 

Can't even see what the point of wanting to work for a low margin is. Tons of jobs with far less of a workload where you can make crap money!

 

cut rates add as many trucks as you can even if you are netting 1 cent a mile it will be millions if you get enough miles ........ that's the jb hunt theory on the trucking business and look how well it works for him .... think big and think cheap or get out of the way

 

What's 3 percent of say 20 to 40 grand a week? You really wanna give that up?

Plus if I understood right bid cheaper but let the truck have more?

You ain't a finance major are you?

 

What kind of insurance do brokers carry? Is it for paper cuts or something?

 

Ya know Russ this whole customer thing wasn't a big issue until the mafia got out of trucking ...they were much more loyal ! Lol
