    2%-3% for finding a load on a load board? 4-6K per year for... a few customers with 10-15 trucks and you can make a living.

    You spoiled them. Now you will tell them that party is over and it is the highest time carries stopped screwing brokers and shippers like that. Give them a little reality humility lesson now.

    Lol believe it or not, My guys were screwed the past 2 years. The rates were terrible 18-pre covid. I’m glad we got to milk the #### out of customers and brokers. Feels good!

    What would you pay a person to do invoices, and pull permits, I do mostly OD loads. And help look for some loadboard freight. I was thinking 5% of every load? Sound fair?

    Some people do what you are entertaining. After a while they hire other people and train them building their business. You can do this anywhere. Where are you located? You will build relationships just like anything else. There is a guy that comes on the forum been doing this for decades.

    So funny how people are brainwashed to think they are screwing or getting 1 over on some #### stain broker when they get a rate they should be getting almost all the time on a few loads. Such a ### backwards business I swear.
