I currently have a full time job, but am wanting to become self employed. I hate being dependent on others for the opportunity to earn; at any point in time, I can be fired, laid off, etc. I want to be independent in that regard.
I have a background in logistics, which I would like to put to use.
In the past, I considered starting a trucking business, but was turned away by how asset heavy that kind of operation is, along with how heavy the monthly operating costs would be too. In other words, the profit margin that I projected, wasn't generous enough for me to be comfortable with.
In the past, I also considered starting a full service dispatching service for Truckers. But, after hearing input from actual Owner Operators, I determined that the market just wasn't really there.
The only possibility left, that I can think of, is a freight brokerage.
To all the Freight Brokers out there, what are the typical monthly operating costs for a freight brokerage? If you would, please itemize, by type along with amount.

Quit griping and help the guy out. A list of your best customers and what you charge should be enough.
And let him in your office so he can job shadow you for a month or so.
God prefers Diesels, Crude Truckin', Rideandrepair and 8 others Thank this. -
