Help needed setting up a Hot Shot business

My plan initially was to get orders through load boards or via a dispatcher. Over time, I would then build up more on my own.

fight tooth and nail for the freight that is high input/low revenue obtained from a medium that strives to make it's profit from moving freight cheaper than the lowball number they gave the shipper does not allow the ability to build up more business.

in fact it won't make up the cost of getting into business let alone establish the cash flow to stay in business.

 

Do you have any tips on how I could get started then?

 

I hope you don't plan to move forward with that plan now. Your competition hauls for such low rates it would make your head spin.

 

Are you not reading what we are writing?

Do NOT get started at all unless you have contracted customers or a very niche freight/service.

 

Yes, I've been researching for weeks, and I've heard more bad than good about the industry. Especially since I have no experience in this field in the USA. Our dream is to immigrate to the USA, which requires one to become self-employed.

 

Of course, I'm reading; I'm just trying to gather more information. Everyone has differing opinions on everything.

 

You keep asking the same question. We've already answered it many times.

 

okay
