My Close buddy of 35 years owns his own brokerage, mostly open deck in the Midwest.
He has 3 employees, Plus his wife doing the accounting, Which there is a Ton of.
He makes a darn good living but you couldn't give me that job.
He is one of the hardest working guys out there and there is still not enough hours in the day and you better never turn that phone off.
10_15% is average and he earns every dime of it.
How do brokers justify 30-50 % percentage

Some of the comments in this thread are adorable.
I think it was one of the Marvel movies that had a line along the lines of "Advanced technology would seem like magic to a simpler civilization", and this thread makes me think of that.
A broker makes a pretty routine prediction on what the truckload market will do(which like any major market, is cyclical in nature), and someone comes running here to post "HAI GUYS THIS BROKER PREDICTED THE MARKET WOULD GO DOWN, DO U THINK HE IS A WIZARD???"Last edited: Mar 15, 2021

It's to maximize their own revenue (not yours) by securing the highest rate possible from the shipper and the lowest rate possible from the carrier.D.Tibbitt, jbatmick, 86scotty and 1 other person Thank this.
