This has become a big business lately. Guys are dispatching for multiple owner operators on a daily basis for a percentage of each load. If you can find 8-10 trucks to load on the daily, you can make a pretty decent living at it and also get enough money to keep the OO's very happy.

To slowdog..... Freight brokering is not for everyone. From the looks of your post, you have been a driver for a very long time. It is not scientific by any means, but it does take a certain knack to gain customers and find good freight. You also have to have a good reliable carrier base to cover your freight. Not all brokers are scum....Not all freight that is brokered is cheap by any means, you just have to know the good freight from the bad and what lanes cost what amount, etc.... You probably could have used some training before you jumped right into the brokering business.

Slowdog, you might want to try being an independent driver recruiter. It's just a bit less slimy than a broker and you can help some guys and gals in need.
