    Just opened and started operating my brokerage. I have over 6+ years in the transportation industry from a trucking company point of view. Excited to embark on this new journey from the other side of the phone. What should I expect and do you all have any tips for success down the road?

    1. Be honest with drivers! Same as you would want others be honest with you.
    2. Don't screw over drivers. Pay them like you would want to be paid.
    Actually, just boils down to the Golden rule, treat others the way you would want to be treated!
    Best of luck in your new adventure! I hope it is successful!
     
    AF1 Thanks this.

    Pay freight bill on time. 30 day terms means 30, not 31.
