    may even contact another broker outfit, and see about becoming an affiliate agent of theirs, dealing with their loads.

    May I ask, how many calls have you made in those 5 months? I was listening to one broker who said he made 2,400 cold calls before he landed his first consistent client. That’s a lot of rejection to push through. I wish you luck. I may be on the same journey soon.

    I'm in the same boat Lizx3. About 4 months now and 1 load so far. I've been able to land several customers in lumber and air cargo but they only send out emails for same day shipments with 4 and 5 hour windows!? Loads they couldn't get taken care of. It's going to take time so hang in there, it will get better.

    @Lizx3 @EKL How's it going? I understand it's a tough market now. I'm about to start pounding the phones myself. I wish you all much success.
