That was great information, as an owner operator. I was definitely working my way towards this. Definitely have to get other people out of your pocket the way how things are going.
"Not the smartest or most talented." Hmmm..? I admire your modesty and humbleness but I sincerely believe you are one of the best, if not THE BEST, source of up-to-date data regarding the trucking industry available on any media outlet, IMHO. You (specialize) and present trucking industry data like nobody else does and it's very valuable and appreciated information that can't be found, as you present it, anywhere else. You are very much like a news channel for (trucking industry data) which I don't think even exist besides you. In short, you are very good at what you do and obviously appreciated and respected by all your viewers for the content you provide. Not into stroking egos but will give credit where credit is due. Keep up the good work!
You just saved me tons of time & headaches with this info ! Although it will upgrade my plans,I hope it works even better for you. You deserve it with all of the info you share... FOR FREE !!!! On your way to 100,000 subs plus.
Hey Miranda, I really appreciate all the info, but the shipper ussually don't wanna work with the small owner operator companies, can you make a video on how to deal with them and convince them to give us direct load??
They’re doing you a favor as you don’t have the proper insurance, bonds, or capital to cover your buttocks in an event that the freight is compromised. That’s where brokers come in. You wouldn’t want these shippers coming for your neck. You wouldn’t go to court without a lawyer or drive your car without insurance coverage would you ?
to be honest , i got a crush on this lady ,if it wasn't for this channel i don't think i would of open a trucking company, this my school , when i get right, i'm paying my tuition, lol... always good info.. keep it up BEST TRUCKING CHANNEL ON UA-cam... 5 STARS
Thanks for sharing Miranda. Unfortunately, 98% of viewers will realize that they are unable to work with worthy direct shippers due to several barriers: (1) age (2) capacity (3) insurance requirements(4) at least 30 Days non-factorable payment periods (5) different load systems/practices
Yes unfortunately direct customers definitely come with tons of responsibilities, a one man show it’s very far fetched when product needs to be moved it has to move, you’d more than likely need an small network of trailers and multiple drivers day/night and on call so that hrs of service won’t be a factor
I disagree. Most medium to small shippers pay weekly. At least from my experience pulling flatbed. Some even pay the day load delivered. Scott’s for example. Some even offer quick pay for 2% to 5% off invoice. Van, yes harder to get direct shippers but you can. You have to sell yourself and your service. Some won’t work with new carriers but a lot will. Find the lanes you want to run, the products you are most comfortable hauling and cold call or stop in. Be surprised what can be achieved.
@@RH-zg9tx Hey, thanks for value adding comment! Yah, I am working on direct shipping obtainment and shared my recent experience. Biggest challenge to me as of now is the lack of time due to driving. However, first results already there. Next week taking 4 days home to work on new direct shipping development.
If the shipper is on the load board chances are they are cheap. Now everyone will click her link to sign up for DAT for something that’s been there for ages and go after the same shippers that are not onboarding carriers right now. She in return will get paid for her referral link being used. Y’all have to wake up or get out the industry because you are killing it.. lack of knowledge
You found a great way as well for freight brokers to connect with shippers! Unless I didn’t understand this properly on “direct shippers” only work with carriers and dodge brokers…
Wonderful video. Thanks for sharing this cause I definitely ignored that thing on DAT. Great to see you studied psychology at university and yeah abnormal psychology especially DSM turns you into a brilliant researcher. I studied Psychology as well and it helped in this industry.
I could kiss you. I've been searching for years and could only come back to CH Robinson having their hand in most contracted lanes or just a dead end. Thank you so much
Not a bad idea but a good shipper that has loads with good rates and pays in 30 days doesnt need DAT. Probably a shipping manager that was a broker in a previous job might use this for ugly commodities. Good luck tho
im curious when drivers go to google to look for loads what search queries do you use in google? Do you just put in "load board" or "trucker load board" or something completely different?
The water truck load, Chicago to Vermont, paid $2350. Using their info., that comes to $2.492 per mile. I guess that beats $1.50 pm! Whata you think? Would you ask for more?
DAT shippers directory isn’t new… all of those shippers have been beat to death they have more than enough capacity bc they are on the load board. Nothing special there save your money
"Direct shippers ", their authority, what kinds of authority do they have? You know, for us carriers there is common carrier, contract carrier, there is broker authority. But for a direct shipper, what are they?
@@TruckingMadeSuccessful Noted. First, thank you very much for this tip, and all of the useful information you put out! Yes, I started playing with this. The few companies, Shippers I looked up they have no authority. Correct me if I am wrong, what you are suggesting here with this directory, this information, is to use it, study it, to prepare a sales campaign if you will, based on the lanes you need to cover, correct? Is this how you use it, would use it? I think it is important to denote, learn about this shippers. If they are not a broker, it would not have a broker bond we can claim against in the event. If they are in DAT, can we assume, they utilize DAT in a certain capacity, and for that they would be very concern about the reputation they built here. I do not want to take this out of context, I guess I need to play more with it. I am just trying to learn how to best use it, if any body is more savvier with it, out there, I will take anything. Definitely, a powerful sales tool!
I wish I knew this before to avoid brokers. Thanks. I got my truck parked now, got all my endorsements and was thinking of becoming a contractor running hazmat for another carrier with its authority outside of California. Anyone knows any good info in regards to hazmat tankers. Is it even worth it?
Being a dispatcher can we directly take loads from the shippers to our carriers??? Is that possible?? If yes then how? Can you please make a video on that like all the steps, starting how to book a load how to talk what to say a shipper, ?
Protect this woman at all costs!
I am we got married 🎉
They are going to go at her pretty soon if they haven’t already she’s not safe
@@Flokiboysstop it!!!! That’s my girl😂😂😂
Facts
Fighting for her to the death. 🖤
That was great information, as an owner operator. I was definitely working my way towards this. Definitely have to get other people out of your pocket the way how things are going.
Can you do a video on how you deal with the paperwork? Your filling system, what do you keep, what do you trash? Like BOLs or anything?
Keep Everything. Wether it’s for a safety audit or business audit. Just keep a binder with all BOLs and receipts.

You are a real Gem of the Dispatching field.

I beg to defer. You’re a professor of the transportation industry. I am personally learning a lot from you. Thank you.
Exactly! It's all about knowing how and where to look.
There is enough out her for the good people. She is doing a great job because she trying to teach
I want to thank you . I’ve been following you for three weeks and you provide the relevant information that we need. Incredibly grateful . 🎉
🙏🏽
Hey Miranda, I really appreciate all the info, but the shipper ussually don't wanna work with the small owner operator companies, can you make a video on how to deal with them and convince them to give us direct load??
She could not find one. 😅

You wouldn’t want these shippers coming for your neck. You wouldn’t go to court without a lawyer or drive your car without insurance coverage would you ?
The ability to research and question everything: invaluable.

You're right It's hard, the biggest issue It's the capacity I think, 1 truck and trailer won't cut it most of the time

I love working. Gotta enjoy getting up 5am and working till midnight. Pay now play later! Great video 📹
Thank you, very valuable!
All these extra working hours, it is hard to slip in the research, you are awesome ❣️
That was great news for us as owner operators and bad for bad for brokers. Thank you for your information
As a broker this is good for us too gonna use this method. Most shippers don’t want to work with direct carriers and prefer to work with a broker.
🧐 Miranda....you are the best at what you do 💪 nothing but Gratitude. 🌹for all your hard work. I'm loving it
Me too!! I can find all kinds of info online!! (And enjoy doing it!! 🤣🤣)

Awesome information. Hope you got rest! Thank you again!!!
Good job 😊keep it up the good work .
Thank you so much for sharing this valuable information. , and I don't think you could ever look bad.
This could work if you get the shippers to sign up and use LaneAxis as a block chain platform - payment and contract can go through them
Thank you so much for this great information. I am fist time follow with small business.
Great research good information enjoy watching your channel very educational
Woow this is very appreciated, thank you 😊 🙏
Hello from N.Carolina Miranda.
Mc Rae’s is really great but that dat trick is huge for brokers thank you
Not a bad idea but a good shipper that has loads with good rates and pays in 30 days doesnt need DAT. Probably a shipping manager that was a broker in a previous job might use this for ugly commodities. Good luck tho

Readyy? Let’s gooo
Please 🙏 make a video how to research.
Can you do that first method with Internet Truckstop load board as well?
Great video

I’m looking for owner operators (semi) or CDL Drivers. They would be able to run under our authority. How do I go about that?
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!
Thank you! 🙏🏼
