    As a dispatcher, am working with mostly new MC nowadays. What I recommend is doing OTR, in a week you can make $50000 and more doing OTR. If you are paying dispatcher a fee that's for giving you a load and not wasting your day. If somebody is failing that thing you should consider another dispatch company. For me I see Box Truck as a golden opportunity. You will not see rate differences in 53ft Van with a box truck, it's barely a difference now.

    I'm having trouble booking loads with these brokers who don't want to work with new mcs. I'm not new. I've had my company since 2021 but reactivated my authority in August. Brokers are using this against me of course. Anyone willing to let my company run loads under your mc for a fee?

    Question big Vic! If I’m talking to the broker directly, what percentage are they making off the load, might be a hard question to answer.

    • @BiggVic
      @BiggVic  3 місяці тому

      There is no way to figure that out unless you are talking directly to the shipper. Just make sure your numbers make sense before you book the load.

    • @dennismisovski9932
      @dennismisovski9932 3 місяці тому

      Well…I’m just asking cause I booked a load through arcbest/panther load board for 240 miles for $250, I have a sprinter van. I asked the shipper and he said he paid $290 all together, so I take it the broker made $50 off the deal. You think that accurate?

    • @BiggVic
      @BiggVic  3 місяці тому +1

      The best insurance companies won’t insure a new authority that is why progressive has the market in a choke hold because they’ll insure almost everyone at a hefty premium. I’m still negotiating with companies that can actually help new carriers ✌🏾

Someone told me this, I was planning on starting out this way, with the 1 day cab I have and hire a driver for each shift just for consistent income until our Authority seasons more to develop more relationships. Could you give me some other options of where I can lease onto an ltl company that will keep my truck moving, any option for an Authority that's 6months old? I really can use some help

    This business will burn your cash fast and loads are paying. Truck cost, insurance cost, dispatcher or onboarding, factoring, fuel, eld, etc… all these entities will eat off your limited plate and your making little in return. You can luck up and find loads that pay OTR, just understand profit margins are not what you think, at least the first 6 months in your authority

      Yes, because I did. My husband was already on his job as an employee though. He just switched to a contract driver and all that was required was a dot. This was years ago. Knowing what I know now, I definitely would’ve gotten the MC number because we had to have insurance to start up anyway. We paid a third party to set up our dot which is free. I could’ve used that for our authority. We just didn’t know better at the time.
