See you at the top because the bottom is much too crowded!
Great advice, and spot on! I opened my first freight brokerage almost 12 years ago and am grateful to have had good guidance and advice. I'll add that I also met with my Small Business Administration's representative before I discussed anything with my CPA or my attorney. I made the migration to broker from a 15 year career as a Landstar agent. One of the best decisions I've ever made. Thank you for helping others understand the importance of laying a good foundation (personal credit is KEY!)
thank you for your perspective Martha! much appreciated!
I have the capital and got my education to be a licensed broker from Calstate where did you find your guidance/ counselors / etc?
I wouldn’t say a $3,000 bond is bad. I pay $815 quarterly for my BMC-84, because yes my credit is not great, but I easily make that quarterly. Hell, I can make that in one day.
Hey MR. Weight I’m a truck driver looking to get into the brokerage Buisness, any advice?
@@adonijahtaylor547 every goods based business is a potential client, cold calling is a necessary evil…it helps if you research the company, and make sure you’re an upstanding businessman who understands communicating the good and bad goes a long way. LLC, BMC-84, and then cold calling or warm calling if you already know someone.
Just as a heads up, listening to this channel, I now pay $1500 for my bond. Prestige International in Florida, and I now have 300K contingent cargo insurance for $800, which allowed me to become a FEMA approved transportation provider. Again, Prestige International...ask for Jimmy.
@@leejr9999 Thanks for the knowledge
I really needed this today. I've been teetering for years. Thank you for this.
Yes!Thanks!😃
Damn! Love how You kept it real with saving money versus getting a loan! Thanks for sharing this golden nugget with us!
Thanks Brandon! I’ve been following you for a while now... I went through your surety bond company rep and paid for my bond yesterday.
Great Video 👌💯
Thank you
Good info
I LOVE THE PIC WITH THE FISH
Go head man I hear you
imma sub to you brotha- keep the knowledge coming
Thanks for your efforts and great in explaining things , hopefully see a video about how book a load and what broker requires from carrier ( documents) and what shipper requires from broker . Thanks
Thank you Brandon. Your knowledge of the freight broker business is very informative and helpful.
kind of you to say Thomas! glad you find the content helpful! peace and prosperity!
Thanks for the video man! Going to start my training program soon
thank you Anatoliy!
This very informative and challenging but I am going to seek out the what if ..... answer that question for myself
Good content! What is a more potentially profitable venture. Starting a hotshot owner operator, or starting a freight brokerage?
My favorite thing and the main thing I like is don’t borrow money!!! And read books! Great video very appreciated
All the Love and support from Egypt, I've learned a lot from u and I'm ready to hit the ground to my brograge Career. Thank you very much
thank you Motasim Explorer!!
Glad you touched on the Credit aspect. What about two owners? Would both need good credit or could one foot the credit requirements?
from what I know 1 and the other can work on it while it gets going . team work
I love that you throw out there that getting a loan as a Freight Broker is not needed. I heard you say that 3 years ago an I took your advice. I stashed an saved an waited. I have been building Dee Dee Logistics LLC for 2 1/2 years an did NOT need a loan to do it. I am at the point where I'm ready to move loads an awaiting the FMCSA to authorize me. That is great advice. I knew if I did that I would instantly be in the hole an that's not a good look. Thank you for posting these videos for us 😁
I'm so happy to hear you did it without DEBT!! good stuff Debra!!
Was there a probation period
Looking to start I just have a couple questions would you be willing to talk for about 10 mins tops?? Please?? Thank you great video!!!
Question, will the bonding agent take in consideration of using your business credit vs. personal credit or is personal credit the norm?
Facts!! This man told the truth, the whole truth, & nothing but the truth. You might need to start as a Freight agent on his platform while developing your skills and getting extra support before you become a broker.
does he offer being an agent?
@@Austintwo3 I don’t think he has an agent option at the moment.
@@herbertgipson447 dang lol
is it better to open the broker business as a corporation ?
On becoming a freight agent. Would my credit have to be in the high 600s?
So do have course I can learn from or can you mentor me?
I have questions
I want to switch careers and start my freight broker business . Did you have to get formal training I.e certification, diploma … thanks
😮 I need a new lapto and smart phone as well 😅
I started a box truck business Kingdom Driven LLC, things slowed down and I went from 4 trucks to 1 truck, had to deactivate my MC because couldn't afford to keep paying insurance. Still have the connects, but no trucks to run, so looking to get in on the brokerage side? Any advice?
Do I have to start a business is it feasible to work for a firm until I'm ready to start a business?
How can I get in touch with you?
So i have a Trucking company 1year already I Dispatch myself already have a factoring company wich im sure they will help with starting a new LLC and company. Now where do i start finding direct loads?
Hit the phones bro that’s the only way
Call me, I have a Freight Logistics Company. Where are you located?
Can u give me any info on how can I find a mentor in my state on freight broker. I just finished with a course online. I know I have to do some training but I’m a hands on person but I don’t have the funds right now for train. What info you can give me to start.
Did you find out how to find a mentor in your area?
I have my owner operator authority. But now I'm starting a freight broker company. Do I need to get. Another dot number with my freight broker authority
a trucking company can have dual authority...or get a separate broker authority.....advantages and disadvantages either way...would advise talking with truckers with dual athority..
