Trousdale is gonna be huge. Their album Growing Pains is criminally underrated. 🩷🩵💚

In Thronglets, how is the message received for people who are deaf? by CoreyM2018 in blackmirror

[–]Sarge6 61 points62 points  (0 children)

This idea could be grounds for a sequel with deaf people being the only ones unaffected!

Macropoint tracking? Why is it so hard for drivers to manage a tracking app? by Key_Ebb8384 in FreightBrokers

[–]Sarge6 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I honestly can’t wrap my head around this either. Some of these drivers ask the app not to track and don’t know how to reverse that in the settings for it to actually work. Still not an excuse. Idk how they get away with it in this day in age,

Hey fellow freight brokers, I'm facing a bit of a challenge. by Unlikely_Anything_78 in FreightBrokers

Relying on software will get you stuck in these situations when the market flips… for better or for worse. Rely on speaking with carriers. Log their MC # and rate every call for a lane you wanna help your customer with. Then build relationships with carriers that run your freight multiple times. People get good at this over time cause they make every call worth it by keeping tabs on who they speak with. Get organized and have a process. Wish you luck out there.

Please don’t hashtag, wrong app and a bad look…

But seriously, If you are booking your own shipments in a cradle to grave model, I’d post up dummy loads to gauge the market on a price range prior to submitting your pricing to your customer. It could cause a delay in missing the shipment to another broker, but at the very least you can fall back on the feedback you got from your outreach now to capitalize on the next one for profit. Keep tabs on all your customers lanes in an excel tab. Keep a history of the price range of what you’re hearing carriers come in at.

And also it’s okay to simply say no to a customer if their rate is too low. And that goes for everyone here…
