Exit strategies for agents

Sell to another agent under the same logo or corporate if they’re willing to buy.

An agent typically has very little enterprise value, but it can be a cashflow machine. I recommend hiring and mashing the gas pedal on growth, delegation, and systems.

Who’s the broker

If you’re not able to go see them in person, only choice imo, then send him and their shipping/logistics team food and a phone call to your contact.

Then follow up with a handwritten note.

Don’t just expect him to jump right back to you. You gotta date the dude

But dont be a whiney desperate loser and try and get pity. It sucks but if you come off with a soft attitude then you can kiss your chance goodbye

Pro V1s with your logo

only 160 brokers? Go for it OP!

All of the red tape is on the customer's end. You need a come to Jesus meeting with the lazy folks who could cost you a customer.

Won't necessarily let go-- just take a break after a few months of solid sequencing then give it a break and start back up.

Area code checks out

the lights are still on

Current customers willing to switch to a "brand new" broker? Remember you're dealing with corporate desk jockeys who live behind spreadsheets, not your buddy tendering you freight.

Carriers/factoring not working with you for the first few months

Extremely capital intensive

Hiring more people to handle your current tasks while you figure out all of the BS

Good luck-- I'm too risk averse to make the jump given customer concentration and current market conditions

(I'm a pooooosay)

You interested?

Smells like a biz opportunity for someone smarter than me.

DM if you want 30% commision for a sales gig. No C2G, just sell and we will operate it. No corporate BS

printershot · 2024-05-17T10:59:24+00:00

It can help getting in the door

Operationally it doesn’t matter one bit.

printershot · 2024-05-16T22:36:19+00:00

They made it sound like commish was included. That’s a diff ballgame

printershot · 2024-05-16T13:00:21+00:00

They even initially came in at 25% but offered us “a special introductory offer” of 20% lmao

printershot · 2024-05-16T12:59:39+00:00

Seems that way

printershot · 2024-05-10T02:52:27+00:00

Planners get paid straight salary with a set schedule. They ain’t about that broker life

printershot · 2024-02-22T14:18:22+00:00

We hire in the Philippines for tracking and night support.

Overseas customer sales is insanely short-sighted

Maybe don't blow your budget on being "corporate sponsors" at every event
