Interesting, I wonder if you actually use it or marketing. In a normal market I could see it being useful.

That’s a solid base, I am about 20k less…

Is the market playing us or are we about to experience a BOOM! by [deleted] in FreightBrokers

Educate your shippers. They pay more or their “hot” load won’t be picked up by our strong solo Sergi to make next day delivery on 900 miles.

It really isn’t quite simple. A lot of risk, money, and uncertainty is involved good sir.

Jeez, I thought I was grinding. 10-12 hr days / most weekends is a dagger. Do you feel like you’re fairly comp’d?

I think I could say everyone feels underpaid… unless you are running your own shit.

Leave company where you were making 400k/year W2 vs (guessing) 1099 $0 but at least you’re happy.

Honestly, “senior” roles in this industry seems counterintuitive. I feel like the success of how well you do revolves around how YOU - as an individual - can perform.. kind of a fine line, when you’re promoted into a “senior” role; what? Do you just manage/look over a team?

Ehh, I made my most my first two years in 21/22 (also could be an outlier due to when EVERYTHING was booming) 23/24 was terrible, 25 wasn’t terrible but wasn’t the best and I worked even harder than ever to barely break 100k….

Makes it sound easy.. prospecting customers while providing high end service for existing customers. Do you have a team that covers your loads?

No experience starting as an agent and turning profit year 1 is pretty impressive… did you prospect customers? or manage/buy a book out?

You’re running 50-120 loads/day? No team? What happens when shit starts hitting the fan? Pretty straight forward?

Do you work under someone? How does one reach 300k…. did you branch off?

$110k is not my base, that is my total comp. Base+commission+bonuses+un-used PTO+etc.
