As a brand new carrier who just received MC Authority or planning to do so, it is very important to ensure that your truck or trucks are running consistently generating revenue every day for you and your business. However, as you may have already discovered many dispatch firms will only work with carriers who have been in business for at least 6 months or more. There is a logical explanation for this. You see, there are a lot of brokers who will not take a chance by booking a load with a newly registered carrier and risking potential cargo loss or damage. Therefore they will prefer a carrier who managed to stay in business for some time and present a lower risk. For a dispatch firm, this translates into more work trying to find brokers who will work with a newly registered carrier. Here at Sam K Logistics we believe that everyone has to start somewhere! We have relationships with many brokers willing to work with freshly established transportation companies and we are eager to service new carriers even though it may require additional effort on our part for the first 6 months or so. In return, we usually get a fully “accredited” client who will continue doing business with us in the future! Also during your first year, we will guide and assist you in a form of consulting.
If you are new to this business you probably have a lot of questions and you probably come to the realization that you will encounter unforeseen challenges related to the operation of your business. With our experience in transportation, we will not only take care of booking your freight but will also share our opinion related to issues and problems you may encounter. As long you remain our client Consulting is totally free to you.
