Great video, full of valuable information from start to finish! (apart from the sports part in the beginning lol)

Thanks for enduring the sports banter lol
Excellent video! You guys as brokers go through the same thing as we do as dispatchers, but 10x harder... I respect the grind, keep it going!👌

Thanks for joining us Sorav
I hope I’m spelling this correct but does Sorav work as an agent or does he run his own company? Essentially I’m wondering if he handles the entire load process including the billing and had to build company credit to work with carriers?

He's an agent with Benjamin. So he handles the entire load process. But not the billing or credit. It's plug and play with the brokerage for everything else like TMS, credit and software.

@@Freight360 ahhhh makes sense. Thank you! I jumped out and started a company having no experience with brokering. I was certainly wondering how he was managing all of this simultaneously. I would love some content on how you guys use systems to make your lives easier as far as dispatching loads when you have to cover 3 + by yourself! This might be too in depth though for KZread, not sure 🙇🏽
