Hi guys, thanks for answering my question last week. Made my day, haha. I had a question re: the discussion about frozen reefer LTLs. If I used one of those brokerages to help me move a frozen LTL, is that considered co-brokering/double brokering? Do I have to tell my customer that I'd be using another broker? How would this work liability/claim-wise? Thanks!
@Freight360
@Freight360 2 күн бұрын
It would be co brokering since they’ll be a co brokerage agreement in place. You can find a sample agreement on our website. The claims are handled by them if one occurs. You’ll just facilitate information between this brokerage and your shipper.

I’m impressed by those who can do this job. ! I’m going to be tuning in to your podcasts as you guys seem to have valuable insight.

Ben, I apparently did this technique and was following up on either the quotes I had provided them or the orders they told me that are lined up but I got feedback saying that I am being an aggressive salesperson and I should wait until they actually need me. But here’s the contradiction, if I slow down then they might forget me and keep running operations as it is. Still kinda figuring out the safe zone to play with.

Have been building my credit over the past 6 months. Definitely had to offer quickpay, even Zelle and Cashapp at times. What really helped me was doing LTL and getting accounts with companies like ABF, XPO, and RoadRunner because they report it to Ansonia. I officially show up as 95 CS and 15 DP on DAT!

How to find reefer LTL carriers that can haul frozen commodities? I tried to source through google and I did find out some but then they don’t do long hauls or service particular regions. Reefer LTL shipments are very tough to cover in comparison to dry LTL shipments since you can get instant quotes and capacity through platforms like beyon or mothership. I know you guys can suggest something good.

Trucks breakdown and last-minute loads need recovered. The best approach to these objections is to ask them how they handle when one of their trucks breaks down or doesn't show and that load needs to go.

Hey guys, big fan here. Had a question for your next Final Mile. I have a shipper who has a LTL shipment valued at $90k that they are asking me to quote. The shipping coordinator says that he never pays for full additional insurance to cover the full value of the load - my question is this: if I choose not to get full insurance (which is the only way I can give him a competitive rate to what he currently gets by finding them himself) and something happens to the load, am I the one who is financially on the hook? Also, I was considering drawing up a contract saying that the shipper formally waives us of responsibility, do you think this would be enough protection? Please advise.
@Freight360
@Freight360 17 күн бұрын
We’ll answer in length in an upcoming Final Mile. Short answer, yes have them confirm the load value and the amount they want to insure. That will cover you. And if something happens, they’ll only recover that amount.

The DAT podcasts and shows are pretty good for technical discussions. Chris Caplice, Dean Croke, Ken Adamo are all great people to read and follow. Along with Jason Miller. I don’t have any books I’ve come across that have been very good on the subject. Most of the academic literature doesn’t translate well to practical uses. If you come across any, please share with us. I’ll start recommending more books. Here’s a few others: the lost art of listening, Influence- Robert Caildini, How Emotions are Made.

That’s a lie. When carrier accepts freight he temporarily take custody via bol till receiver signs for it. If broker cannot pay you impound the shipment and try to agree on rate. After 30 days you send a demand for payment. If broker don’t pay then sell it.
