You first will send your set up package to shippers before you begin working with them. Once sent, you are ready to rock and roll. In the beginning, you will be doing the calling as you seek loads. After you have worked with shippers and have gained their confidence, they will start calling you. It's nice.
Here is a question that frequently arises: if you take an order from the shipper, are you promising to find a truck? What are you obligating yourself for?
The answer is, No, there will be times when you are unable to find a truck. In fact, for some brokers, finding trucks is more difficult than finding loads. Nevertheless, you do what you can do and what you can't do you don't fret about except - you continuously build your database of carriers as well as shippers.
In our training, we hit em both - finding good paying loads and then finding good, reliable carriers. It is both an art and a science and we will show you how.
