Thank you so much for this information! No fast talking!!! Straight to the point, No confusion! My Husband is A driver, and he told me, he didn't NEED A DISPATCHER, He can book his own loads!!! I was like, oh ok, and it discouraged me from wanting to become a dispatcher. I want to train properly and get a certificate, just to have the credentials. You on the other hand Nail this Video, and has given me some hope in myself, and prove to My Husband if he doesn't want me, someone else will. 😂
I just did a search 'truck dispatching business' cause around this time last year there were soo many videos about being able to generate at least $5K dispatching. Now it shows videos from last year nothing recent. I'm bringing that up to mention the people who promoted truck dispatching last year are the ones who got rich quick from us taking their course. Like you mentioned the courses aren't really beneficial and they leave a lot out. I'm just glad I kept my job, or I would have been in trouble. It's hard to really make it you'll need at least 3 - 5 drivers to dispatch. The drivers have to be reliable and serious about work. My experience trying to do this as a business was tough and stressful. I feel it's more like a stressful side hustle than a ceo running a business for a few hours. It's very time consuming to do this. good luck to anyone still considering it just research the load boards. I'll still do it as a hustle I guess $150 here/there can help. That's what I generated nothing close to $5k not even $2K.
Jessica what course did you take and how long did you do dispatching. I would like more info. I am looking researching this now. I ready to jump on board but I was thinking it was too late. Let me know. Thank you
Im also ready to make the plunge into the industry. I live outside the abroad but frequent the US as I have close family. I want to enrol on a course with mentorship to see me through.
Took the “boss” class with your videos. I am very proud to say I have completed the course and very satisfied with the course. I am currently waiting to get my LLC and start working in the field.
I just turned 20 years old and am going to start dispatching next month . I have a few more questions but dont want to take up to much time lol . Thanks for the videos. Best trucking channel on RU-vid
Wow, this channel should have much more subscribers. So many useful information for beginners and a few comments only. Could you please advise how many percents do you usually charge for dispatch services? Have you ever tried to provide a brokerage services or only double-brokerage 😉?
Hello thank you for the kind words. As far as my percentage charge, it depends on a lot of factors. What kind of equipment you are running, how many trucks you have and how are the markets doing. I tried brokerage but I didn't have time to take it to the next level.
it's very understandable straight to the point, how can I get in contact with the drivers ?, and how can I start from the bottom, I finished truck dispatch training but they didn't help me to get the drivers.
Awesome content. Your video was very informational. I'm an owner operator, my brother and i started our own trucking business. We hit our 6 months authority in January. I want to dispact for myself. This was great and helped a lot. Thank you. Is it possible to drive and dispatch your own loads
@@NeverStopTRK Okay cool! That's very reassuring and I'm looking forward to the learning process. Sometimes in life we can only depend on ourselves. 🙏🏽
Thank you Enis for what you doing! Its huge! Right now I wont to start my company. Maybe you know where I can buy already existing company and change the owner?
Thank you very much for your videos. I have been watching them since yesterday and I appreciate your honesty and showing a real person not a fake act. I have been looking through the websites you mention like FMCSA and found the registry of O/O. I found one O/O and looked at his or her license and insurance and it says they do not have bond. Is that something to look out for? They have BIPD at 750k but no cargo or bond insurance..
Thank you so much for always sharing your wealth of knowledge. If I’m doing a trip/route planning and I book a load that’s a 2,000 mile pick-up, how will I know before I attempt to book the load how many days or how long it will take my driver to get there?
You are welcome! Rule of thumb is 500-600 miles a day. So, if the driver has fresh hours for the day of the pickup, it will take him 3 days and 3 hours. Keep in mind that you have to include potential deadhead miles into this calculation and any hours already used for the day of the pick up.
I'm working as a freight dispatcher I'm cold calling truck drivers and telling them that we got high paying loads. I can't find a video related to me, which can help me most of your videos are about the dispatchers who are responsible for tracking the trucks. please tell me where to start
Im not scared to cold call carriers i just dont really know what to say . Do you have a script ? also what are the most common carrier objections & how to answer them ?
I don't have scripts and honestly I hate them lol. They make you sound unnatural. Just be yourself and tell them about you and offer them your services.
Thanks for a answering my questions . Which equipment type do you recommend me start with a dry van or flat bed . Also which one pays more . ( Im going to start in the midwest market & south . Illinois & texas to be exact)
Thank you very much! Useful information!! I have 2 questions^ 1. Which persent could expect/take dispatcher who just start his own career? 2. Is Michigan is better than all? Everyone propose Delawere, but when i reserch turn out that there are 300 anualy fee. So i think about Wyoming, where is 100 1st payment and 60 anual. Now, after yours video, may be Michigan?)
Hello, 1. Anywhere between 5% and 8% 2. Michigan will not let you register an LLC without having a residency. Your best bet would be Wyoming or Delaware. Thanks for watching
Hi Enis, I'm from Serbia, but not sure whether I should write to you in our language or English, so I'm going to continue in English. Are steps for opening dispatch company in USA to work from abroad remotely, exactly from Serbia, should I also register company in Serbia or only LLC in US?
It's really up to you and your local laws there. I imagine it's same as in Bosnia as far as opening your own company goes. That means a lot of paperwork and money, a lot of taxes and a lot of people you have to "know" to help you out with that. I don't think it's worth it when you are a one man operation if you know what I mean ;)
@@stefanunkovic4595 You'll open a nonresident LLC in the US. You'll find law firms online which will take care of all what you'll need besides opening one. You'll need a US calling number which you can acquire by Skype call subscription or TextNow... There are other ways too to get a US number.
I am from India I have started working for new zealand based trucking company I'm on training period like how to bookings read email create jobs sir how to learn quickly
Hi I have been watching your almost all the vedios, which are really really helpful. Just a quick question- can i use owner operator LLC credentials? Or i need to have a separate LLC as dispatcher? Thanks alot in advance brother ❤
How can I know how much the rate is in today times? And how much % can I charge from the clients? (I’m new in this field and I’m hoping to jump in in this field)
I work for a carrier. Kinda in the opposite side of this. But i take care of roadside. This is a fleet of 110 trucks and dispatch loads to 20 trucks during the day. Its only me. Im a 24/7 employee. Wondering what kind of pay i should be asking for. ?
Question: what do you recommend for someone like me looking for loads with no cdl with a truck and a trailer 4x10 trailer. Im currently looking online for a dispatcher who can find loads but im havjng a hard time even locating that.
Most dispatchers won't touch it because they know it will be really tough to cover you. I wish I could give you more advice but I have no experience in your field.
Cześć! Thanks for your video! I am from Ukraine, last year I came to Canada under the CUAET program. In Ukraine, I had the same business for more than 10 years. Now I am working on my English and I want to start my own business. What can you advise about Canada? Maybe some features? What courses are better to teach? Dziękuję.
Hello boss !! Could i get my LLC and do dispatch even if Im in Mexico, I have lil experience by helping my friend dispatch and call brokers for DAT but I want to make this a career but IM confued weather I can do this from my home country by getting my own access and my own company as a dispatcher, could you please help me, and thanks alot
I also watched your video about bad & good areas to send your trucks to but that was a year ago is it still the same ? Also can you go more in depth about the best time of year for certain equipment times . Like Dry van , flatbed & refers
OK, I could make a video like that. That video will always be about 80% on the point. Van market areas usually stay the same all year around except when seasonal freight starts changing. Think Christmas trees, nursery, produce that can go on vans or when we have auto industry regular shutdowns, etc
