I am new in this industry but it sounds interesting and rewarding so I am excited to learn more before I jump into the business. Thank you for sharing and being transparent. I think I can speak for us all: we really appreciate you for taking the time to post these videos for our learning.
Thank you so much Francisco!!! I just got my starter kit and started learning so much with it. Getting everything ready to start. Here in PA is super easy to register your LLC, good luck to everyone who’s getting into this Industry!
Where did you get the starter kit from? I am so confused. I wanted to start dispatching from so long but I don’t to where to start or where can I get the course from. If you can help?
Thank you for sharing what CRM/TMS you use. I just watched the tutorial on connect team. It’s definitely less expensive than 17 hats and some others I’m weighing in on. If you could elaborate on “your” benefits of connect team that would be great. Again thank you. Keep dipping. I didn’t even think about you wolfing on any of your videos. You look like you get a 2 with the grain. That’s content for another day, another channel 😜
How much dispatch equipment do I need if I drive my own box truck and self dispatch. I'm thinking a laptop, a phone, legal pads, maybe a portable printer. Of course, I will buy you course to get the knowledge I need. I'm considering buying both the Box truck course and both dispatch courses. : )
How long have you been running your dispatching/trucking businesses. How is your chart of accounts working for you? Do they allow you to generate good informational reports!? P&L’s😮, Balance sheet, and budget formation, budget vs actual performance?
Honestly, I would say yes, and only because some states take long to send you your Articles of Organization which is what you’ll need to open a business bank account, and that is essential. Some states give you an option to expedite it, but I’d rather be safe and get it.
Hello and thank you for the information. My question is, do you or do you not need to have a DOT/MC to get on the load boards? I'm not hearing anyone speak about that part...
You absolutely can, and I speak about that in another video, but let me give you an example where a scanner/fax will be useful. Sometimes certain brokers require a scanned copy of a BOL vs a photo. In that circumstance the driver would take the BOL, and scan it to you themselves (unless of course they live relatively close to you then they can bring it to you physically). This is just one example. You don’t necessarily need it but as you grow, your use of it will become more necessary.
Hello Francisco, Thank you for your clear explanation and facts? Question: If I work full time, but want to supplement my income, is a freight dispatching business a good option for me. A LLC in California is $800, and not something I can afford at this time. I have an EIN for a craft business, but would I need a separate EIN for this business?
Thank you so much for sharing this information. In one of your previous videos, you said you had one on one training. Is this still available plus can you share your templates
Hi Francisco, thank you so much for this valuable information. I do have a question that may seem silly. Do I need a desktop, or can I have a laptop? I haven't used a desktop in decades, and I can't recall if there are any benefits to using it.
Appreciate your videos! Question: How can you be reached for a 1 on 1 consultation ? Looking to get into the business in the near future. Keep up the good work ! Thank You
i finallly got the llc pa was backed up a month..i got the ein almost paid the 255 for that smh.. now do i have to get business account asap ? cause i know it was saying to get that i need the article of orginization
Hello I work as a dispatcher and load finder on the european market and work from Europe , I work with 30 other dispatchers and some of us want to start doing this , is it possible for you to help with the process and help in finding us work, we will pay you for your expertise and guidance.
No, what i'm saying is what category I want my business to be under far as what industry I want my business to be recognized as a freight dispatcher Do I need to put in Freight broker
As an independent dispatcher, do I need an MC number also to start up my business? Someone help me please. I have the LLC, EIN , and I registered for the MC number but somehow I feel lost concerning this authority thing . please help me throw more light on this whole issue. Am just a beginner who wants to start up something for my self.( independent dispactcher). I will be following in the comments. Thank you.
Besides your TMS, do you still recommend setting up an independent CRM (or a setup in Google Drive for example)or are those TMS platform an all in one platform?
Hey bro I have a question. Can I work from anywhere? I’m considering retiring from trucking after about 4 years to transition to dispatching and moving to Puerto Rico to dispatch drivers out here? Is that possible?
Can I start something like this in South Africa? I am currently a fleet controller and working from home would be amazing. Let me know if this is possible in South africa

I am square as a pool table and twice as green to this. Now if I take the 269.99 course and after finishing the course (your estimated guess) how long will it take to get me feet wet or get into the business? I have a college education and good work ethic.
Absolutely you can! You just have to get familiar with the geography of the United States. Also, you may want to connect with a business professional who can assist you in establishing your business set up abroad!
This is honestly subjective. I personally prefer MAC, but whatever is more user friendly for you. Just pick one that has a good memory, and a high speed processor.
Our dispatcher course includes pre-recorded videos, it is not a live class. Anyone has access to my personal email address as well to ask any kind of questions pertaining to freight dispatching.
What he really forgotten to mention is that you actually need a durable pillow cushion of atleast $50k in savings before you start building up your profits for back office expenses...

I'm thinking a laptop, a phone, legal pads, maybe a portable printer.
Of course, I will buy you course to get the knowledge I need.
I'm considering buying both the Box truck course and both dispatch courses. : )
Since you never got an answer, did you ever take any action?
How long have you been running your dispatching/trucking businesses. How is your chart of accounts working for you? Do they allow you to generate good informational reports!? P&L’s😮, Balance sheet, and budget formation, budget vs actual performance?
I utilize quickbooks and they are great!
Thanks
Thanks you so much
Should I purchase LLC before starting business or when business starts picking up I will be purchasing your course soon

Nice!
About to be up and running this week
@@T.P.F.how is your dispatching progress?
Great info my man.
Why we need printer/fax/Scanner????
We can also you software like Adobe pdf to signs RC/Paperwork?
You absolutely can, and I speak about that in another video, but let me give you an example where a scanner/fax will be useful. Sometimes certain brokers require a scanned copy of a BOL vs a photo.

How do you determine how much to pay yourself as an independent freight dispatcher?
Usually an independent freight dispatcher charges the carrier a percentage (per truck gross), or a flat rate fee (weekly) for their services.
