Just landed a new opportunity as a freight broker , coming from a procurement logistics background at 24 years of age. This information will be useful for my first start at this, appreciate the important information, very very useful .
Great to hear and glad this helps!
I think that was my biggest mistake was posting a rate on DAT with the load instead of letting the broker ask about the rate or request the rate
Yea exactly. Sometime less information gives you more leverage. You can use these tips to negotiate better from either side.
This is a great breakdown.
Thank you for your comment :) I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Thanks for the great insight! I appreciate the information.
Absolutely glad it helped.
Great insights. I am a Carrier and a broker. As a carrier we love it when a broker posts their rate. To a Carrier it’s a starting point. Brokers shouldn’t post a rate.
Ive had mixed results with posting rates. not sure which method is better tbh as Ive gotten positive and negative results from each. Only solution is to try both ways

Hi, great video ,, I don't see the lik to download the list .

How much does the broker make per load? Do they aim for a set fee or a cents per mile?
Depends on so many factors you can make anywhere from 150 to multiple thousands. In average…let’s call it $250
if only this happened in reality. A lot of brokers don't negotiate for the most part.
Yea most don't know how or don't realize that they can as far as working carriers down.
They also don't know how to negotiate with their shippers which results in Sh**ty rates for carriers. They back themselves into a corner with a crap rate and then that is when you experience them not negotiating
