Hi everyone.
Did you know there’s a multi-billion-dollar GLOBAL opportunity in the transportation industry? It happens to be one that’s not widely known. It has to do with shipping freight and, in this case, with those who help to do that, otherwise known as freight brokers. My guest expert, Jason Bauch, owns businesses which focus on freight brokering.
On this episode, Jason speaks about (1) his unusual path to getting involved in freight brokering, (2) some of the biggest changes and challenges taking place in the freight brokering space, (3) the global nature of the business, and (4) the gargantuan projected growth in freight brokering during this decade.
Most importantly, Jason identifies at least three opportunities for people to enter the freight brokering business, and he offers some helpful tips on who's best suited for this kind of work, and how they can get started.
Now a little bit more about Jason. Jason began his logistics career in 1997 as a driver. After a serious driving accident, he then moved into the office and managed a fleet of over 30 trucks. Later, he transitioned to the brokerage side of the business and has spent the last 22 years learning, innovating, and developing personally, professionally, and financially.
Jason possesses vast knowledge of the transportation industry as a whole-- including dealing with temperature-controlled products-- as made evident by his impressive list of customers in the food industry.
Jason is an owner of 3 businesses. 360 Freight Solutions focuses on building long-term relationships with carriers (typically, truck companies) and customers, those who have products or goods to ship. https://www.360freightsolutions.com/
His second business is Brokerz Edge, which is intended to combat misinformation about the industry and teach people how to earn a multiple 6-figure income in the freight brokering business. https://www.brokerzedge.com/
His newest company, Luramiles, is a logistics company that removes the bottlenecks in the transportation industry. Think of it as like an Amazon for freight. Luramiles helps small-to-mid-sized trucking companies get exposure to more customers by improving the flow of information and communication https://luramiles.com/
You can reach Jason and learn about his companies through any of the websites shown above, as well as on various social media platforms, such as LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram.
