How to Become a Truck Dispatcher

Understanding the Role: A truck dispatcher manages freight for a carrier. They locate freight that needs to be shipped, negotiate with brokers, dispatch drivers, and set up routes. They also handle back-end work like reviewing drivers’ logs and tracking their hours.

Difference from a Freight Broker: Unlike a freight broker who serves as a middleman between the shipper and the carrier, a truck dispatcher is directly affiliated with a carrier and works on their behalf.

Legal Requirements: Freight dispatchers are not legally allowed to represent shippers or manufacturers. A freight brokerage business requires freight broker authority through the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) and a freight broker bond1.

Becoming a Truck Dispatcher for Another Company: If you want to become a truck dispatcher for another company, you can look for open positions on job boards or approach individual carriers and express your interest in becoming a freight dispatcher.

Becoming an Independent Truck Dispatcher: If you want to become an independent truck dispatcher, you need to understand truck dispatching and how you want to operate your business.

Responsibilities of a Truck Dispatcher: Responsibilities include negotiating prices based on current market data, coordinating pickups and deliveries, planning efficient routes for the driver, tracking shipments via a transportation management system (TMS), communicating with carriers regarding changes in route or delivery times, maintaining detailed records, addressing customer concerns, and assisting carriers with additional needs.

Steps to Become a Truck Dispatcher: The steps include having the necessary education, registering your business, and having access to the right tools.

Elevating Excellence: Why the Transportation and Logistics Industry Should Prioritize Enhanced Customer Service

In the fast-paced and competitive realm of transportation and logistics, the emphasis on enhanced customer service is becoming increasingly vital. This blog post delves into the reasons why the transportation and logistics industry should prioritize customer service, exploring how it can lead to increased customer satisfaction, improved operational efficiency, and a strengthened market position.

Transportation Customer Service:

Transportation customer service underscores the unique challenges and opportunities within the transportation sector. Acknowledging the specific needs of customers in the logistics chain is crucial for building lasting relationships and ensuring a positive overall experience.

Customer Support Management:

The customer support management highlights the strategic approach required to deliver exceptional customer service. Effective management of customer support processes, from order inquiries to issue resolution, is instrumental in meeting and exceeding customer expectations.

Multilingual Customer Support:

In an increasingly globalized world, the term Multilingual customer support becomes pivotal. Offering customer support in multiple languages is not just a convenience; it is a necessity in a diverse and interconnected marketplace. Multilingual customer support enhances accessibility, fosters international collaboration, and demonstrates a commitment to meeting the unique needs of a global customer base.

Reasons to Prioritize Enhanced Customer Service:

Customer Satisfaction: A focus on enhanced customer service directly correlates with increased customer satisfaction. By providing prompt and accurate information, addressing concerns proactively, and ensuring a seamless experience, businesses build trust and loyalty among their clientele.

Operational Efficiency: Streamlining customer support management contributes to operational efficiency. Resolving issues promptly, minimizing order discrepancies, and optimizing communication channels lead to smoother logistics operations and reduced disruptions.

Competitive Edge: In an industry where competition is fierce, superior customer service becomes a key differentiator. Companies that prioritize customer satisfaction gain a competitive edge, attracting and retaining clients in a market where service quality often defines success.

Brand Reputation: Customer service plays a crucial role in shaping a brand's reputation. Positive interactions with customers contribute to a positive brand image, while subpar customer service can lead to reputational damage. A strong brand reputation, built on excellent customer service, enhances market credibility and trust.

Conclusion: In conclusion, prioritizing enhanced customer service in the transportation and logistics industry is not just a matter of meeting expectations; it is a strategic imperative. From transportation customer service tailored to the unique needs of the industry to effective customer support management and multilingual support for a global clientele, the benefits are manifold. By placing customer satisfaction at the forefront, businesses in the transportation and logistics sector can navigate challenges, foster growth, and secure a prominent position in an ever-evolving and competitive marketplace. In a world where customer-centricity is paramount, elevating customer service becomes a pathway to sustained success and industry leadership.

So why do you hate the advertising industry?

Hokay so.

Let me preface this with some personal history. It's not relevant to the sins of the advertising industry perse but it illustrates how I started to grow to hate it.

I wanted to be a veterinarian growing up, but to be a vet you basically have to be good enough to get into medical school. I do not have the math chops or discipline to make it in medical school. I went into art instead, and in a desperate attempt to find some commercial viability that didn't involve moving to California, I went into graphic design.

I've been a graphic designer for about seven or eight years now and I've worn a lot of hats. One of them was working in a print shop. Now, the print shop had a lot of corporate customers who had various ad campaigns. One of them was Gate City Bank, which had a bigass stack of postcards ordered every couple months to mail to their customers.

Now, paper comes from Dakota Paper, and they make their paper the usual way. Somewhere far, far from our treeless plain there is a forest of tall trees. These trees are cut down and put on big fossil fuel burning trucks and hauled to a paper mill that turns them into pulp while spewing the most fowl odors imaginable over the neighboring town and loads the pulp up with bleach to give it a nice white color.

Then the paper is put on yet another big truck and hauled off to the local paper depot, then put on another big truck and delivered to my print shop, where I turned the paper into postcards telling people to go even deeper into debt to buy a boat because it's almost summer. The inks used are a type of nasty heat sensitive plastic that is melted to the surface of the paper with heat. Then the postcards are put on yet ANOTHER truck and sent to the bank, which puts them on ANOTHER truck and finally into the hands of their customers, who open their mail and take one look at the post card and immediately discard it.

Heaps and heaps and literal hundreds of pounds of literal garbage created at the whim of the marketing team several times a year. And thats just one bank in one city.

I came to realize very quickly that graphic design was the delicate art of turning trees into junk mail.

And wouldn't you know it there are a TON of companies that basically only do junk mail. Many of them operate under the guise of a "charity," sending you pictures of suffering children or animals and begging for handouts and when they get those handouts the executives take a nice fat cut, give some small token amount to whatever cause they pay lip service to, and then put the rest of the cash right back into making more mailers. "Direct mail marketing" they call it.

Oh but maybe it's not so bad, you can advertise online after all. Now that there's decent ad blocker out there and better anti-virus ads usually don't destroy your computer anymore just by existing.

Except now when I search for the exact business I want on Google it's buried under three or four different "promoted search items" tricking me into clicking on them only to shoot themselves in the foot because I searched for the specific result I wanted for a reason and couldn't use those other websites even if I felt like it.

And now we have advertising on YouTube and on every streaming service, forcing more and more eyes onto the ad for the brand new Buick Envision that parks itself because you're too stupid to do it on your own.

Oh thats ok maybe I'll get Spotify premium and go ad free and listen to some podcasts- SIKE we have the hosts of your show doing the song and dance now. Are you depressed and paranoid from listening to my true crime podcast about murdered and mutilated teenagers? That's ok, my sponsor Better Help can keep you sane enough to stay alive and spend more money.

It's gotten so terrible that now you have content farms, huge hubs of shell companies that crank out video after video to get more and more precious clicks. Which if the videos were innocuous maybe that wouldn't be so awful except now you have cooking hacks that can actually burn your house down and craft hacks that can electrocute you being flung into your eyes at the speed of mach fuck so some slimy internet clickbait jockey doesn't need to get a real job.

It of course goes without saying that animals are also relentlessly exploited by clickbait companies that will put them in compromising situations on purpose to create a fake fishing hack video or even just straight up killing them for sport by feeding small animals to a pufferfish that rips them apart for the camera.

And all of this, ALL of this doesn't even touch how adveritising is the death of art in general. Queer topics, any kind of interesting art, any kind of sex or substance use topics are scrubbed clean and hidden at the behest of advertisers.

Sex education, a nude statue, topics such as racism or sexism or bigotry in general have tags purged or hidden from search, even life saving information about SDTs or drug use, because if someone saw that and complained then Verizon might sell fewer tablets and we can't fucking have that.

Conservative talking heads often bitch and moan that they're being censored on social media. The stupid part is, they're right! They are being censored! But it's not by a woke mob, it's by ATT and Coca Cola not wanting their adspace sharing screen time with their stupid fucking opinions.

However, they won't ever figure that out, because the talking heads they get their marching orders from like Tucker and Jones ALSO rely on the sweet milk flowing from the sponsorship teat and they aren't about to turn on their meal ticket so they have to come up with even stupider shit to say for the train to continue rolling.

I managed to rant this far without even getting into the ads I see for the beauty industry. The other day a botox ad described wrinkles as "moderate to severe crows feet" as if wrinkles are a symptom of a fucking serious disease! Like having a flaw in your skin is a medical problem that you need thousands of dollars of literal botulism toxin to fix! I was incandescent with anger.

Advertising is a polluting, censoring, anti educational and anti art industry at it's very core. It destroys human connections, suppresses human thought and makes us hate our own bodies. It ads no value, actively detracts from value, and serves no real purpose and I believe it should be almost if not entirely banned.

Everything You Need to Know about Full Truck Load Booking

Organizations – manufacturers and retailers - have multiple options for shipping them freights from point A to point B. When it comes to road transportation, full truck loading (FTL) is highly preferable for shipping heavy-haul or high-value items over long distances. Additionally, the shipping mode is the way to go for companies that are time-bound and looking to transport delicate materials. The best part, full loads require less handling (loading and unloading), implying the odds of damages are minimal.

Read on to know what makes full truck loading stand out from other transportation modes.

Price Negotiations

With full truck loading, customers can negotiate the prices with the transportation agencies in real-time according to the current market conditions. Usually, the quotes from FTL transporters adjust with the factors, including fuel costs, current demand, and type of shipment.

For example, a full-load transporter could negotiate their quotes as they need a backhaul load for their return journey. Or, they may consider the city where your full truck load rests at a preferred destination. Whatever the reason, you save money.

Reduced Delivery Times

For time-critical package orders, fast delivery times are non-negotiable. While transporting via full truck load services, the goods remain in the same container throughout the journey. As such, total transit times for full-load freights are lesser than other transportation modes.

The reasons include no additional halts between pickup and drop-off locations, no other shipments to load, no terminals to visit, and no need to relocate merchandise to delivery vehicles.

Besides, the exclusive use of trailer spaces throughout freight transportation means no more waiting for additional consignment to be loaded. Once your merchandise is on/in the container, the driver can press the accelerator.

Minimal Risk of Damage

The fewer the touchpoints, the less likely freights will get compromised or misplaced as they are transferred from containers to warehouses to trucks. Every move represents a potential loss or damage.

Full truck load companies have only two touchpoints:

Shipments loaded into the container or onto a flatbed at the origin

Shipments unloaded at the delivery destination

Moreover, as you have the entire trailer space for your shipment, you need not worry about other companies’ cargo damaging yours. Furthermore, the reduced number of touchpoints translates to reduced human intervention – a factor worth considering, especially during pandemics.

Seamless Shipment Loading

Initial freight loading with full truck load services is less cumbersome than other shipping methods. For instance, if you combine truckload and transload services, the warehouse only needs to shift the shipments from one container and load them directly into another completing the last-mile delivery.

The same transload service for, case in point, a partial truckload (PTL) is slower as crates and pallets are audited, reweighed, and reclassified to determine the total expenses.

Should You Go for Full Truck Loading?

FTL outshines other modes in two primary ways – the deliveries are significantly time-efficient and the goods remain in pristine order.

Similar to any other shipping service, the decision to leverage full truck load services relies on whether you can benefit from how they function. So, performing due diligence before booking an agency and following the best practices becomes critical.

Furthermore, map out your strategies effectively and consistently for assured capacity and lock the best deals from full truck load companies.
