The first time a miscommunication happens, eh. The second time? Now that's a pattern.

It becomes essential to address any potential problems early for your sake and those around you who are involved in the freight.

What was one minor issue that snowballed into a larger one?

Freight fraud is a growing epidemic, but fortunately, people like Gabriel Ribeiro are helping stop it in its tracks.

It was great speaking with Gabriel on a recent episode of The Freight Lane and seeing how his organization is cutting down on fraud at the source.

Have you been affected by freight fraud?

Freight can run in the family.

It ran in my family, and that's how I am here today; and even now, our newer freight generation is following in the same footsteps.

It can be life-changing, so why not spread it throughout the family?

Amber Larrea and I spoke on this in a recent episode of The Freight Lane.

Are you and your family in the same industry?

You're collecting data, but are you listening to it?

Sometimes, it's that data that could help you refine the shipping process.

If you had the ability to see what is and isn't working, wouldn't you be happier? Well, there is data to help you with that.

How often do you assess your shipment data?

While the motor carrier is responsible, anything can happen.

If you've been in this industry long enough, you know that a solid plan can be interrupted when you least expect it. That's why you need the right insurance and coverage.

What was a mistake that came completely from left field?

Offering a competitive rate is great, but are you focusing only on the numbers?

If you want the best handling and communication, you have to go beyond just a good rate offer. You need to be the human on the other end of the line.

I'll say it again: freight is a relationship-focused industry above all else.

Would you agree?

A big and flashy TMS might not actually be what you need.

As a small carrier, it could be nice to have the bigger and "Better" things, but are they actually better for you? You need a TMS that gets the job done and aligns with your needs, not one with bells and whistles that will get in your way.

How did you choose your TMS?

You don't want to miss this step.

Right after the shipment is booked is the most important moment in the shipment process, and it's too often that I see so many teams skim over this part.

If you want a successful shipment, pay attention to this step.

Are you taking full advantage of this time?
