Profile For Mark H.

Guys, my name is Mark and im doing a research about Truckers, Loading Screens and some issues inside the industry. My job want to solve key problems for truckers, so the first move, is answer to the people about their problems. So... i have this questions, it will be very helpfull if you can comment or talk about this points.

1) Which are the main 3 problems that a trucker suffer every day? 2) Have you thinked about how to solve them? 3) What do you think about Loading Screens? Does it help you to improve your income? 4) If you could design your loading board, what are the key features that you need? 5) Do you use a broker for factoring? 6) When you have a new load, what are the things that take you time before and after the job? (insurance, permits, etc)

King Regards!

I don't want to sound rude, but if you have to ask these simple questions you are not ready to own or lease a truck.

If you are completely new and do not even have a CDL yet, you shouldn't be asking these questions either. I am assuming your completely new to trucking, if so buying a truck is a bad idea until you get some experience even then it is extremely difficult. Until you have multiple safe years under your belt trying to buy your own truck will ruin you financially just on insurance alone.

Become a company driver and make the same or more than a lot of O/O without the headaches.

well, first i want to do the math, then i will decide if i take the risk.

Can you help me with that questions Mr? Seems to be a very experienced trucker.

Thanks a lot

Guys, i would like to start trucking but i have 3 very important questions that i cant solve.

1) Which is the average revenue per mile that a trucker earn (Flatbed / 450hp truck) ? 2) How many do you pay to brokers (or they gives you final number, no fee) 3) How much it cost a flatbed for rental per mile or day? Do i have to buy one, or rental is ok?

Thanks a lot guys King Regards!
