Hi my name is Tandra. I live in Wisconsin and I plan on making $6,000 per month as an owner-operator driving a 26ft box truck. I want to get these 3 things from this course/community: 1.  Pricing strategies that actually work in different markets 2.  Business development - a dispatcher to get me loads 3. Route optimization - which highways to avoid/prefer For fun I like to do these 3 things: 1.  Reading 2.  networking 3.  helping people

@Tandra Hill got laid off from her job in May 2025… And in the last 30 days, she’s signed around 10 carriers and lined up ~$20,000/month in potential revenue dispatching trucks. Here’s how it happened 👇🏽 (NOTE: Full interview is posted below…) Just a few months ago, Tandra was a receiving supervisor at a hazardous waste plant. Her boss controlled: - Her schedule - Her income - And even the level of respect she got at work Then they “downsized”… and she was one of the people let go. She was tired of being replaceable and decided this time had to be different... Her first plan? Start a box truck company. She watched my YouTube videos, ran the numbers, and realized: Buying the truck + maintenance + all the startup costs would almost wipe out her savings and investments… …plus she didn’t even know how to drive a box truck yet. She didn’t want a careless risk. She wanted a calculated one. That’s when she pivoted to truck dispatching. She was already inside Dispatcher University (LITE), she saw the community + free course, and thought: “Let me actually give this dispatching thing a real shot.” So she took the risk and joined the paid Dispatcher University course + community. And here's what happened in the last 30 days... → She joined the "Dispatch Games" (our 30-day challenge to post content + run ads) → Watched the Week 4 Facebook Ads training inside the paid course → Set her ad budget (aimed to spend $500, capped at ~$600) → Used ChatGPT to create ad images + recorded one simple video → Ran the Facebook ads exactly how it’s taught inside Dispatcher University The result? → ~10 carriers signed in about 30 days → Roughly $20,000/month in potential revenue (once trials roll off) → So many carriers that she actually had to let a few go to focus on her core group No truck. No massive startup costs. No cold calling. Just one skill, one traffic source, and one decision to bet on herself. When I asked what she’d tell someone on the fence, her message was simple:

Hey gang, in your experience, what are the best times for cold-calling? Do you start calling at 8 AM or do you wait until 9 AM or 10 AM to cold-call businesses, owner operators? Thank you 😊

Hi, my name is Lena. I live in coastal North Carolina, and I plan on making $5,000 per month dispatching trucks. I want to get these 3 things from this course/community: 1. Learn how to dispatch loads consistently. 2. Find carriers to start my business. 3. Learn the basics of the business to start earning money. For fun, I like to do these 3 things: 1. Family time. 2. Read. 3. Travel the US and the world. Lena :)
