A simple roadmap for new dispatchers Starting a career in truck dispatching can feel overwhelming, but you don't need to know everything on day one. You need to learn the fundamentals, practice consistently, and understand how the trucking industry works. 1. Understand the Basics Before searching for loads, learn: - Different equipment types: Dry Van, Reefer, Flatbed, Hotshot, Box Truck, and Power Only. - How carriers, brokers, and shippers work together. - Miles, deadhead, RPM, gross revenue, and profit. - Basic Hours of Service (HOS) rules. 2. Learn How to Use Load Boards Become familiar with: - DAT One - Truckstop - Sylectus (especially for suitable smaller equipment and specialized freight) Learn how to filter loads by equipment, location, destination, weight, and rate. 3. Master Rate Negotiation Never accept a rate without understanding the numbers. Practice: - Asking for the broker's best rate. - Calculating revenue per mile. - Considering deadhead miles. - Negotiating professionally. - Knowing when to walk away from a bad load. 4. Understand Essential Documents Learn the purpose of: - Carrier packet - W-9 - Certificate of Insurance (COI) - MC and USDOT information - Rate confirmation - Bill of Lading (BOL) - Proof of Delivery (POD) 5. Develop Communication Skills A good dispatcher must communicate confidently with brokers and carriers. Practice: - Cold calling. - Broker follow-ups. - Rate negotiations. - Appointment scheduling. - Tracking and status updates. - Handling difficult situations professionally. 6. Learn Common Trucking Terms Make sure you understand: - DH: Deadhead miles - RPM: Revenue per mile - FCFS: First Come, First Served - PU: Pickup - DEL: Delivery - TONU: Truck Ordered Not Used - Detention: Compensation for excessive waiting time - Layover: Compensation for an extended delay - Lumper: Fee for loading or unloading services 7. Practice Before Going Live Don't just watch YouTube videos. Practice real-world scenarios.

I got my first carrier! He found me on Instagram and we had the sales call today, he signed the contract and sent it back after the call. Our onboarding call is Wednesday and he has a 40ft Hotshot. I'm super excited that this is all coming together. Now I don't feel like I'm 'starting a business' like the business is up and running really quick and im just here for the ride lol. I've only been in the paid course for a month so I know I have a lot to learn. If anyone has any experience with Hotshots, or hotshots in the Texas area, I'd love to pick your brain :)

I am grabbing my EIN & DUNS # today. I am loving this journey. I will also become a member of the university today. I started this journey on the 7th of October, and I didn't know it would move this fast. Following the free course makes it flow. I can not wait to see how the paid course flows.
