Many of you don’t know this, but exactly four years ago, I quit my brokerage job, to open my own brokerage: Bang Bang Freight 😂. When prospecting we went by BBF. We had a couple of shippers and even did $50k in revenue the first month in business with 15% margins with no TMS, just an excel sheet and a rate confirmation sheet I put together myself. Our phone number (833-HAUL-BBF) was one digit off of CH Robinson’s (833-HAUL-CHR). Before quitting my job at a brokerage, I never realized all the effort it took to be a successful brokerage. It’s a lot more difficult than it seems when you’re just an employee and requires a lot of cash in the bank; particularly in the beginning when you have to pay carriers 50% upfront and 50% at delivery because you have no credit score. After 6 months, my partner and I decided to close it down. There were a few reasons why, but mainly I just wasn’t excited about building a brokerage. I spent most of my days making freight memes and for whatever reason that took off. Running FreightCaviar, although also not easy, is a lot more enjoyable than building a brokerage. Here’s a look at the back of our shirts. In the front, we had our slogan written: “Moving Freight, Feeling Great.”

Humble doesn't begin to describe how I feel about the opportunity to join the team at Dolfin When I started my career in sales compensation, I simply wanted to break into tech sales and learn how to sell software. But after being in the space, I quickly realized how many people are suffering because of inadequate sales compensation processes. From salespeople with no visibility into their commission + errors, to rev ops teams wasting hours doing manual configuration, calculations, and data entry, to leadership missing revenue goals due to systems that can't deliver. It's 2025. The sales, Finance, and Revenue teams deserve the tools to make their jobs easier and achieve their targets. I am on mission to make sure they are equipped with those tools. For those that are familiar with Dolfin , you know they are already changing the landscape. For those that haven't heard...check your phone. I will be calling you. Will you ride the wave? ⛴️ #sales #compensation #tech #SaaS #commission #excel

Plan B is delighted that Louis Cutajar decided to rejoin the team after two years working elsewhere. Here’s his take on his new role, what’s changed and what’s stayed the same. 1️⃣ What enticed you back to Plan B? A return in a sales capacity was always on my mind having thoroughly enjoyed my first stint with Plan B. 2️⃣ What’s your new role? I’m working in the Material Sales team. It’s my job to deliver best value for our client's material through our portfolio of long-term customers, whilst ensuring compliance and duty of care is adhered to, which is absolutely paramount. 3️⃣ Has the company changed much in your absence? There has definitely been an increase in the number of contracts we’re operating, and the Back Office team has doubled in size! But the culture of the business hasn’t changed: it has the same welcoming environment and everyone determined to achieve success on behalf of our clients. 4️⃣ What do you enjoy most about your job? I love speaking to people. From the Plan B team to customers and clients at our sites, every conversation is different, and I learn something new from each. It might be technical knowledge about a piece of machinery or plant, or a new waste stream fact, it’s a fascinating industry. Plan B’s values are aligned to mine, so integrating, on both occasions, has been pretty seamless. Welcome back Louis! We know you’ll make a success of your new role. ⭐

My main goal with building Superbrick was to be ‘over-subscribed’. To have more demand than supply. 3 reasons: 1. We can be selective on the work we know we can deliver and client we choose 2. We can build a waitlist, where we can slot in and schedule work for upcoming months, so we can be more consistent on revenue 3. Sales process seems quite a bit smoother because of it, which has been a bonus Over the past 6 weeks, we have now got to that stage! We are now about 150% oversubscribed, meaning for every 2 projects we approve, we decline or add to the waitlist for upcoming months. We’ve been sprinting to get there for the last 18 months so it’s a good milestone to be at!

Success in business and sales, as in marriage, means that "closing the deal" is not the finish line. It's the beginning of an ever-deepening relationship of trust. When you find great customers and strategic partners who give you energy... Cherish them. Those are relationships you should never take for granted, neglect, or allow to get stale. #SystematicSelling #Sales
