🌟 Industry Legacy Series: The Transformation Era - 2009 🌟 #Transformation2009: A year that marked a new era of change and growth for Select Carriers with the addition of Jeff to our team in the fall. With over 25 years of experience spanning operational and sales roles in the truckload sector, Jeff brought a wealth of knowledge to Select Carriers. Starting his career as an OTR driver in the early '80s, Jeff's diverse background granted him a unique perspective and skill set, perfectly aligned with our mission of building long-term, mutually beneficial relationships. 📈 Jeff's impact was immediate and transformative. He played a pivotal role in expanding the scope and depth of Select's Carrier Partners and Shipper Clients. More significantly, Jeff spearheaded the shift from a brokerage-centric model to a robust sales and business development force, redefining our approach to logistics solutions. His contributions signified not just growth, but a fundamental transformation in how we operate and engage with our clients. This era under Jeff's influence was about evolving and adapting to the changing needs of the logistics world. Join us as we continue to celebrate the transformative moments in our #IndustryLegacySeries that have shaped the journey of Select Carriers.

In the last 30 days I spoke to 3 GMs of cab companies in the UK making $500,000 - $1M in revenue per year. ONE thing they all have in common that stroke me. They want to GROW. → ‘Our business is steady, but we want to keep improving all the time.’ → ‘Stability may look good. But for us it means Decline.’ → ‘If we don’t grow or improve, we are slowly dying.’ That’s why they are open to see: * what the options are  * what’s going on in the market  * if they are going in the right direction GROWTH is what differs the best from the rest.  Open mindset.  Proactiveness. Humility. 🚕 If you are looking for ways to scale your transportation or cab business, please reach out. We work with fleets of 50 drivers or more. Photo credit: Garry Knight (c)

**How important is “team” to your bottom line?** 🤔 In the trucking and ground transportation industry, the subject focus tends to be on things you'd expect. For example, shipping and spot rates, regulation, logistics technology, equipment sales and trends like EVs, industry dynamics like mergers, and so on.   There are countless other topics that get less attention but which can be critical to business success. We believe a well-functioning team lies somewhere in the range of important-to-critical.   Something as seemingly mundane like how a team manages how it renews driver credentials and vehicle expirations can play an outsized role in a lot of ways that add up to either a big hit or a nice lift to profits and revenues. How? Why? (And yes, this is where we can help).   A team that works together makes a real difference. When individuals are empowered to work with the same timely information (everyone has their own responsibilities), that’s when you get people to work proactively and in sync with one another. It’s not unlike a successful football team working like a well-oiled machine. We all know the results for teams that are dysfunctional and lack good structure and planning. The effort might be there but they're competing against themselves.   As a transportation company, you have probably seen this in various forms. Great companies are always looking for new ways to up their game. So why not get in touch and have a brief conversation to do just that? #TruckingIndustry #OperationsManagement #SafetyManagement #BusinessSuccess
