Freight brokerage is one of the most lucrative positions in logistics — connecting shippers with carriers and taking a margin on every load. This course teaches you the full operational and business model behind running a freight brokerage at scale.

What you'll learn: • How freight brokerage works: the shipper-broker-carrier relationship and revenue model • Licensing and compliance: FMCSA authority, surety bonds, and broker regulations • Building a carrier network: vetting, onboarding, and managing carrier relationships • Load boards: how to use DAT, Truckstop, and direct shipper relationships effectively • Pricing strategy: rate quoting, market rate analysis, and margin management • Shipper acquisition: prospecting, cold outreach, and converting shippers to long-term accounts • Freight TMS for brokerages: tracking loads, managing documents, and automating processes • Spot market vs. contracted freight: how to balance both for stable revenue • Scaling from solo broker to a full brokerage operation
