I live in Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua, in northern Mexico, and I completed a $2,500 Freight Broker Agent Program at the University of Texas at El Paso.

Is it possible to find a broker to work with as an international agent?

Juárez is a very large industrial city. In my area, there are more than 700 manufacturing companies that move goods between Mexico and the United States.

I also have knowledge of Mexican customs regulations.

Thanks in advance

I’ve been trying to find the right TMS. No one seems to have the formula all the way together. I just need a complete system that will track my loads, send the proper documents to the right people, allow me to upload docs for the carrier. I should be able to add terms and conditions to any document that I create. I just switched from Mvmnt to Fenderr. It’s more user friendly but it’s missing components. I have faith they’ll make appropriate updates but what else are you guys using??

Finding experienced people in freight brokerage has been tougher lately.

What platforms or communities have worked best for you besides LinkedIn? Curious what’s actually working in the current market.

Hi there!

I need suggestions from you guys so I used to spend my 14 months as a freight Broker and in my journey of 14 months I used to do 3 loads only. In spite of getting lanes to quote I was not able to convert them to a potential client i tried my best work 12 hours a day but did not get results... I used to work on a food commodity for the past 8 months but did not get a single lead. I am confused, desperate and stressed about what I do differently so that I can get some leads or potential clients.

I want your help guys!

I have seen a lot of freight brokers looking for the right MC to work under.
What is better?
Good Broker MC to work under? or better commission?

I own my broker authority.. Looking for sub agents with a split
