What I need help with

My background as an entrepreneur

My current challenges

Finding companies to contract the trucks do that will handle most of the operations, as well as trying to figure out the numbers.

Actions I’ve taken so far

Started contacting a few companies and researching the kind of trucks I want to use

My future goals

To have a fleet of 25+ trucks producing.

My motivations to work with a mentor

I'm relatively new to the trucking industry and could greatly benefit from someones experience who is already where I'm looking to be.

About my venture

Keep it Truckin

I'm looking to start a trucking business, mainly leasing trucks and turning around and contracting them with other freight and 3PL companies.
