 Freight Brokerage startup April 1, 2009
RB (Wisconsin)
Read the book cover to cover. Some of the contentis useful, some of the content was not. 1/2 the book was very generic to any business startup and didn't add value. I recommend the book but DO NOT purchase through the seller I used. The shipping time is painfully looooong and expensive.
 Good tips November 27, 2009
K. Macwilliams (MA, USA)
This book has great tips on certain topics. However, the book really doesn't have a personal feel to it. Being a freight broker is a lot more complicated then this book makes it out to be. It also really glazes over topics that shouldn't be glazed over, like forming a customer base. The order in which the material is presented is also a bit lacking. For example, we discover what kind of money it takes to start the business, at the end of the book. It almost seems they are trying to portray this as a get rich quick scheme, instead of a fully functional self starting career.

This book completely oversimplifies almost every aspect of brokering frieght. It has a few good tips, that's about it.
