Testimonials
I am taking coaching classes from Benjamin and Nate from Freight 360. I learn about niche, CRM and TSM, which I never learned from any freight broker school. After taking freight broker courses, I do not know what to do next. I was so confused about the whole process. Thanks to Ben who taught me how to start my business, how important to have CRM and TSM and how to target your prospects. I can go on and on about their teaching but I want everyone who is reading this try yourself. One more thing their price are very reasonable also. I highly recommend Freight 360 coaching.

Ben was an incredible support during my first year and held me accountable to maintaining a high level of activity. Ben helped me to set, achieve, and exceed my goals such as getting MDRT and qualifying for a quarterly incentive trip -- goals that I would not have set without his encouragement and insights. Additionally, he helped me to sharpen sales-specific skills such as closing and making a good introduction. He also made a point to help me break down the sales cycle and create processes and systems to ensure consistency in activity and results. Being a very analytically minded person, I found it very helpful.

I have been working with Ben for 1 month. I have been instilling all of the training and tips that he is providing into my existing sales team. We have already experienced an uptick in sales and referrals...but even better than the numbers, my reps are having more fun and spending less energy. We are excited to continue the journey. Ben has an abundance of knowledge and delivers it in bite sized pieces and reinforces the strategies every time we speak

Being trained by Ben was excellent. He didn't give me just generic busy work, but really catered to what I needed as an individual. As a result I had the best year in my career and would recommend his services for anyone wanting to get ahead in freight brokering.

Ben at Freight 360 has been providing me coaching services for a couple of months. Although I've provided transportation services for over a quarter of a century (15+ years as Landstar agent, 10+ as broker) I had been neglecting sales and marketing duties. I was too busy working IN the business and not ON it. Ben has helped me identify my strengths and weaknesses which has built my confidence back up. Further, he's helped me better organize myself so that I can efficiently and effectively reach out to prospects. I look forward to continuing work with him in order to enhance my skills and learn more about what other brokers are experiencing. I highly recommend working with Ben whether you've been in the business for a long time or are just thinking about opening your own brokerage.

Benjamin Kowalski and Nate Cross offer a very intimate interactive comprehensive approach to overcoming any apprehensiveness or other road blocks that may exist. Coming from a background outside the trucking industry, I'm thankful that i have not one but two mentors who are both knowledgeable and giving. The knowledge they're imparting, is a blessing. I'm ready to start this journey with their help. Make sure you join their free podcast F360. I'm looking forward to this journey.
