From Solo Freight Broker To Business Owner | Episode 320

Ready to stop “owning your job” and start owning a brokerage that grows without you? This episode maps the move from solo broker to small business owner—how to know when you’re maxed out, who to hire first, and how to set up systems that make growth calm, not chaotic. We’ll cover reclaiming selling time with support roles, automations, and clear expectations; managing money with smart cash buffers, credit decisions, and key KPIs; and choosing the right structure—cradle-to-grave, pod, or split—plus the nuts and bolts of payroll, taxes, and compliance. If you want a brokerage that runs when you step away, this roadmap will get you there—with fewer headaches and healthier margins.
