    Does it make real sense if a business doesn't have a customer base of its own?

    To many think Sylectus is like an NLM or freight board. The concept of we wouldn't need multiple carriers says you are looking at it as a freight source vs having your own customers. While it does have an internal load posting section, that is not the main purpose of it. The original concept...

    Interesting argument. I think part has to do with a what size/revenue point it is profitable for Sylectus to have as a customer. They had a small carrier program in the past.

    Another good example. A carrier last week was still soliciting freight, yet had it's insurance cancelled and then it's authority revoked today. They are another good size player in this business model. I can only hope that the drivers hauling for this one will get paid and the carrier will...

    The most common one we have seen is improper (thus really no) insurance coverage. Very few insurance companies TRULY cover the expedite industry. Shelly at CIS did a great series on here describing this that is a must read in my opinion. Also we have seen carriers who will provide us with a...
