We did what you paid us to do????

You know, a good business man is always looking for new and creative revenue streams. I can see this being an untapped market with a lot of potential.

Mac 19 is showing the yard to be nearly empty of sprinter vans....something must be moving today. :thumbup:

That is just it. The smallest of things makes a lasting impression. Something as simple as saying "thank you for choosing Load One today" or "thank you for trusting Load One for your expedite needs" they may not seem like much but they do leave a lasting impression and are one more thing that sets us apart. The company name may stick in the head of 10% of them and they may call in more. They have a choice who to use, we want them to want to see our drivers at their door.

I don't think I could say "Thank you for choosing Load 1" without it sounding phony, or coerced [like when the Verizon rep apologizes for the inconvenience] but that might just be me. What I do say is this: every time a shipper asks which carrier I'm with, I say "Load 1- because they are the best in the business." I don't think they hear too many drivers complimenting their own carrier, so maybe it stands out.

I agree. I think each person has a way of sending the right message in a way that works for them. It makes the concept a whole lot more genuine.
