Why Logistics Feels More Confusing Than It Should
Â
Logistics information online is fragmented, oversimplified, and often shaped by incentives that don’t align with long-term outcomes.
Many people enter roles without fully understanding:
Â
- Legal responsibility and personal liability
- Â Operational Realities: The difference between Authority, Agency, and Employment.
- Market Cycles: How volatility impacts general freight vs. specialized freight.
Â
Â
The issue is rarely your motivation. The issue is missing context.
Common Assumptions That Lead to Costly Mistakes
Many people enter logistics with beliefs that sound reasonable but create unnecessary risk.
Common assumptions include:
- Â Owning equipment is the only serious path (False)
- Â Load boards are the foundation of success (False)
- Â Dispatching, brokering, and agent roles are essentially the same
- Moving 'General Freight' is the safest way to start ( False - it is the most competitive)
- More effort fixes poor structure (False)
