Today, we're featuring Beagl's founder, Eric Williams, to discuss focusing on daily execution by automating RFP processes!

Eric highlights the importance of brand reputation, sustainable business models in freight, winning RFPs through trust and network strengths, and why brokers need to understand their business execution capabilities, deliver ongoing value, and engage in strategic calls to build trust and filter viable prospects!
