Let's welcome our first guest this week, Eric Jordan, a third-party logistics broker at SPI Logistics, talking about his journey to becoming an independent agent and running a successful freight agency!

Eric shares the early grind of making 75 cold calls a day, creative ways he landed customers, and how relationships and referrals now drive half his business.

We dive into the reality of sales pre- and post-COVID, why industry specialization matters more than ever, how a support structure allows agents to move high-value freight without missing a beat, and the hardest lessons he learned about contracts, financial discipline, and protecting your business!
