  • Revving Up with Ryan Rogers: Behind the Slack for Truck Drivers

    In the latest 3PL Live episode, we chat with Ryan Rogers, the supply chain expert behind TextLocate. Boasting 24 years of industry experience, Rogers pinpointed a distinct communication gap: professional drivers preferred periodic status checks over incessant tracking.

    Jessie sheds light on the diversity of tools and platforms her customers lean on, debunking the myth of a one-size-fits-all approach in freight tech.
