About Blythe Brumleve Milligan

Blythe Brumleve Milligan is the Founder of both Digital Dispatch (logistics marketing services) and most recently CargoRex, a tech platform aimed at connecting and empowering the logistics ecosystem. In 2008, Blythe Brumleve was working as a waitress and a blogger with a dream of owning her own company when she received an opportunity to work in the world of logistics. As an executive assistant to the C-suite, she gained first-hand knowledge of the daily operations of a $140M asset-based logistics provider. Knowing about her blogging side hustle, the executive team allowed her to take on the additional responsibility of the company’s digital marketing initiatives, where she orchestrated two website redesigns, implemented an inbound marketing initiative, and established a sales outreach plan. After the unexpected closure of the logistics company, Blythe sought opportunities in traditional marketing and media, serving as editor in chief of Void Magazine, B2B copywriter, and radio/TV broadcaster. Her team won several awards, including three ADDYs and runner-up for Jacksonville’s Best Radio Personality
