You don’t have to be perfect with every load. Due to opportunity costs, spending too much time looking for that “perfect” load is likely going to lead to mostly wasted time and missed opportunities. It’s more important to find loads that put you in position to book a successful next load and continually repeat that process.
A meaningful distinction to make is that not everyone’s “right” load is the same. When booking the “right” load for you, it’s important that you’re thinking about a repeatable strategy to help you sustain your continued success.
Continually aim to put yourself in an advantageous location:
Understand your baseline costs:
Know your strategy and act fast:
Remember, prioritize efficient load selection over perfection, as spending too much time seeking the "perfect" load can lead to missed opportunities. Understand that your "right" load may differ from others, so develop a repeatable strategy tailored to your needs.
