Truck drivers jobs are losing value daily, Last year I was working full time budgeting groceries, unable to afford date nights, and missing time with my kids just to make extra money. These days I learn how to make money online, Using my job to finance my goals, You can't be an employee forever everyone should know, homeschooling and making profits every week should be the goal.

What is factoring?

Awesome video, can you talk about the administration side of things

What happened to the checklist link??

I’m 21 with a 3500 do you have any tips for young people getting in hot shot?

Is the annual inspection considered to be the DOT inspection?

Do you need to get a DOT inspection on your truck and trailer

Hey man, just found your channel, been driving a couple years and it's perfect for me as I'm a debt free SINK homeowner. Eventually I'll save up a pile of cash and something like hotshot might be a good place to start... The company I drive for was recently sold and I went from a loaded-only low cpm position to a significant cpm jump for every mile I drive, more than doubling my income. Thank God. Never happens right? LOL...I LOVED that you paid your driver per mile no matter what. I agree, I feel it's the right thing to do and jw if that is still the case today for you as the business owner? (Obv I'm looking eventually to not be on the road and for as much as I'd enjoy the extra cash, paying whoever I hire WELL is important to me. Reap whatchya sow kinda thing. Thanks for the info either way, it's MUCH appreciated bro. Subbed. Good luck, stay safe sir and God bless!

Can I get hired to hotshot without experience?

.

What is your facebook group name?

Thanks great info

I have my Class A and all the endorsements. I assume the leasing would be best at first. I'm interested in hauling cars. I need more info.

Thanks very informative

Should I put my truck in my business name I’ll put it in my personal images, add commercial insurance

You don’t need 15k-20k 😭 you can start up 5k you can get a business account with enterprise and lease they trucks

Have to do diesel? Can't breathe the fumes

Sir I have my own truck and trailer snd they are paid for is there work out there for me and where do I start ?

I established my CDL A, Opened an LLC, Opened a business bank account and have a Dodge 3500 dually Cummins. I'm not experienced driving for a company, but have been hauling RV's for several years. Any thoughts on who to start with? Live in California..... Thanks for all your information.

Does anyone know a Regional Hot shot company that provides the truck and trailer who’s hiring and is a good company and pays well?

I have around 6-7 years driving semi, reefer, flatbed and dry van experience.

Looking for maybe something doing Southeast and Southwest. Thanks in advance!!🦅💪🏻👍

I couldn’t find the check list

thanks for all this advices!! what do you think about starting with a 200.000 miles truck? Cant afford anything else right now, Thanks!!

I'm really thinking of doing something other than work in a warehouse the rest of my life. Instead of working for crumbs, I want to be my own man and make serious cash in a week.

I'm just starting, can you help with who can I get insurance from and how much is the insurance

I'm curious how much you pay per mile. I have a friend who asked me to research. She wants to get into this business.

Where is the checklist

Lemme tell y'all something after 1 year in business. Everyone who asks me this is what I say....your gonna drive 100k miles a year at least that alone is 30 to 50 thousand dollars in fuel cost. Plus all your maintenance house rent and bills commercial insurance and everything. My expenses this year were close to 75 thousand dollars. Loads on average pay 1 to 1.50 a mile if your starting small don't expect to get over a dollar a mile. So at 100k miles that's 100 grand net minus 75k in expenses don't leave you much. This business is not as easy as it may seem. You spend thousands of dollars a year on just tires oil changes twice a month or more plus repairs and other maintenance your commercial insurance will start off around 1500 a month mine has now gone down to 800 a month for my second year with no claims. You will touch lots of money but it goes flying right away like it's got wings. My second year in business my goal is to never run for less then 1.50 a mile. I started this with a half ton Ecoboost f150 and a 22ft bumper pull flatbed you wanna talk about struggle I went through it with that setup. Now I have a older f350 and a 40ft gooseneck that I'm going into my second year with double the trailer I'm hoping for higher profit this year. But nobody is gonna dive into this business and laugh to the bank you will have lots to learn and lots of connections that you need to establish. This is not a get rich quick business but in reality no business is get rich quick especially in the first year or so. I'm still proud I maintained my business paid all my bills with just enough extra to get by and didn't fail completely. I talked to lots of shippers and I would say 50 percent of hotshots quit or fail in first year because you will get slapped around good.

Stop making videos in the truck driving down the road. That is not a good role model for the trucking industry. You are what is known as a distracted driver. You were looking straight on into the camera, you should be constantly checking the mirrors. you didn't even see that car that came up in the passing lane. This will be brought to court and used against you if you are involved in an accident hopefully no one lost their life but even property damage, plus if I was your insurance carrier and watched this I would send you a warning and notice of cancellation. This is not how you drive safely people! He might had good content but please don't do this in your own truck. You are paid as a driver and it is a full time job behind the seat when you are driving. Please people please.

This guy is great true professional trying to help people get started with Hotshot
