Episode 50: How You Can Survive and Thrive When Rates are Down

AUGUST 13, 2019

In this episode, Larry and I discuss how Blue Ribbon manages to survive and grow in a market where rates are down. With the news breaking nearly every week that another trucking firm has closed its doors and left drivers out of work, how is it that we are growing our fleet and looking for new opportunities? The answer lies in the foundation of the company and the decision that are made when we acquire equipment and how we operate it. We also discuss what to do when you want to get your own truck and the perils of lease/purchase contracts.
