How to Start & Grow a Profitable Trucking Business Without Owning a Truck | Johnique Taylor

Most people think getting into trucking means buying a truck, finding loads and driving. Johnique Taylor—the "Queen of Trucking"—says that's one of the biggest misconceptions about the industry. With 28 years of experience across trucking, logistics, supply chain, driving, dispatching, training and entrepreneurship, Johnique explains why many new trucking businesses fail, why buying equipment shouldn't necessarily be your first move, and how entrepreneurs can create multiple streams of income within the trucking ecosystem. Curtis and Johnique discuss the difference between owning a truck and building a trucking business, controlling overhead, maintaining access to capital, surviving changing freight markets, and creating additional revenue from assets already inside your business. Johnique also shares how she turned trucks into mobile advertising platforms and why collaboration with professionals outside the trucking industry creates additional opportunities for trucking entrepreneurs.
