New Carrier Onboarding Checklist for Dispatchers
The carriers who stick with a dispatcher long-term almost always had a clear start — fee, terms, and expectations settled before the first load, not negotiated mid-conversation while a truck is already waiting on a rate.
This checklist is what to nail down in that first conversation. A platform like Dispatch Xchange's Directory makes finding new carrier clients easier than cold outreach, and its complimentary agreement templates give you a starting point instead of drafting one from scratch — though any agreement should be reviewed for your specific business before you rely on it.
