Starting out in the freight business is hard, but starting your own freight brokerage is even more difficult. 

Hosts Kevin Hill and Richie Daigle get some advice from Nate Cross, host of the podcast Freight360, about what it takes to succeed in your own freight business on this episode of Put That Coffee Down.
