Summary

DAT freight & analytics reached out for some potential partnership opportunities with TN’H. They have a great legacy and are definitely the standard in the space. I told them for us to get behind any product or resource “you have to feed the hustle fam first”! No problem, they said. They connected me with Dean Croke, their principal data analyst who was able to give some great insights on the current trends in the market. We had a short impromptu conversation. Let me know what y’all think. I asked Dean if he would come on the show and give us updates periodically?! I loved the insights and I hope you will find them useful as well. Also DAT is offering some discounts to sign up to their load board services through our show. If you want to get a free month of DAT load boards check out there links below.
