Then read on... Between now and 2025, the freight brokerage market is expected to grow by a staggering $41.6 billion. The shipping industry has been going strong for almost 5,000 years, and together with the transportation industry, it has shaped our whole world. Think of a product, and you can bet your bottom dollar that it (and the materials used to make it) has been shipped – often internationally. Shipping and transportation aren't going anywhere – these are industries that will always need workers, and as the market grows, getting in on it comes with the potential for serious money. While many of the most well-known roles in the industry require rigorous training and carefully practiced skills, there's one central role in the whole operation that requires no specialist training or formal education: a freight broker. As a freight broker, you can run a lucrative business that serves as the essential middleman between shipping companies and merchandisers. You can snag yourself a big slice of the shipping pie, simply by becoming that middleman. And while that might sound daunting at the moment, all you need is clear and straightforward guidance to the whole process… and that's exactly what you'll find in this book.
