In this episode, we’ve got a panel discussion on what makes for a successful freight agent. This conversation was recorded while up in Charlotte attending the annual agent conference hosted by Armstrong Transport Group. Three agents, Tony Orton, Pamela Mitchell, and Rod Clark all join the show to talk about what they looked for in an agent partner, where they struggle the most, and how future freight agents can vet their next partner.
