Using Quoting Opportunities to Request Access to Shipper Networks

Every quoting opportunity on Evotrux is more than a chance to price a single shipment, it’s also a chance to introduce your company to a shipper and start a longer-term relationship.

When you submit a quote, you can include a short comment letting the shipper know you’re interested in being added to their network. This works especially well when the shipment aligns with your regular lanes, equipment, or operating regions.

Use the comment to briefly explain why you’re a good fit, such as:

• You service the lane regularly

• You have equipment well-suited to the freight

• You’re available for repeat or ongoing work

• You have experience with similar shipments or regions

If the shipper chooses to add you to their network, you’ll gain visibility into more of their future shipments. You will also gain access to see shipments that they post privately which is an added advantage and more exclusive.

Joining networks is dependent on your available network slots and subscription level, subscribers get access to more networks.

Even if your request doesn’t lead to an immediate network add, making it helps shippers recognize your company and can lead to future opportunities.

TL;DR

Every quote is a networking opportunity. Use quote comments to ask for network access and turn one-off quotes into repeat business.
