Why Big Brokerages Are Losing To Independent Agents

Описание: Big brokerages are losing ground in today’s freight market — and it’s not because they forgot how to move freight.

In this video, I explain why independent agents are outperforming large brokerages, how the freight market has shifted, and what this means for anyone thinking about building a freight business in 2026.

You’ll learn:
• Why speed matters more than size in today’s market
• How independent agents outperform big brokerage models
• The difference between volume-driven vs margin-driven brokerage
• Why ownership of relationships is becoming more valuable than scale
• How overhead and bureaucracy are hurting large firms
• What this shift means for new and aspiring freight brokers

This isn’t about attacking big companies — it’s about understanding how the business model is evolving and where real opportunity exists for professionals who adapt.

Some people try to build a freight brokerage through trial and error.

Others focus on structure, systems, and risk reduction from day one.
