Freight brokers then search for business, looking for distributors, manufactures, farmers and shippers who use freight broker services to ship their cargo and products through trusted motor carriers. A freight broker job is to approach them and try to identify their budget and delivery needs. Proving yourself as a trustworthy freight broker will create ongoing business with them, as a freight broker all you have is your integrity to market yourself to your clients.
