Why We Serve

“Our mission is to help companies under $150 million in gross revenues use logistics as a competitive advantage to compete against larger competitors and maximize profit. “

– Mike Rogers, 4WL Consulting

1. Clients have been shown they can have an average 9-22% additional profit.

Unlike most salespeople calling on you promising “cheaper rates”, and then coming up with all kinds of empty promises, Trans$aver is not selling anything! It is an analysis that benchmarks your current rates against the market. 72% of the Clients we have worked with have uncovered blind spots that revealed 9-22% additional profit. For the other 28% of Clients, they were able to confirm their current logistics strategy is working and did not have to waste time with someone selling something before really understanding if there was an opportunity.

2. Trans$aver™ is easy to perform, 3 simple steps that require 2-27 minute** meetings.

“Time is Money” is as true today as it ever was. As a busy executive, being pulled in many directions, you want to make sure your using your time wisely. Could adding an additional $9682 monthly to your bottom line (like one of my Clients did) be a good ROI on 54 minutes?

That is why I created Trans$aver to be an efficient system to get you important information that improves your bottom line. Once we mutually agree that Trans$aver is right for you, we have a 27-minute** conversation to dig a little deeper into your current logistics strategy. Then we collect some data and go to work analyzing the numbers and putting together our findings. Last, we get together for another 27 minutes** to discuss the findings and “show you the money”! It’s that simple, that easy. **(unless you have a lot of questions)

3. Experienced veteran with 40+ years’ experience in logistics working with you.
Since Jimmy Carter was in office I’ve been in shipping. (Don’t remind me of the math.)
Back then there were just 200 freight brokers. Today, there are 12,000+ (and they all have your phone number, don’t they?)

You and I know that just buying a computer, internet connection and a list of carriers doesn’t make one a logistics expert.

With my help, my clients have weathered the gas lines of 1979, trucking deregulation that started in the 80’s, the dotcom debacle in early 2000’s, and the $147/barrel oil spike of 2008.

While these stats may help you win a round of Jeopardy, it won’t help you with your business.

In keeping with my vision of leveling the playing field for small/medium size businesses, I created the Trans$aver™ analysis to offer c-level executives or managers an assessment of the current logistics strategies and solutions they can use to improve profits 9-22% and create a better customer experience.

One Office Furniture Manufacturer I worked with achieved annualized savings of 13.71% or in dollars, $119,434 on a spend of $1,252,704.

4. We have taken the risk out of getting a Trans$aver™ analysis.
Most companies, especially large corporations pay thousands of dollars to get their transportation spend benchmarked against market rates by high priced consultants. Since we created a simple, streamlined process for doing an assessment, your company can qualify for a complementary Trans$aver™ analysis, just by answering a few simple questions.
5. You will have confidence in areas to improve your current logistics spend strategy.
Let’s face it, logistics is a moving target and probably not a core competency of your business. It’s probably a line item expense that only gets your attention when it starts to increase. When you have a Trans$aver analysis done on your logistics spend, you will have the confidence knowing that you now have the information that your logistics spend is optimized but have the tools to keep it running at peak levels.
6. Just like your lawyer or accountant, we take on a fiduciary role in helping you achieve logistics superiority.
Every carrier you deal with may seem like they have your best interest at heart, but let’s face it, they have a huge amount invested in their assets and have a responsibility to the company and shareholders to get the most profit they can out of their customers (that’s you!). Even most 3PL’s operate on the same concept of maximizing the amount of profit they can squeeze from their clients.

I give you an unbiased evaluation with no pressure to use me to implement the findings. Why? Because I have made it my mission, after owning a small business and being squeezed by larger competitors, to help small-medium sized companies get and use the same logistics strategies used by their larger opponents. I am not beholden to any carrier. My purpose is to reveal information that will make a difference on your transportation spend. I feel if I can present you with valuable insights, this will be the start of a mutually beneficial partnership. If you don’t see the value, we will still part as friends.
