The Logistics Master Podcast
Straight talk on the moving industry and Amazon DSP work: the real pain points, and the fixes that hold up in the field.
Twelve conversations
Launching soon. Three episodes on day one.
Two Industries, One Problem
Refrigerator at 12 · father's moving company · JFK on foot · LAX · same mistake over and over · two seats
Insurance Is Not a Strategy
Prevention · Disclosure · Protocol · Paper · the setup · the waiver is not a weapon
The Revolving Door
Turnover bills you twice · who pushes the door · dispatch · training · friction · five pillars
A Flat Rate Is a Bet on Your Crew
Training · what you can't promise · written estimate · know your state rules · crew rate per hour
One Day Is Not Training
Ride-along vs. real training · watch then drive · same van, same territory · pay your trainers
Training Is the Margin
Claims as a cost per move · undertrained crew · tiers · pay people who hold the standard
The Walkthrough Is the Sales Call
Being found = auction · being remembered = monopoly · three-part estimate · reviews · license and coverage
Beating the Heat
Never sort in the hold · sealed cabin · shade · pace · water and electrolytes · heat emergency
Who Drives What, and Where
Rotation costs · completion not time · territories not labels · facts not nicknames · tiers
Run the Crew-Day, Not the Truck
Real labor cost · claims and turnover · three reserves · owner pays last · the giving line
The Mobile Office
Truck is the first handshake · House Rule #1 · clean-van systems · lead by example · health
The Comeback Crew
Shelters · foster care · reentry · mission as a moat · Houseless Initiative · what's next
Field experience, not legal or financial advice.
