AUTO TRANSPORT APPS


Auto Transport Apps, The future, or a nightmare you can't even begin to imagine...

In this day an age one would expect their to be a plethora of car shipping apps similar to uber and lyft except for consumers that need to ship vehicles. While this technology has already arrived already in the freight shipping sector, it has yet come to ours. Companies such as Convoy and Cargomatic have jumped into this both claiming that they are the "uber" of freight shipping. One can only assume this means auto transport is next.


Not So Fast.

Not so easy though, this requires money, not the kind of money that daddy gave you to open your brokerage, real money. The kind of money to hire a real (non commissioned) work staff. Then advertising, lots of it, I'm talking top of google money to get the word out, it would be 10 to 100 times more capital then uber to get the word out. This industry is not so "word of mouth" as ride sharing apps. so you can imagine that we got a while to go but the basic apps and infrastructure is in place already.
