Using the Profit Analyzer

Evaluating a Load Selection for Your Client

To properly evaluate a load selection for your Clients, you will need your current zipcode location. Follow these steps:

  1. Estimate Mileage:
    • Calculate the estimated miles from your current zipcode location to the pickup zipcode location.
    • Add the miles from the pickup zipcode location to the delivery zipcode location.
    • This total is the estimated mileage you will need to complete the load.
  2. Input Details into the Profit Analyzer:
    • Enter the Load Rate.
    • Enter the Estimated Miles.
    • Enter the Current Fuel Price.
    • Click the update button.

The Profit Analyzer will provide a breakdown of your Cost Per Mile (CPM), the Fuel Usage Loss/Gain Status, and the Recommended (R)Rate.

Dispatcher Objectives:

  • Beat the (R)Rate: you will need to negotiate for a Load Rate that is better or as close as possible to the Recommended (R)Rate for you.
  • Monitor Load Submissions: Your clients will use the Carriers Dispatch app to submit each completed load.
  • Evaluate Business Direction: Load submissions will generate a Profitability Evaluation Status (PES) report, indicating the business’s direction.
    • A Negative PES indicates you are accumulating too many losses.
    • A Positive PES indicates you are generating profits.

Your Goal as a Dispatcher:

To book more loads that help you achieve and maintain a positive PES. My role is crucial in ensuring your success and profitability in the trucking industry.
