2021 Features Highlights
Bid on Loads
Bidding gives carriers the ability to bid on some loads without needing to call in, negotiate, and book the load. Bidding on loads gives carriers more control and allows them to name their price. The load bidding feature is available directly on the 123Loadboard website and mobile app without the need for phone calls or negotiations â a great way to save time and reduce the hassle of booking a load.
Instant Messaging
The messaging feature allows carriers to book loads quicker. Itâs quick, interactive, and secure. Instant messaging is designed specifically to reduce time by using smart automation, so you can spend more of your time being productive.
The communication system on 123Loadboard allows carriers to open a load and start a conversation using the âMessageâ button.
Customize your profile
You can now customize your profile by adding your own profile photo/avatar. The best part is that it takes less than a minute and it’s fun!
An avatar is an image that visually identifies you. It’s associated with your user information, truck posts, creating a level of personalization within the load board community.
Providing a âfaceâ to a name helps establish legitimacy and adds a human element to your profile. Your profile photo can be a photo of you, your truck, your company logo, anything really that identifies you. Add your profile photo
YouTube channel
We updated our help videos and added many more. We are firm believers that providing the best support to our users will allow them to grow their businesses.
Shipping Wars
Pretty cool to see our load board being showcased on A&E’s Shipping Wars. âShipping Warsâ follows independent truckers who make their living hauling unusual items traditional carriers would not touch. In case you missed it, here are some images of our desktop and mobile app being used on the show:
