Our Startup Story as told by Robert Meehan

A reflection

One afternoon while coaching my daughter’s travel softball team, I received a call. The game was in its eighth inning and the team was trailing 6-5. Still, I had to take the call – It was my duty as trucking company business owner and a CDL class truck driver who had over 20 years in the Logistics Industry. Next thing I know, I found myself backing up one of our 53-foot tractor-trailers at 11pm. While waiting for the red dock light to turn green, I asked myself one question “How did this happen?”

Understanding the problem

After I arrived, the manager explained to me that “our regular freight broker had bailed on us at the last-minute, and they weren’t upfront about it.” He then went on to explain that “the leading 3PL broker at the time told him that the truck didn’t show up, and the driver called giving a conflicting excuse.”

The opportunity

The incident inspired me to work closely with the shipping manager to learn more about the pains, struggles, bottlenecks, processes, volume, and issues associated with distribution. I then went on to develop an agile, simple and systematic solution that was easily scalable to multiple plants across the country. The result was a system that delivered superior service and satisfaction to both shipper and carrier.

Let’s do it

For two years I worked on tailoring and tweaking our system until I perfected it. All the while running a trucking company, coaching and spending time with my family. Throughout the entire building process of our solution, I kept the vision of bringing a more complete and customer-centric solution to the billion-dollar logistics industry. In 2012 the vision became a reality, Direct Traffic Solutions was born.
