Anyone try independent owner operator courier life? Trying to find some work now but not getting much traction.

Need to start making up some capital for a business launch.

What else can I do with this for now?

Confused.

Sounds like a pretty big investment to NOT have a plan of any kind.

Super reckless

But this the best bet. Or link with one of those brokers/agencies that bid on loads, won’t make a lot at the beginning but pick up and deliver carefully and in time you’ll build trust and can cut the middle man out with the customer.

Drive around Miami looking for girls...pick them up....do dirty things with them....drop them off at random place. Repeat

in all seriousness, u should contact a nearby flower shops and workout better local delivery deal w/ them or something. Independent dental services use these type of things for cleanings at schools u could rent it out to them, blood drives, landscaping, smuggling, etc. Endless things u could do w/ it. You just gotta reach out.

Rent it out. Or drive for yourself.

my brother does the same and now has 3 vans, all under his LLC. He delivers any and everything, anywhere. Prescriptions, blood, and organs seem to be money makers these days. My brother got all his from Ford credit.

Load it up full of fruit and get to slaggin’ on the corner.

Decorate/advertise once you’re successful

How much cash to use it overnight, no questions?

Paint it black and paint “FBI Surveillance” on the side and park in front of random houses and corner stores.

Throw a air mattress in there and put on Airbnb.
