10/16/23 • 32 min
Since it started in 2017, Bigger Better Movers has grown to more than $120,000 in monthly revenue. Founder Daniel White explains how to start a box truck business with huge growth potential in this episode.
A moving company wasn’t the first business Daniel founded. He started with an insurance agency, which he sold to start a tech company. Two years later, he had to close the doors of his online business. He’ll share the mistakes that led to his tech business’ failure, how he recovered from it, and what he learned in the process that helped him find success with Bigger Better Movers without having prior experience in the moving business.
Finding the right niche is critical to success in any industry. We’ll get Daniel’s advice on choosing the right niche for a box truck company, as well as how he uses Google Ads and other marketing to connect with his target customers. Systems are a big piece of the puzzle for this moving company, too, and you’ll hear how they keep their operations running smoothly so they can provide the exceptional service that keeps their customers coming back.
