Technology Can Help Your Business Greatly |
|
Trisha Fridrich of The L&W Team, a GNJMA Platinum Sponsor, shares tips on streamlining your paper process. "When I see stacks of paper, I see money wasted — and that’s never a good thing, especially in a pandemic. Many operators talk about implementing technology and know that it could help, but really aren’t sure where to start. It seems … so complicated."
Recently, Trisha also shared a resource for finding CDL drivers: the Arival Tourism Job Board. The listings are FREE (for now). Pop in an ad for your drivers today and see what happens! They are doing a lot to help the industry get back on its feet -- so use those resources! Thanks, Trisha, for bringing this to our attention! Read more about the L&W Team...
