How about a freight forwarder? I'm just an intern and I don't know much about this business. Can an experienced person give your opinion? Thank you. . .

On the second floor, I'm a freight forwarder. I'm so tired. The main reason is not how many things you have done, but the problems that appear in the middle. Customers always call to ask, urge and scold, which is enough for you. Many people say that being a freight forwarder is the cheapest and most tiring, stressful, troublesome and quick to die; Forwarding companies are intermediaries, mostly shell companies, without strength and ability to deal with problems.

Freight forwarders are basically unemployed, without cars, boats, planes and the right to declare and apply for inspection; Transportation and related businesses are all transferred to shipping companies, airlines, China Railway, customs brokers, trailer companies and even other freight forwarders. Ha ha ha, so the forwarder can do anything, just change hands. Just find an agent. The key is to find a good agent, otherwise it will be miserable. What happens in the transportation process is beyond the control of the freight forwarder himself, and problems often occur;

In actual business, it is normal for two freight forwarders to handle it; Just like the customer gives the goods to my A freight forwarder, my A freight forwarder transfers them to B freight forwarder, and B freight forwarder transfers them to the shipping company for real transportation; Occasionally handle three or four freight forwarders; The middle process is very long, as you can imagine; Of course, many freight forwarders still cooperate directly with shipping companies and airlines;

Many factories and trading companies have a bad attitude towards freight forwarders, because they think that many freight forwarders can find them at will and are ready to start swearing. What they hate most is asking for a lot of goods. Find a dozen freight forwarders to compare prices with you, and you will earn that poor 30 yuan. He also said it was expensive, damn it; Especially trading companies, are so cheap that they think they have big goods.

If you are a novice in this industry, don't do it. The key is that freight forwarding companies are basically treated like birds. Although I run my own business, my basic treatment and welfare are very poor. I'm talking about the big picture. You can measure it yourself.
