FreightClick.com Launches Recession Busting Freight Shipping And Freight Quote Technology

Milwaukee, WI (PRWEB) May 5, 2009 -- Freight shipping (http://www.freightclick.com) and freight quote (http://www.freightclick.com) company FreightClick.com, has launched "E-quote", an advanced freight transportation management system. For the first time ever, company customers can log into their accounts and gain instant LTL (less-than-truckload) and Truckload freight quotes, and book and manage their shipments online.

FreightClick has come a long way since its humble beginnings in the basement of founder Justin Lubin. "When we started, the carriers wouldn't talk to us about rates. 'Where's the volume?' they'd say to me," explains Mr. Lubin. "I was caught in a catch-22 that many business owners find themselves in. To get the good pricing, you need the volume, but to get the volume, you need the good pricing."

Perseverance paid off for the company. The company worked hard and used creative solutions to build up its volume, eventually gaining solid contracts with freight suppliers with rates that could be imported into an electronic rating system. Years and years of dealing with customers taught FreightClick how to take those rates and build an easy to use customer interface. Now customers can run rates and book shipments in just a few minutes. Customers no longer need to contact their shipping agent to get freight moving.

Notwithstanding the transition to the new E-quote system, the company will continue to strive for customer service excellence. "We built this business without any e-freight technology whatsoever through the power of great service," states Mr. Lubin. "We intend to continue that tradition. Every account is assigned a dedicated personal shipping agent who manages all freight issues having to do with that account. A live human being is always available."

FreightClick's core customers are small to mid-sized businesses who can't afford dedicated logistics people on staff, or are seeking access to discounted freight rates they otherwise could not obtain on their own. FreightClick also serves so called "1-time Shippers" who have a single load to move. The E-quote system is a tremendous value add for all customers. "This technology is a recession buster!" exclaims Mr. Lubin.

The company is very excited about the opportunities afforded by its new freight shipping and freight quote technology, and looks forward to working with customers and freight partners to maximize system benefits.
