The logistics and supply chain industry has long relied primarily on networking and word of mouth to generate business. While these methods work very well, they are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to marketing for trucking.

If you would like to expand your trucking business, and/or improve your driver recruiting program, here are some suggestions for improving your trucking marketing results.

Make sure your branding delivers

Lackluster branding won’t deliver the message about the benefits you offer your customers, and will result in lackluster sales. If you specialize in logistics for a particular industry or geographical area, or offer unique trucking services, your branding ought to reflect that. If it doesn’t, consider hiring a trucking marketing firm to refresh your brand into something that really stands out and differentiates you from all other trucking companies. Then, incorporate your new branding into all aspects of your marketing, including web design, employee uniforms and, of course, on the most visible aspect of your business — your trucks!

Establish yourself as a leader in your industry

People naturally gravitate toward leaders as people they can trust to do well. You can leverage this tendency in your marketing by contributing thought leadership articles to logistics industry magazines and blogs, and by publishing your own blog and promoting on social media. It is also a good idea to submit press releases whenever you have a newsworthy event, and to seek speaking opportunities in the business community. If the thought of writing your own articles and speeches intimidates you, don’t worry — a good trucking marketing agency can do the heavy driving so all you have to do is sit back and enjoy the ride.
