Freight Brokerage Business Plan

March 3, 2023 By JamesCall Leave a Comment


Freight Brokerage Business Plan


Silicon Freight Brokers (SFB) is a specialized freight broker service located in Hood River, OR. Steve Tookarefol is the founder of the Oregon C Corporation. SFB&#8217’s mission is to become the most trusted silicon chip freight broker by increasing their client base of 20% each year.


Freight brokers and Silicon Chips

The freight broker industry acts as the middleman in the shipping sector. They are also known third-party transport providers. Freight brokers connect customers with trucking companies and shippers. They are indispensable in moving goods around the country, as there are hundreds of shippers providing thousands of different services. With one-stop shop, the freight brokers make it easy for you to find a shipper.

The Silicon chip industry is a rapidly expanding industry that has played a significant role in the rapid growth of the Internet. Silicon chips are the basis of all types of computers as well as hand held devices such as cell phones, PDAs, even watches and some household appliances.

SFB will be the sole agent for the shipment and management of silicon chips. Silicon chips are an unusual cargo that requires special attention. The chips require a narrow range of temperatures and humidity that must be maintained. Other than these unique requirements, silicon chip companies also have other needs. SFB will soon be the leading broker of chips and gain market share by focusing on silicon chips.

Two distinct customers comprise the chip industry: purchasers and manufacturers. Although the manufacturers are located in the USA, some produce in the USA while others outsource production to overseas countries and then import them. The chip purchasers are primarily Intel, IBM, and Motorola.


Management

SFB is managed and led by Steve Tookarefol. Steve has over 10 years’ experience working in freight for different companies. Steve’s work experience is what allowed him to pinpoint the market needs and then meet them. SFB has coupled Steve’s in-depth trucking/ freight brokerage knowledge and insight with his wife’s expertise in the silicon chip industry. Wendy has been working with Intel and other companies for the last seven year as an industry consultant.

SFB&#8217’s solid business model is projected to reach profitability by the sixth month. SFB will penetrate the market by remaining laser-focused in their market niche and fully utilizing their management team.

1.1 Objectives

Silicon Freight Brokers objectives from the first three years of operation include:

  • To build a service-based business whose number one goal is to exceed customer expectations.
  • Silicon Freight Brokers must be used in at most four of the top 10 producers of silicon chips, as identified in Silicon Industry Journal.
  • Superior performance and word-of-mouth referrals will help us increase our client base by 20% each year.
  • To develop a sustainable, profitable, start-up business.

1.2 Mission

Silicon Freight Brokers’ mission is to deliver the best possible shipping experience for customers. We exist to acquire and retain customers. This maxim will guide everything else. Our services will exceed our customers’ expectations.

Real Estate Brokerage Business Plan

March 3, 2023 By JamesCall Leave a Comment


Real Estate Brokerage Business Plan


RJ Wagner & Associates Realty, Inc., a Texas S corporation, is domiciled in Texas. Regina Wagner, a principal investor and stockholder, is the corporation’s capital. Regina Wagner is a licensed agent and the sponsoring brokers for this business. This licensed broker will sponsor independent contractors licensed real estate agents in Texas. The corporation will provide real estate services.

RJ Wagner & Associates Realty, Inc., opens its doors to the public in July. The office is in Houston, Texas (Champions Area), in the Greenwood Square Shopping Center. It provides services to the Metropolitan Houston residents with higher incomes.

The broker of this firm is a strong representative of trustworthiness and reputation. He has published a real estate book, as well as real estate organizational programs that are available in bookstores and superstores of the Dallas Association of Realtors. For the past year novice licensed agents have enjoyed the organizational tools and guidance offered in the book Texas Real Estate/The Mobile Mentor.

1.1 Objectives

Our primary objectives are:

  • Be a profit-making organization that allows us to take advantage of any other real estate investment opportunities that become available.
  • Recruitment and hiring of self-motivated and successful sales professionals.
  • Minimum 15 sales people must be kept in your office.
  • Create a solid corporate image in the specific target market.
  • To establish good working relationships and begin working as a team, promoting communication and suggestions from all participants.
  • In our third year, or sooner, we aim to be the Champion’s top brokerage firm.
  • In just 12 months, you can see a positive ROI.

We believe that the professionalism of the corporation’s manager and its sales associates will allow us to reach the above-mentioned targets. Individuals gaining a real estate license leave school with the knowledge of the real estate laws and procedures. High turnover is possible because agents don’t receive training beyond what the law and regulations require. Once an agent has obtained a license, the only way they can obtain the training required for the sales and marketing profession is to get it. This training is available at a high price to the agent. Most agents cannot afford the training required to start their career. In addition, the average real estate agent’s earnings are very low compared to the industry.

The office environment we will be providing will be productively arranged yet inviting to the agent as well as the client. Every day there will be an office location with a daily routine/schedule for marketing. Agents will have the chance to be guided every day through a marketing plan in order to win clients. They can choose to follow the training and guidelines provided, or they could follow their daily routines. We will provide guidance and stability to help the new agents make more as real estate agents.

Our company has an agent who sets a goal to get one buyer and one seller each month. On average, $150,000 per sale, this would bring in $6,750 per months. Twelve months equals $81,000. Regina’s goal in being a broker is help each agent to achieve this goal.

This would result in a profit of $2,250 per months X 12 month = $27,000 for the entire year X 15, agents = $405,000. This includes sales from active brokers. These commissions would amount to $9,000 each (100%) to this corporation. The broker will receive a salary from the corporation.

1.2 Mission

This plan is intended to be a guide for starting and running a new company. It also serves as a foundation for a separate, more detailed marketing plan. The following is a summary.

  • RJ Wagner & Associates Realty, Inc. has three objectives: to make a profit, to grow at a challenging but manageable pace, and to adhere to the Texas Real Estate Commission’s ethical codes.
  • RJ Wagner & Associates Realty, Inc.’s first mission is to recruit Texas real-estate agents.

The agents choosing this firm will receive top commission allowing them more financial advantage for advertising in order to gain more business.

  • Through professional and personal help, we will continue to assist homeowners selling their homes as well homebuyers looking to buy the right home. Assuring customers’ best interests is always our priority.
  • RJ Wagner & Associates Realty, Inc.’s keys to success are networking, marketing, customer service, and generating repeat business.
  • We want to build a partnership with our clients, staff members and title companies that respects the goals and interests of all parties.
  • The local market for this business, while not new, is wide open for new and expanding brokerage firms.
  • An initial financial analysis of the viability and potential results of this venture showed great promise. Multiple sources confirm that the real-estate business is very profitable in today’s fast-paced world.
  • While doing so, the company will continue to build its position in the target area by continuing to provide superior customer services to clients and sales associates.

    As you can see, the plan is projected to grow rapidly as more agents join and generate high net profits over three years. This plan, along with a detailed marketing plan, will make RJ Wagner & Associates Realty, Inc. a lucrative venture for both the owner and the contracting agents.
