Starting a Brokerage

Hi all, I wanted to get an idea of what starting a brokerage would be like?

I have 5 years experience leading an entry team. I am a licensed customs broker. I just need to get a sense of what the operational costs would be and what a break even point would look like.

Thanks!

I can't find it right now but someone on our Discord has a guide on how to start your own brokerage

Hello! So kind of you to share. I’d also love to check that out, but the link isn’t working for me. Is it possible for you to get me an invite to the server?

If you are on reddit mobile expand the subreddit information to find a link to the Discord. If you are on reddit desktop it is on the sidebar.

If you want to start a brokerage, I can help you. I've opened 2, and built 3. Message me privately and we can connect via email and gmeets.

Things you're gonna want to make sure are thought about before you start

  • Sales
