Welcome to another exciting week because today, we have Greg Finnerty of Concept Logistics to share his extensive background of over two decades in the transportation business! Greg talks about maintaining work-life balance, balancing growth with company values, business development through credible relationships, the crucial role of technology in freight brokerage, and the significance of direct communication in cultivating trust with customers and carriers!   About Greg Finnerty As Vice President of Operations at Concept Logistics, I focus on driving innovation while maintaining the core values of relationships and trust in the freight brokerage industry. With over 30 years of industry experience, our team is committed to delivering reliable and personalized logistics solutions. We streamline operations by integrating cutting-edge technology such as Tai TMS and other tech partners, enabling our reps to shift from transactional processes to building deeper, more meaningful relationships with carriers. Our goal is not just automation, but elevation—creating an efficient, relationship-driven environment where technology supports, but never replaces the human element. At Concept, we believe in leveraging data-driven insights to optimize capacity allocation, while maintaining compliance and operational integrity. This balance between innovation and strong personal connections enables us to provide differentiated service and sustained growth for our carriers and shippers.   Connect with Greg Website: https://conceptlogistics.com/  Email: gfinnerty@conceptintl.com  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/greg-finnerty-9942a52b/   📊📉 Don’t miss out on the latest market trends by subscribing to your TOP Transportation Morning Show! 🌎 🎬🎯 #TheFreightCoach Morning Show is LIVE every weekday at 10:30 AM CST to break down transportation industry headlines!
