Partners in Business: Owner-operator Business Performance Benchmarking and Q&A with Overdrive and ATBS

The long-running Partners in Business program is a coproduction of Overdrive magazine and the owner-operator business consultants and tax specialists at ATBS. The owner-op business-focused program here launches the 2022 update of its in-depth business manual and returns live for a presentation and Q&A with ATBS Vice President Mike Hosted and Overdrive Extra contributor and owner-op coach Gary Buchs. Hosted will present short- and long-term business trends with year-end 2021 revenue, cost and income performance derived from ATBS owner-operator clientele in independent and leased dry van, refrigerated and flatbed segments. The numbers provide benchmarks against which to measure your operation, also providing a springboard for discussion of business best practices – never more useful in a time of both rising rates and big inflationary pressures on costs all around. Maintaining the delicate balance between the two will be key to continued success.
