Will Hopkins, Co-Founder of Blackbox Logistics, joins Will Jenkins to talk about what changed when Blackbox brought in Journey for freight brokerage consulting.

The goal was to get more from that effort through clearer processes, stronger business structure, and better visibility into productivity. Will shares how the work supported Blackbox’s growth from approximately $35–40 million in 2024 revenue to a projected $70–75 million.
