Mike's Trucking Service
Mike’s Trucking Service (Mike's Trucking) is a Dallas, Texas-based trucking company whose
mission is to become one of the largest trucking companies servicing the United States. The
company’s strategy is to consolidate its excellent customer and client service by making timely
deliveries, hiring the best drivers, and having a competitive pricing structure. Mike’s Trucking
plans to acquire the best equipment for the job.
Mike’s Trucking will focus mainly on the food industry companies in the United States.
However, in the future the company plans to diversify into other industries. In addition, the
company will provide its services to the following companies: supply companies, lumberyards,
and many other potential companies that use hauling for their cargo.
Companies with whom we compete are Dynasty, Venture, Ace, and ACME. We have a
competitive advantage, however, because of our reputation in the industry and competitive
pricing of services.
The company is seeking financing in the amount of $125,000 for the purpose of financing the
acquisition of trucks, equipment, and funding operating expenses. Projected revenues for 2000
to 2002 are $100,000, $150,000, and $200,000, respectively.
1.1 Mission

States.

Smith, president and CEO, is the majority owner. He has been in the trucking business for 15
years.

3.0 Services
The trucking industry provides transportation services for persons or companies looking to
haul heavy things. Mike's Trucking enables someone to lease a truck, of any size, for any
project that needs hauling. We will provide this service to the whole of the Dallas area, and
hope to expand from this base area within the first five years of operation.
This service is provided on two bases: for-hire and private carriers. Of these two segments,
Mike's Trucking will concentrate on the for-hire carriers, and, more specifically, the truckload
(TL) and less-than-truckload (LTL) segments. The services offered, and the markets being
targeted, are discussed throughout the following section.
Mike's Trucking has an opportunity to entrench its competitive position in the regional
transportation market by selectively focusing its target market on the food industry. The
company has already had experience in servicing such clients and it believes that there is a
growing demand for reliable transportation solutions in this customer segment.
Page 3
Mike's Trucking Service
There are several potential customer segments that we will provide our transportation services
to. Major customer segments include the food industry, PC and semiconductor manufacturers,
and retailers. The chart and table below outline the current market size and growth estimates
for these customer segments in Texas.
Large established companies in the afore-mentioned segments (especially in the food industry)
have their own truck fleets, while smaller players outsource the transportation function. The
latter vary in the scale of their operations, but have a steady demand for reliable
transportation solutions. We will actively solicit such customers.

Mike's Trucking will focus its marketing budget on a selected industry niche. A narrow-served
market focus will help strengthen the company's reputation of a reliable transportation
services provider and will generate favorable referrals.
The major customer segment the company is focusing on is the food industry. Companies in
this segment have varying needs, and Mike's Trucking has already gained valuable experience
serving such customers. The company management believes that by increasing its truck fleet
it can capture additional clients and provide better service to existing clients.
Standard & Poor’s estimates that the U.S. commercial freight transportation market had
aggregate revenues of $436 billion in 1998. In other words, five cents of every dollar of U.S.
gross domestic product that year was spent on transportation.
Industry trends
While a driver shortage continues to plague the TL sector, the LTL carriers have adapted to
changing market conditions in order to capitalize on growth opportunities. Intermodal shippers
also stand to benefit from market trends. And the evolution of electronic commerce stands to
intensify competition among all carriers.
Based on value of service, trucking (excluding warehousing and logistics) accounted for 79%,
or some $344 billion, of U.S. commercial freight revenues in 1998, but only 45% of total ton
miles. This is because products transported by truck tend to be lightweight, manufactured
goods that move short distances, rather than the heavy, long haul, bulk commodities that
travel by rail and barge.
Motor carriers specialize in higher-value freight that moves 750 miles or less and for which
delivery is required within three days. Some 36% of truck freight (measured by shipping cost)
never crosses state lines. Examples of this type of freight are food and consumer staples
delivered locally, and manufactured goods shipped between commercial establishments or
delivered to consumers or retail outlets.
Page 5
Mike's Trucking Service
Truckers have the largest share of the freight market. Unlike railroads, pipelines, or water
carriers, they don’t face geographic limits caused by physical constraints, and can offer door-
to-door service. They also pay relatively little to use the nation’s highway system. Railroads,
by contrast, must build, maintain, and police their rights-of-way.
The trucking industry consists of two broad segments: private and for hire. In turn, for-hire
truckers fall into two broad categories: truckload and less-than-truckload carriers.
Trucking
With some $344 billion in 1998 revenues, the trucking (or motor carrier) business claimed
79% of the U.S. commercial freight transportation market. This total was divided among two
sectors: private carriage and for hire.
Sources: Standard & Poor's, Data Resources, Inc., and Cass Information Systems.
Private carriers
Although private carriers comprise the largest component of the motor-carrier industry,
financial information isn’t available for them. However, the industry is estimated to provide
services valued at some $200 billion annually (or 58% of motor carrier revenues in 1998).
The American Trucking Association (ATA) estimates that there are more than three million
trucks operated by private fleets transporting 3.5 billion tons of freight annually.
For-hire carriers
The for-hire category generated $144 billion in 1998, or 42% of the industry total. Of that
Page 6
Mike's Trucking Service
$144 billion, some $105 billion (73% of the sector’s business) came from truckload shipments,
and $39 billion (27%) was from less-than-truckload and package/express delivery.
• Truckload (TL). The national for-hire truckload segment had total revenues of $65
billion in 1998. The TL sector has historically been mostly privately owned, with the
exception of the top ten publicly-owned companies (For this reason, we focused on the
LTL sector in this survey). Schneider National Carriers was the largest TL operator, with
revenues of $2.8 billion in 1998, followed by J.B. Hunt Transport Services ($1.8 billion),
and the Landstar family of truckload-carriers ($1.3 billion). Of the 50,000 truck load
carriers, perhaps 95% had annual revenues of less than $1 million.
The largest national LTL carrier was Roadway Express Inc., with $2.32 billion in LTL
revenues in 1998; the company’s total revenue of $2.55 billion includes TL freight.
Yellow Freight System (a unit of Yellow Corporation) was close behind, with $2.25
billion (out of $2.46 billion total). Consolidated Freightways Corporation was third, with
$1.95 billion in LTL revenues.
Although there are major players in each of the commercial carrier market segments, the
market remains highly fragmented. According to the Dallas Yellow Pages, there are numerous
companies providing different kinds of the trucking services. Major competitors for Mike's
Trucking are those companies who have comparable truck fleets and are also targeting the
food industry.
Market research shows that customers in the food industry are price sensitive, and they value
on-time deliveries, special handling capabilities, and less-than-truckload orders. Customer
referrals and carrier's reputation are believed to strongly influence the buying decision.
4.3.3 Risks
The company recognizes that it is subject to both market and industry risks. The two primary
risks to the company are:
• Industry concentration risk. The company is mainly focused on food industry
businesses in the United States. This position is favorable since the industry is fairly
stable. Any slow down in the food production would have negative repercussions for
Mike’s Trucking. To mitigate this risk, the company is looking at diversifying its trucking
business to include other industries as well.
• Operational risk. Mike’s Trucking recognizes the fact that there is an inherent risk in
transporting cargo. Any damage to cargo may undermine the profitable of the
company. To reduce this risk, the company maintains all necessary insurance.
Page 7
Mike's Trucking Service
5.0 Strategy
The strategy of Mike's Trucking is to consolidate its good customer and client service by
making timely deliveries, hiring the best drivers and having a competitive pricing structure.
The company’s goal in the next year is to become an independently-run business entity
without having any contracted services. We would like to fully manage our trucking operation,
from hiring drivers to sourcing business. The company’s goal within the next five years is to
operate a full-service trucking business with a fleet of trucks, "hot-shot" trucks, and minifloat
loads. Mike’s Trucking would like to be in a position to handle any job available at this stage.
Our major competitive advantage is the vast industry experience and solid reputation of its
owner, Mike Smith. His company is also well known among its clients for going that extra mile
in the customer-service department.
Page 8
Mike's Trucking Service
We markets our services as solutions to the many companies requiring cargo to be transported
promptly and efficiently. The company's future marketing plans will be nationwide,
emphasizing haulage capabilities for any cargo. The overall marketing plan for services is
based on the following fundamentals:
• The segment of the market(s) planned to reach.
• Distribution channels planned to reach market segments: television, radio, sales
associates, and mailings.
• Share of the market expected to capture over a fixed period of time.
5.3.1 Pricing
At the time of this writing, Mike’s Trucking has a lease arrangement with various companies.
The company’s pricing is based on miles per thousands of pounds of cargo transported. We will
be able charge competitive rates, as we have minimal overhead compared to our competition.
The table below sketches out the pricing structure; for a key to this table please see asterisks
at the bottom of the page.

** Types of trucks.
Incentives. As an extra incentive for customers and potential customers to remember the
name, Mike's Trucking plans to distribute coffee mugs, T-shirts, pens, and other advertising
specialties with the company logo.
Brochures. The objective of a brochure is to portray the company's goals and products as an
attractive functionality. Mike’s Trucking will develop three brochures: one to be used to
promote sales, one to announce the product in a new market, and the third to recruit sales
associates.
The company will base its sales strategy on increasing the sales from its existing customers,
and also to target new businesses. For the latter purpose, we will employ a part-time sales
representative.
A customer survey has shown that currently Mike's Trucking is losing sales from its existing
clients because the company cannot provide certain types of services. The customers have
also shown interest in giving more business to Mike's Trucking once the company increases its
truck fleet to handle special orders. Once the new trucks are purchased, we will notify our
clientele of the new services and pitch our services to the new businesses. We will further
continue our policy of only accepting jobs which can be delivered with high customer
satisfaction. Orders that require outsourcing will be gradually eliminated so that we can
provide total quality control over the services we render.

The company's management is minimal in order to reduce the overhead. Mike Smith, the
company owner and president, makes all executive decisions. At the moment, he also
generates most of the sales leads. Joan Rose works as an executive secretary who answers
phone inquiries and maintains the customer database. A part-time sales representative will be
hired to solicit new business once the company acquires new trucks. In the years 2001-2002,
the administrative staff is planned to increase in order to handle the higher sales volume. In
the future, a sales manager will be hired to allow Mr. Smith more time to dedicate himself to
company management.
