Carriers: Get Started with the Blink Private Load Board
The Private Load Board is a new feature that gives you direct access to quote requests from your customers. When shippers post jobs on their private load board, you'll be notified and can submit competitive quotes, helping you win more business and fill your capacity.
How It Works
The Private Load Board operates through a simple four-step process:
- Your customer creates a quote request on their Blink account
- You receive a notification that a new quote request is available
- You submit your quote with your pricing and service details
- Your customer accepts your quote, which automatically creates a regular booking and skips the negotiation phase
Once accepted, the booking follows your normal workflow – you can allocate it to drivers, manage collection and delivery, and complete the job as usual.
Key Benefits
- More opportunities: See all available jobs from your customers in one place
- Faster process: Skip negotiation when your quote is accepted
- Better visibility: Get notified immediately when new quote requests are posted
- Competitive advantage: Respond quickly to secure more work
What You Need to Get Started
Important: The Private Load Board only works with customers who are on the Blink platform.
If your customers aren't yet using Blink, we can help you get them set up so they can:
- Post quote requests directly to you
- Manage their transport jobs more efficiently
- Collaborate with you seamlessly on the same platform
