We currently have an application used by the trucking industry to find freight to move. Now, the trucker does a search around Boston (for example) and gets 100 loads returned. They start at the first and call the company who has the freight, the company may say, sorry, someone just booked that so they go to the next number and call. It might take them 3-4 calls to find one that's still available. <div>
<br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>What I want to do is allow the trucker to click a check box by several loads and just click a button...it calls the first person and the system asks if its available, if yes it asks if he wants to hear the truckers credentials, if yes, it reads them and then asks if he wants to talk to the trucker and if so calls the trucker to connect the two. If the load is take then the system asks if he wants it removed from our system. If it's taken or he doesn't want to talk to the trucker, it just goes to the next number to call. In theory the trucker can click x rows and just sit back back and know when he gets a call the system has found an available load that he is approved by the broker to take.</div>
