Think government regulations are just a drain on your finances? Think again. Today, savvy fleets are using government regulations such as the hours-of-service rules to their advantage — but how?

Make Money: Maximize Profits & Increase Carrier Efficiencies,” Seidl will offer advice from his 20-plus year career on how fleets can not only take advantage of regulations but reduce expenses through improved management practices.The webinar is presented by Arrive Logistics, Reliance Partners, and FreightWaves.

The primary focus of this webinar will narrow in on ways fleets can reduce costs and increase revenue through improved management of the everyday regulation drivers all fleets face. These regulations include hours-of-service rules, personal conveyance and ELD exemptions as well as ways to manage CSA scores, insurance costs, payroll expenses, vehicle maintenance and fuel costs.
