1551. #TFCP - Intermodal Freight Strategy & Rail Network Logistics!

I am thrilled to welcome Shelli Austin from InTek Logistics to the show today to break down her unique career pivot from the theater into the freight industry.

We get straight to the heavy-hitting topics, unpacking the true synergy between intermodal freight and truckload logistics and why shippers need to treat intermodal as a consistent, long-term supply chain strategy rather than a temporary backup plan when truck rates skyrocket.

Shelli gives us a look at the complexities of managing drayage capacity, navigating the unrealistic shipping expectations driven by the Amazon effect, and why building genuine, year-round loyalty with railroads pays massive dividends for your network.

If you want to optimize your freight management and build a sustainable shipping operation, you need to hear this episode!
