    You Provided a Service - Now Make Sure You Get Paid (S3 E3)

    Play Episode Listen Later Oct 28, 2022 66:15


    Note: This is a rehash of an IAM Learning session from back in February of this year. As we looked through our archives, it struck us that there is so much great content there, and we don't do enough with it. So here it is again. Every day, your company provides services for a fellow IAM Member. In almost every case, your company is paid and everyone is happy. But what happens when you don't get paid? One of the most valuable benefits IAM provides is the Receivable Protection Program - A service designed to resolve delayed or defaulted payments between members. Whether IAM intervenes with another member to get you paid, notifies you of which IAM members are not paying invoices, or reimburses you for bad debts owed by defaulting members, the RPP delivers considerable value – more than $200 per member annually. We encourage you to join us for this interactive conversation to learn more about the program and how we can improve it for each of you. What's going on in your business? What struggles and successes are you having? We want to hear from you. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/iamovers/message

This is a great step and clearly outlines what projects and efforts we are to work on. Carl's comment: A strategic plan, coupled with mission and vision statements, gives a clear guide for what should be done. In short, if we can examine the intended outcome of projects and efforts and see how they support the plan and statements. If they do not, we really need to rethink why we are doing it. This seems like a simple and straightforward line of reasoning, and it is, but getting to this place took a long time and a lot of effort, starting with an evaluation of why we are here and what values we want to uphold and inculcate to others in the industry.

    Dan Bradley talks about various government and military issues, including: J9 will continue the weekly Peak Season calls into November, due to the disruptions caused by COVID-19. DoD continues to predict capacity demands above the three-year average into the Fall. J9 reports that CSS reports are down. IAM has heard that some customers have had trouble submitting their surveys, and this could be why. The good side is that CSS scores are higher than normal. IAM submitted proposed business rules to J9, gathered from industry. J9 recently released a spacial solicitation for traffic to and from Okinawa, Hawaii, and Spain, intending to supply those routes to a single-source provider. IAM is standing up an effort to handle the needs of the U.S. Domestic Asset-Based movers. You will hear more about DAB in the future and IAM already has quite a bit of programming for this group at the Virtual Annual Meeting Oct. 21-23. The Virtual Annual Meeting early adopter discount has been extended through Sept. 7. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/iamovers/message
