Hello, Fellow Drivers, My commitment to my readers is to find good information that will assist you in being successful in the trucking business. I found this article recently on a blog page about entrepreneurial thinking. There is one critical difference between the business owner and the entrepreneur. That difference is replication. I will write about this concept in a future blog (get on my RSS feed to make sure you receive the article). One of the things that make a successful trucking business is a well written contract agreement. Most of us know them as “hauling contracts”. Whatever the name, this basic ingredient makes or breaks your relationship with your customers. Enjoy the read and remember to be safe out there!
Writing a Contract Agreement
2010 | Jul 14
One of the critical instruments in any transaction, whether between a vendor and a customer, an employer and employee or even two private parties, is the basic contract agreement. For some business owners however, the basic contract agreement isn’t so basic.
Some feel that using a contract is an unnecessary inconvenience. Some feel it could actually cause them to lose an account or agreement. Others fear committing themselves to a poorly written contract or one that is not legally accurate.
When you get down to the heart of it, a contract is simply “an agreement or understanding between two or more entities to perform services.” It provides, above all else, communication and clarity of accountabilities for the parties involved. It establishes a basis for trusting that each will carry out the terms of the agreement.
Until fairly recently it has been the domain of attorneys and legal departments to draft and write up contracts. However, with the advent of authoring software and legal forms websites, this task has been made simpler, less expensive and more readily available to the small business owner. Here are some pointers to help you write a clear, carefully-worded contract if you choose to create your own.
