Trucking Nation Podcast: 9. TruckLogics, Tax Season, & Valentine’s Day

Hey everybody, your favorite Trucking Nation Podcast host is back with episode 9. I love doing this podcast for you every week and as long as you keep on listening, I’ll keep podcasting. This week I thought it was time to try something a little different – doing things the same way gets a bit boring, right?

In this episode:

TruckLogics
I give you a voice-guided tour of my favorite TruckLogics features and what TruckLogics can do for you to manage your business. For all my trucker wives who manage the business for your husbands, TruckLogics is perfect for you. You can customize email templates and invoices with your company logo and look very professional from the beginning of a business transaction, all the way to the final invoice and payment retrieval. Instead of me talking on and on, why don’t you check it out for yourself with a free 30-day trial and let us know what you think.

Trucker Survival Guide: Tax Season
A survival guide can be written for almost anything, and tax season is no exception. You would think it would take a lot to survive tax season, but with my three simple guidelines, you will make it through tax season completely stress-free. Check it out now – Trucker Survival Guide: Tax Season.

BigRigTalk
I was wondering the endless information highway, and came across an interesting YouTube channel named BigRigTalk. Trucker Jerry is part of our Canadian Trucking Nation, and posts videos that answer all kinds of questions a new trucker might have. He has also done some really cool tours of new trucks, as well as, takes you on a tour of his rig. I love seeing how truckers get inventive with storage and cooking in the cab and Jerry has some great ideas. Check him out, learn some stuff, and be entertained. Thank you Jerry for sharing your trucking knowledge with all of us.

The Truck Parking Issue
I had to talk about it. There are some great new resources to voice your opinion and to help bring more attention to this problem. A big concern is safety and where trucks are forced to park if a truck stop is full.

Valentine’s Day
Are you trying to figure out what to do for your sweetheart on Valentine’s Day? Well, let me tell you from a woman’s perspective some great gift ideas that won’t cost you a whole lot:

Video recorded messages
Read When letters
Flowers
Mix CD (or tape if you want to create that vintage sound from your teenage years)
Home-cooked meal

For more V-Day gift ideas, visit this great gift guide blog on heathytrucker.net.

Making Valentine’s Day special is super easy to do and really doesn’t take too much effort on your part, just a bit of thoughtfulness and a simple I Love You will have your lady falling right into your arms.

Thank you so much for listening! I have some new segments and special guests coming soon, so come back next week for a brand new show. Remember Trucking Nation, you get what you give in this world, so try to be kind and enjoy the ride. I’ll talk to you soon – Misty Noel
