Hi


Im new to the courier industry and was wondering is it to late to become a courier due to the fact theres alot of couriers already out there and if anybody could give me any tips to securing work?

I have read up on all the sites like 'Shiplys' and 'Anyvan' which you have to pay fairly high charges when winning a job.

Thanks

the best advice i can give you is research.


use the net to look at every thing you can find about courier work, ignore the ones that claim you will make money they want to sell you something.
do not pay out money for anything, the best advice will be free, find as many forums as you can and READ them they have great info.

mostly though you will need to speak to courier companies near you, they can tell you if there is work near you.
