First off I want to say this is not an add or anything I just need some information and feel that going to the source is the best course of action for me to take.
Here is the question. I am thinking about doing books for o/o's from home. My uncle is an o/o and I know what kinds of things that need to be taken care of. I am sure there are drivers out there like him that know a bit about computers but not enough to take care of all the things that need to be taken care of while an o/o is out on the road. I am based in Joplin Mo a Trucking town to be shure.
The services I would offer would be like a secritary would. Organizing all paperwork and keeping files ready for tax time, along with having all your taxes ready itemized for the tax professionals. ( I am not a tax person and would not market that I am) But would take your taxes to whomever you wished or mailed them to whomever you wished. O/O's could call me and talk to a live person and I would take care of most anything that they needed. Including but not limited to organizing reciepts, making hotel reservations, resturaunt reservations, making phone calls on your behalf, sending emails, letters, balancing check books, making online money transfers and anything that a trucker can come up with can be discussed but not guarnteed.
So, do you O/O's think that this type of service is needed in the trucking comunity? Do you think that this is something that other truckers would use? I would chage 100-300 a month depending on the amount of service I need to provide to the trucker. Prices would be on a person to person bases.
Any thoughts let me know.
