"I've been in freight marketing for more than a decade and I've never felt more at home than while at a TMSA conference. Marketing in this industry can be a very lonely position but the TMSA provides community and insight that emphasizes collaboration over competition. If you're looking for personal growth and opportunities to learn from colleagues within the freight world, you need to become involved with the TMSA."

"We have been a Corporate member of TMSA for several years now.  TMSA has and continues to bring value in the areas of both education and networking. Education through TMSA is two-fold. First, the association offers regular opportunities to learn through structured events. Second, education comes through a great connection to other TMSA members in like-positions who are willing to discuss and share what we are all doing to win.  The networking opportunities, both virtual and in-person, have provided valuable contacts with both vendors and industry partners that enable us to build and deploy "best practices" in our sales and marketing efforts."

Vice President, Marketing & Communications at Odyssey Logistics & Technology

"I’ve spent my career generating revenue in the logistics space, and I’ve always thought the salespeople were the tip of the rev gen spear. When I joined the TMSA, I was exposed to a multitude of practitioners, people and organizations, hyper-focused on marketing and sales methodologies specific to rev gen in the transportation, logistics and supply chain space. By studying best practices and engaging on one-to-one conversations with other peer members of the TMSA, I came to the realization that the rev gen hero isn’t only the sales person, but each of the commercial team members surrounding them, in marketing, learning and development, customer success, sales support and operations that together execute a successful rev gen strategy. How we invest and track our sales and marketing dollars, how we execute new strategies and the level of return we’re getting back on our sales and marketing investments has been transformed through our relationship with the TMSA and its members."

"The spirit of collaboration within TMSA is unlike any other I've experienced, and the level of professionalism and expertise in sales and marketing within transportation is unparalleled. Becoming a member of TMSA was an easy decision and is without a doubt the most economical and valuable membership within supply chain, and many of my closest friends and partners in business came through relationships established through TMSA."

Letter from the TMSA Executive Director

The moment I stepped foot into my very first TMSA event more than five years ago, I knew I found an organization that I wanted to be involved in.

Throughout the years, I was an active member, serving on the education and marketing committees, as well as the Board of Directors. I met people who became more than just a person or two I smiled at during a tradeshow one time, or someone to catch up with a few days a year. I found a network of people who have become an integral part of my professional and personal life.

TMSA has always be a safe space for me to bounce ideas off my peers, to find industry professionals who let me pick their brains on all things sales, marketing, transportation, and logistics. It became one of my favorites places to be.

When TMSA was in search of new leadership, I heard the call to lead. It’s been an exciting and rewarding experience to help usher TMSA into a new era.

At its core, TMSA is an organization that is for and governed by its members. Without dedicated volunteers that help run the association, and all the members who keep showing up as attendees to events, it would not exist.

I welcome you to join us.
