Membership That Grows People, Teams, and Careers

TMSA membership supports professional growth at every stage, from practitioners building confidence, to leaders developing teams, to executives shaping strategy. Through community, experience, and shared learning, members grow not just in knowledge, but in impact.

More Than Education. A Community Built for Growth.

When you join TMSA, you become part of a community made up of professionals with varied experience levels, responsibilities, and perspectives across marketing, sales, communications, and business leadership.

Members represent every corner of the transportation and logistics ecosystem, including 3PLs and logistics providers, carriers across all modes, port authorities and maritime organizations, technology innovators, and original equipment manufacturers. That diversity creates richer conversations, practical insights, and learning that reflects the real challenges teams face today.

TMSA’s partner members further strengthen the community by bringing specialized expertise in marketing, sales enablement, PR and advertising, digital strategy, event execution, sales coaching, and business growth. This gives members access to ideas, tools, and perspectives they may not have in-house.

How Members Grow at TMSA

TMSA is built around participation, not passive consumption. Members grow by learning from peers, getting involved in the community, and taking on opportunities that stretch their skills beyond what day-to-day roles often allow.

Marketers, sellers, and leaders learn from each other, test ideas, and build experience alongside people who understand the realities of the transportation and logistics industry.

Membership also supports growth across an entire team, from practitioners building confidence, to leaders developing people, to executives shaping strategy.

Member Testimonials

"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."
