Sylectus News
Syleconomics January 2012 Edition
Below is a summary of transportation industry numbers from our databases. On the surface, it would seem that December business was quite a bit lower than November, but December had one fewer working day than November and December has several “slow working days” due to the holidays. December is always a bit slower due to the Christmas holidays. The good news is that the rate/mile inched up in December as the tight capacity in the market kept carriers busy and trucks moving.Enhancing Sylectus with Microsoft Bing Maps
In order to serve you better, we have made some enhancements to our unit searching capabilities by moving from Google Maps to Microsoft Bing Maps. These changes will not affect the present Position History links to Google Maps website.Syleconomics December 2011 Edition
On the surface, it would seem that November business was quite a bit lower than October, but November had one fewer working day than October. November is always a bit slower due to the holidays. The good news is that the rate/mile remained constant, even though the volume of business dropped a bit. From a “year over year” perspective, November 2011 was another positive growth month for most of our subscribers. Trip counts were up year-over-year and revenues were up even more. Again an indication that rate/mile continues to be strong. The lack of capacity is showing up in several of the charts (below). We continue to see record truck searches and load postings, up almost 100% from the same time last year. We suspect our customers could make more money if they could find more trucks.Older Articles
