We had the good fortune of connecting with Jay Johnson and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Jay, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?

I come from a family of Entrepreneurs! My Grandfather owned & operated his Fleet of Dump Trucks before retiring. My Mom has owned a successful Tax preparation business for years.

I witnessed their hard work, long nights , and I learned from their mistakes. After obtaining my Class A license and gaining OTR driver experience I decided that I wanted to learn the business side of the industry.

I obtained My Bachelor’s Degree with a Major in Business Administration and Minor in entrepreneurship. I took my knowledge & paired it with my industry experience to start both My Trucking & Business Consulting Companies.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?

Young Transportation industry expert on a mission to deliver success! From company driver 2016 to proud Business owner in 2018. My Journey wasn’t easy but it has been more than worth it.

The ultimate mentor for aspiring entrepreneurs, guiding them on the path to real success with business expertise. I offer personalized one-on-one classes virtually or face to face at my office.
