Lead generation for freight brokers & 3PLs — USA
Shipper appointments for your brokerage.
Paid and AI outreach. Booked meetings.
AVANTAI books qualified shipper appointments for freight brokers and 3PLs. Paid acquisition and AI outreach reach shippers. Your team gets a meeting on the calendar, with context — not a shared list of leads. We do not haul freight, and we do not offer trucks or capacity.
The founder also operates Cargoback, a freight brokerage. That company moves freight. AVANTAI does not. This page only books shipper meetings for other brokerages.

You know this story
The book is a few shippers deep, and new conversations show up only when someone has time to prospect.
A salesperson is expensive before the first meeting, and the good ones are hard to keep.
Referrals built the brokerage. Referrals do not fill next month's calendar.
Buying a list gives you names. It does not put a shipper on a call with your team.
How it works
Paid and AI outreach, operated for your brokerage. Your team takes the meetings.
The system
From outreach to a shipper appointment on your calendar
Shippers your brokerage wants meetings with: industry, role, and buying signals. Verified contacts, not a scraped dump.
Paid acquisition and AI outreach to those shippers. The ask is a meeting with your brokerage. The message does not offer freight, trucks, or capacity.
Replies are checked against the shipper profile you agreed. A fit becomes an appointment. A mismatch does not.
The meeting lands on your calendar with context for your rep. You close. We do not quote on your behalf.
A weekly note you can read in a minute: outreach, replies, appointments booked, appointments held.
Subject: a shipper meeting for your brokerage
Hi [Name] — we book shipper appointments for freight brokerages.
If new shipper conversations only happen when someone on your team has spare time, that is the gap.
Paid and AI outreach. Your team takes the call. We do not haul the freight.
Worth 20 minutes to see if it fits?

What counts as a qualified meeting
Agreed in writing before we start: a decision-maker or real influencer in logistics or purchasing at a shipper, who accepts a discovery call with your brokerage and shows up. Anything less does not count in the weekly report.
Why us
Appointments for brokerages
Chema Fernández founded AVANTAI and also runs Cargoback, a freight brokerage in Spain. Cargoback is the operator. AVANTAI is the appointment service sold to other brokers and 3PLs. We do not publish Cargoback load counts on this page, because those figures describe a freight operation, not this service.
AI handles research, first response, and booking. People set who you want to meet and supervise what goes out. The shipper is asked for a meeting with your brokerage — nothing else.
What this is
We book shipper meetings for your brokerage
- The offer
- AVANTAI is lead generation for transport companies that broker freight. We book shipper appointments for your brokerage with paid acquisition and AI outreach, the same appointment standard we use for home-service contractors: a meeting on the calendar, not a pile of shared leads.
- Who this is not for
- If you need trucks, a carrier, or someone to move cargo, you are not the buyer. That is CargoBack (cargoback.com), the founder's freight brokerage. AVANTAI will not sell you a load.
- What you receive
- A qualified shipper accepts a meeting with your brokerage. Your rep gets the name, the company, and why they agreed to talk. Your people close. We do not quote freight and we do not operate equipment.
- What we will not claim
- There is no published AVANTAI freight case study and no measured appointment count on this page. Operating history belongs to Cargoback. It is not an AVANTAI result.
Home services (HVAC and garage door) stay on their own pages. This page is only shipper appointments for brokers and 3PLs.

The deal
You close. We fill the calendar.
Setup and a flat monthly fee. The fee does not move with meeting volume, so we have no reason to book a shipper who is not a fit.
Enough time to learn the shipper profile; short enough to leave. Cancel with 30 days' notice.
The written definition of a qualified shipper appointment is part of the agreement. It is what the weekly report counts.
Reduced terms for the first brokerages, in exchange for a documented case study once results exist. Pricing is set on the discovery call — in dollars.
We do not sell hours, lead lists, trucks, or freight. One flat monthly fee covers the operation, whatever the meeting count.
Broker questions
“I've been burned by an appointment setter before.”
That usually means they were paid per meeting, so they booked anyone who said yes, and nobody wrote down what a real meeting was. We work on a flat monthly fee, so a bad meeting earns us nothing. The definition goes in the agreement before we start, and the weekly report counts only meetings that match it. You can leave with 30 days' notice.
“Do you have freight, trucks, or capacity?”
No. AVANTAI does not haul freight and does not offer trucks or capacity. If that is what you need, use CargoBack (cargoback.com). This service only books shipper appointments for brokers and 3PLs.
“We don't have anyone to take the meetings.”
Then do not start yet. You need someone who can take the discovery calls and follow up. Booking appointments does not hire that person for you.
“Isn't this just ChatGPT writing emails?”
No. AI does the volume work: research, list building, draft variants, sorting replies, and booking. People decide which shippers are worth a meeting and what the outreach is allowed to say. The outreach asks for a meeting with your brokerage. It does not offer to move cargo.
“We bought a list once and it was garbage.”
A list is not the product. We work from commercial B2B data, verify addresses before anything is sent, and drop what cannot be verified. You get an appointment, not a spreadsheet of names.
“We already have a sales team.”
Good. This exists for them. They spend their time on shipper meetings. They do not spend it building the outreach.
“What happens if we stop working with you?”
You keep what was built for you: the research, the sequences, and the infrastructure in your name. Exit takes 30 days' notice.
“Can you guarantee X meetings a month?”
No. We do not publish a meeting count, and we do not guarantee one. What we commit to: the definition in writing, a weekly report you can audit, a flat monthly fee, and a 30-day exit.
“Is the outreach legal in the US?”
B2B email in the US follows CAN-SPAM: accurate sender information, no deceptive subject lines, and an opt-out honored promptly. Paid ads follow the platform's rules. If you also sell into Canada or the EU, the rules are stricter and the campaign is set up accordingly.
