Is being a freight broker stressful?

Yes, being a freight broker is stressful. This is especially true if you work independently and not as an employee of a freight brokerage.When you own your own business, if something goes wrong, it's on you, not on your employer. This, combined with the significant amount of work it takes to organize and manage shipments, often results in freight brokerage being a stressful job. However, many people find this stress worth it for the money they earn and the freedom of being their own boss. You can also mitigate much of this stress by setting up solid practices at the beginning to make sure nothing falls through the cracks. Finding trustworthy legal and business advisors can also help you rest easy that you aren't missing anything or damaging your company, and setting and sticking to policies and procedures that will protect you from mistakes or liabilities will also help.
