- 6,000+ drivers completed our onboarding courses, resulting in over 30,000 completed shipments in the last 12 months
- We completed hundreds coaching calls to drivers with any sort of background and experience that resulted in creating full-time carriers, many of which can be read on our blog
- We have 3 driver onboarding dedicated communities with over 3,500 drivers being active members
- Drivers using our platform did over 1 million miles in the last 12 months, transporting pets and valuables across the US

Recently, I have taken upon myself to learn more about SEO and paid marketing with the help of my co-workers and our generous professional development stipend. I also look forward to our next video game night competition!

Head of Client Success

CitizenShipper is a third-party transportation marketplace. With a focus on platform simplicity, responsive transportation providers  and an emphasis on showcasing transportation providers services we  provide the customer with a streamlined and simple tool to quickly and easily connect with the right transportation provider. 

We’re most passionate about creating a simple, seamless product that  makes it effortless for primarily pet owners and reliable transportation providers to  connect. We want our drivers to be known for safety, reliability and professionalism and we want to take out anxiety from the pet transportation process for the pet owner while bring simplicity to a fragmented industry, and create the world’s  first trusted pet transportation marketplace that services the entire US.   

Additionally, we want to introduce non-professionals to a new income generating  lifestyle and guide them through the process of becoming a pet transporter,  by showing them the best practices, how to safely transport pets, how to  keep in contact with customers throughout the journey, how to obtain  appropriate licenses and safety certificates, how to plan trips to maximize profit, and more.

MARKET Protocol

MARKET Protocol allows users to trade the price of anything while leveraging the benefits of the blockchain. Trade stocks, cryptocurrencies, and traditional assets. You can currently experience the power of blockchain derivatives trading with MPX, our decentralized exchange (DEX) built on top of MARKET Protocol.

I have been a team member almost since its inception, with a priority focus on the marketing startegy and social media as well as community building and engagement through our chats. During my tenure, the founders have empowered me with a lot of knowledge on the derivatives industry and have had a lot of flexibility and acceptance for my ideas and initiatives, always being oriented towards testing and learning from our experiences. They have enabled me to grow as a person and a professional, and allowed me the freedom to represent our project in all the capacity I felt will best demonstrate the revolutionary idea we are working on. The biggest takeaway for me in the last 12 months working with the team is the quality of relationships we have all established among ourselves despite the cultural, professional background and timezone differences. They have a great recipe of how to build a remote and distributed workplace.

Owner Operator

A former over the road truck driver, fleet and general manager of a trucking company, currently a VP of Business Operations at CitizenShipper. 

10 years and 600,000 miles in the transportation and logistics industry later, I am now lucky to be able to expand and forward my knowledge and experience to thousands of drivers looking for their next gig using the #1 pet transportation marketplace in the US. 

I got out of the trucking business in early 2018 to pursue a career in social media and community management, and since then I: 
- Successfully built communities in 4 different industries 
- Helped multiple small business owners with increasing their brand awareness and sales
- Continuously leveraged skills learned to build multiple income streams for myself
- Worked my way up from the bottom to earn multiple promotions 

I am now on a journey with 40+ more companions at CitizenShipper in building the future of long-distance pet, car, motorcycle, boat shipping and more! 

And I am also learning how to play golf as well. Happy to hear your tips on how to improve my driving distance!

Why Jake Paul already won!?

(and why many of you will disagree)

Hate him (majority) or love him, Jake Paul is the first thing that pops up on Google these last 2-3 days. And it's not the first time. 

He did it with Vine. 

He did it with YouTube. 

But this is different. 

Unlike any other time before, he now owns content distribution rights as the founder of MVP - Most Valuable Promotions, organization responsible for setting up what's likely going to be most watched Netflix live event ever. 

Jake Paul is the new Don King, only now, we live in the era of streaming. Accessibility. When almost anyone has internet on multiple devices. 

He is poised to be bigger than Don ever was. 

Whatever the outcome of this fight is, from purely business standpoint, Jake made IMO his best move ever:

🥊He found a legacy brand that's struggling and suffered from lack of attention, but was adored and loved by people of all ages (boxing).

🎯 He entered the ring to validate that if marketed right, people will want to watch it again. And more importantly for him, to gain legitimacy.

💡Knowing what he knew about Vine dying, and YouTube owning the algorithm, he built a platform of his own, to ensure that he will make money regardless of the outcome. 

📺 He will be able to choose where any future fights get streamed, so he "controls" the algorithm this time (at least that's what I expect to happen after this fight).

Personally, I will not be watching tonight. I just don't get entertained seeing people fighting. 

I never watched a single video of Jake Paul on Vine or YouTube. 

Yet, somehow I know all about who he is, who his brother is, what their legacy is. 🤔

To me, he won because he has my and probably millions of other people's most scarce resources - attention. 

And he has it even though I am not even interested in him. 

Brilliant 👏

P.S. Although I will not spectate, I will cheer for Mike Tyson for sure, what about you?
