“A Very, Very Easy Software
System to Learn”
 TBC
Trucking Corp., of Pen Argyl PA, is a subsidiary of Techo-Bloc,
North America's premier manufacturer of landscape and masonry paving
stones. In this interview, Techo-Bloc’s Alison Lohman speaks out
about their Axon® experience.
Tell us about Techo-Bloc and TBC Trucking.
“We manufacture concrete blocks for paving stones and retaining
walls. Until recently, we had been paying other trucking companies
to haul our product to our dealers. In 2005, we bought trucks that
worked under Techo-Bloc hauling our product, and the owner of the
company decided that he wanted to find more trucks and it was
decided to make it a separate company. Our only customer isn't Techo-Bloc,
but we pretty much only haul landscape products.”

“Does Your Software Save You Over $90,000.00 a Year?”
 Jake
Peters started New Hope Transport Ltd. of Oak Bluff, Manitoba in
1991 operating primarily as a flat deck operation with some vans and
pneumatic tankers. ...
Can you estimate your return on investment
with your Axon software?
“The Axon software will save you on people. It saves you on extra
salaries that you don't have to put out and training as far as extra
people goes. I'm sure that if we didn’t have it, that we’d be
looking at having at least three more people, so it's probably a
savings of close to ninety to a hundred thousand dollars a year.”
How easy is it to use the software?
“When we switched over to Axon, the transition was like a breath of
fresh air. I would really suggest to people that haven't switched
over, that the Axon system has just simplified and enhanced our
operation and enhanced our productivity so that we are able to do a
whole lot more. Nobody should be afraid to switch over.”

“When You Lose an
Important Staff Member, Make Sure Your Software Can Take Up The
Slack!”
 How one
Missouri group discovered the secret to running both a trucking and
a logistics company with one software system, less people, and more
free time!
Tell us about your company.
“Both of the companies were started in 1996. It started out with
just my husband, and then my husband and I together, and we've just
increased in volume and in employees over the years. With Axon, I
think we'll be able to continue to grow and handle the growth that
we've already experienced.”
Describe some of the issues that Axon has
helped you solve.
“We didn't have any type of trucking software program prior to Axon
so it was a very time-consuming process. The dispatcher would have
to type up order confirmations. Then we'd have to manually create
our invoices. So there was a lot of duplication of the work. We used
a lot of Excel spreadsheets, and now it's all there in one system.
We're able to answer questions and not have to manually go and track
down the paperwork, which was double the work. We had a lot of
problems. We pretty much did everything manually. Now it's a lot
easier all around.”
