(1888PressRelease)
October 28, 2008 - Virtual Edge Collaborative, a Pittsburgh advertising agency and marketing company alternative (www.virtualedgeonline.com), has been hired by Delaware-based trucking holding company, Transport Investments, Inc., one of the largest privately owned trucking groups in the United States, to help launch TILT (Transport Investments Logistics Tool), the company’s new Web-based tool for owner-operators.
TILT is a Web-based unified service portal offering an innovative approach to transform freight shipping by leveraging technology to provide real-time, easily-accessible and flexible information. Some of the advantages of using TILT are easily-accessible load board information (Internet access is all that is required), a unified platform for information, improved and more flexible reporting capabilities, and ultimately, higher earnings potential for drivers.
First go-to-market projects to launch TILT will include an informative brochure and matching catalog envelope, technical instructions sell sheet, and an eBlast targeting new and existing owner-operator
clients.
“The decision to choose Virtual Edge Collaborative was a no-brainer, said Transport Investments’ Manager of Information Technology, Damian J. Martino. Looking for a Pittsburgh marketing company like Virtual Edge Collaborative is like searching for a needle in haystack. Our choices were either to hire an expensive Pittsburgh advertising agency, marketing company or graphic design firm, or finding and managing a barrage of freelancers. Virtual Edge Collaborative was the perfect solution – offering the ideal blend of affordability, flexibility, experience, quality and speed.
Formed in 1988, Transport Investments, Inc. is a Delaware-based company that was established to form or acquire trucking companies, and to serve as a holding corporation for various trucking companies. On a consolidated basis, Transport Investments, Inc. has gross revenue for 2007 in excess of $128 million and 2008 revenue is projected to exceed $145 million.
