Say hello to the brand-new Overdrive/ATBS coproduction of the only comprehensive handbook to running an owner-operator business, from bookkeeping to maintenance and getting the best fuel mileage, shopping for and understanding insurance, and everything in between to the end: retirement, and effectively saving/investing for it. Our 2024 Partners in Business manual is now available for download at this link.
The book has long been a cornerstone for prospective and new owners making the transition from work in trucking as a company driver, yet there's a great deal more to it than that.

If you're attending the Mid-America Trucking Show starting Thursday, join us at 2:45 p.m. Friday, March 22, in the MATS Pro Talks Theater (B104 in the South Wing) for the official kickoff for this year's PIB program. Find ongoing updates through the year via OverdriveOnline.com/pib. Hope to see you there.
