Fill your open seats with drivers who fit.
Forge Fleet Growth runs driver recruiting for fleets of roughly 10 to 100 trucks. We run the ads, screen applicants by text, sort them in a CRM built for the job, and follow up fast. You talk to the drivers worth talking to.
On the call we look at your open seats and tell you plainly whether we can help.

Built for fleets with open seats and no recruiting system
You own or run a fleet. Trucks are sitting, and recruiting isn't anyone's job. Applications come in from a job board or a referral, wait a few days, and go cold. Meanwhile you're dispatching, fixing problems and trying to find time to call people back.
We take that work off your desk and run it as one system.
- You own or run a fleet of roughly 10 to 100 trucks.
- You have open seats now, or you keep reopening the same ones.
- Recruiting is something you or your dispatcher squeeze in between other work.
- You want one team to handle the ads, the screening and the follow-up.
If you already have a recruiter keeping every seat full, or you run one or two trucks, this probably isn't the right fit. We'd rather say so on the first call than after you've signed.
How it works
Five stops, from first ad to monthly review.
-
We run Meta ads for your open seats
Ads are written for the drivers you want and aimed at the regions and equipment you run. Interested drivers start a conversation with us.
-
Drivers are screened by text
Short questions about license class, endorsements, experience and the details you care about. Drivers answer when it suits them.
-
The CRM sorts every driver
AI screening reads the answers against your requirements and files each driver as qualified, nurture or backlog. Qualified drivers come to you first.
-
We follow up fast
Qualified drivers hear back quickly with a clear next step. Nurture drivers get relevant check-ins. Backlog stays on file for your next opening.
-
We meet every month
A strategy meeting and a written report: what's working, what's changing and what we'll do next.
Every fleet recruits differently
Recruiting dry van drivers isn't the same as recruiting flatbed drivers, and over-the-road isn't the same as local. Different drivers care about different things.
We set up the ads, the screening questions and the follow-up around your equipment, your runs and your pay. No two fleets get the same setup.
What's included
One monthly engagement. No pieces to stitch together.
- Meta driver-recruiting ads
- Creative, copy, targeting and ongoing management for your open seats.
- Custom CRM
- Every driver in one place, with status and full conversation history.
- AI screening
- Sorts drivers into qualified, nurture and backlog based on their answers.
- Text-based qualification
- Screening questions by text, so drivers can reply from the road or the yard.
- Fast follow-up
- Prompt replies so interested drivers don't drift to the next fleet.
- Monthly strategy meeting
- A working session with reporting, so you always know where things stand.
