Jim Bramlett

With a career spanning over 40 years in the transportation and logistics industry, I have had the opportunity to wear many hats and contribute to the success of various businesses. A serial entrepreneur at heart, I have founded seven companies, with my latest venture being a Chair at Vistage. This role allows me to guide and facilitate the growth of other business leaders, both personally and professionally.

As the founder of 5 String Solutions, a technology firm, I've dedicated our efforts to bridging the gap between shippers and local, last-mile carriers. Our unique focus on real-time information sharing and enhanced shipment visibility sets us apart in the industry.

Before delving into entrepreneurship, I held an executive role at uShip and freightPro.com and led new product development at Yellow Freight. These experiences gave me a deep understanding of the logistics and transportation sector and equipped me with the skills to start my businesses.

I have also authored two books, "The Unconventional Thinking of Dominant Companies" and “Stop The Hassle, " providing insights into how businesses can organically grow and dominate their respective markets.

My entrepreneurial journey and expertise in business growth strategy and logistics have earned me recognition in the industry. I frequently share my insights on these topics as a speaker at various events, providing valuable knowledge to the audience.

I currently reside in the Kansas City area, where I continue to explore new business avenues and contribute to the business community's growth.

When I'm not wearing my business hat, you'll find me sharing my expertise in business growth strategy and logistics or speaking at events. I call the Kansas City area home.
