What’s The “M” Mean in "TMS"?
When you use AscendTMS, the "M" means "MAGIC".
We include MAGIC services like legal help, accounting services, tax advice, payroll services, shipper leads, sales training, operations training, driver & carrier payment services, funding, and insurance. The best part? Most of that MAGIC is totally free.
We're the ONLY TMS to have all this ON TAP for you.
No successful logistics business can run today without back-office services like these. AscendTMS connects you - in your TMS - with our full time business experts on our team to guide you when you need the help.
YES - it really is MAGIC - and only from AscendTMS.
On Demand Legal Services – From Contracts To Litigation & More
We have live and on tap legal services from real human bar-certified lawyers here that speak your lingo. From simple contract review and execution to litigation, HR legal services, claims issues, compliance, business formation, and ANY other legal issue you can think of. AscendTMS customers get immediate access to an expert lawyer in minutes.
These services come from full time trucking and brokerage expert lawyers that really know their stuff – and they know YOUR business inside and out (most general lawyers don’t have a clue about trucking, brokerage, or freight law).
Just click the legal subject you need help with (from the 50+ listed), and you’ll get a free consultation with a real live bar-certified human lawyer that speaks your lingo in minutes. NO other TMS offers this service – only AscendTMS does.
Payroll Processing For Trucking and Brokerage Businesses
Most payroll companies don’t know a lumper from linehaul or deadhead pay to extra stop pay. Heck, forget about them knowing the difference between company drivers and owner operators in the same fleet. And, if you pay some drivers a different scale from others...fuged-aboudit!
At AscendTMS we KNOW trucking and we KNOW payroll – and we run it for you RIGHT the first time. We even take the calls from your drivers or employees to explain their federal deductions, any state income tax fees, any IRS liens or deductions, escrow accounts, and we do it for free for you if we handle your payroll.
Oh, and AscendTMS does ALL the payroll settlement and commission calculations for you in real time. You just approve the pay items, press ONE button, and we do the rest for you.
Need Accounting Help? We’ve Got You Covered.
Once of the most sought-after advice we get is about accounting and taxes. Well, fortunately for you, we have experts that can help you out. With just one call to our friendly live support team, you get FREE accounting help. If your needs require an EXPERT CPA, accountant, or book keeper, we’ll transfer you live to our good friends at ATBS (America’s Trucking Business Services) where you’ll get the help you need to tackle even the most complex accounting or tax issue.
Heck, they’ll even file your income taxes, IFTA taxes, or state taxes FOR YOU! How’s that for service! Again, it’s ALL in AscendTMS. No other TMS can offer you this. NONE.
Need SHIPPER LEADS? Yes, We Have Them (And We Pay Shipper CRM For You To Get Them)!
If you NEED SHIPPER LEADS, AscendTMS comes pre-loaded with ALL the information you need. You can either use our totally free Shipper Directory (over 26,000 shippers, with contact information and credit scores) OR, as an AscendTMS customer, you get 50 free live (and fully validated) shipper leads - including verified contacts - from THE LEADER in shipper profiles and verified shipper leads; ShipperCRM.com.
With ShipperCRM, you get fully validated shipper profiles, including revenue, commodities shipped, lanes active, weekly load volumes, seasonality, trailers used, and even the number of dock door doors, along with the validated shipper lead contact(s) working there, their validated email addresses, their validated phone numbers, and much more.
Again, no other TMS will include this for you. Only AscendTMS will. Huzzah!
Funding and Payments – Fully Built In For You.
If you need funding, AscendTMS is pre-connected to over 80 factoring companies (and ALL of the top 20 factors). Just complete you load and click “get paid”, and we send ALL the load information to your chosen factor electronically, and the money flows into your bank account in as little as 60 minutes.
And, if you need to pay carriers, we do that for you, too. Just complete the load in AscendTMS, approve the carriers invoice that they sent, and click “pay carrier”. We send the cash to them for you via the massive TriumphPay payments network (free to you, too).
Why hire a payments person at your company to cut carrier checks or send ACH payments when you can just approve the payments in AscendTMS and send the money when you tell us to. Again, this service is ONLY in AscendTMS for you.
