Starting a truck dispatching side hustle from scratch can be risky, especially for someone who can't afford to lose money. Individuals in this position could potentially lose money due to investing in software, training, and marketing efforts without securing clients. It's common for beginners to spend money on setup costs and not see immediate returns, leading to financial losses. While there is potential for profit in this business, there are no guarantees, and it may take time to establish a client base and generate income.
