Transparency, optimization, and collaboration. These three words not only define TOC Logistics, they are the basis for TOC’s success. We’ve been partners with TOC Logistics since 2014 and have watched their business grow over the years, we are proud to be a part of their success and accomplishments in the logistics industry.

History of Innovation

TOC Logistics was started by Gary Cardenas in 2011 because he saw what was missing in the industry. Gary recognized the opportunity to provide innovative logistic concepts and lean-focused added-value services to achieve his customer satisfaction and business profitability.
Since day one, TOC has adopted this basic philosophy as the foundation for achieving continuous improvement and growth.

Team 8THIRTYFOUR + TEAM TOC

When TOC and 8THIRTYFOUR came together several years ago, 8THIRTYFOUR created a strategic plan with measurable goals.
Then, we got to work by providing a new and optimized website, creating blog and social media content, and forging connections and building relationships with key media.
This past year, TOC’s goals included shifting brand perception to the global level, increasing brand awareness, and supporting lead generation efforts. 8THIRTYFOUR employed creative, digital, public relations, and social media efforts to achieve the goals through a uniquely integrated approach that leverages every tactic for maximum impact.

Crushing Goals

TOC and 8THIRTYFOUR have been blowing this year’s goals out of the water!
By increasing the use of Google Ads, quality form submissions are up and generating revenue for TOC. The website traffic has increased 29% organically year-over-year, and Twitter impressions are at a record high of 25,000.
Additionally, 8THIRTYFOUR has secured 15 pieces of earned media and established a relationship with industry reporting leader JOC.

What’s Next?

Something on Your Mind?

If you ever need proof that personal brand matters...Kim got to see the @nasaartemis II launch in person as a direct result of her Big Deal Energyâ„¢. 

You need to work hard, show up authentically, and provide value. That was her message to a room full of students and young professionals at @western_michigan_pmi's theProject Collegiate Competition. 

The Big Deal Energyâ„¢ Workshop is on June 23. Register at the link in bio.
Employers think Gen Z is lazy, entitled, and will quit the second things get hard. That perception is keeping you out of the room before you ever get a chance to prove otherwise.

The good news is, you can flip the script, but it will take some serious work and a personal brand, or as Kim Bode refers to it: Big Deal Energyâ„¢.

Kim is speaking at theProjectâ„¢ Collegiate Event, hosted by the Project Management Institute Western Michigan Chapter on April 14. She'll cover how to build a personal brand that actually sounds like you (not ChatGPT) and how you can show your value through social, content and networking.

No one talks about how lonely it is to own a business. The tough decisions land on you, the business doesn't pause when you need a break, and nobody - not your employees or your spouse - really gets it. 

If you know a business owner, tell them they're doing a good job. It matters more than you know.
The growth stage is the hardest part of building a business. 

Kim was recently quoted in @corpmagazine on what she sees running the Women's Entrepreneurial Fellowship: women who have built something, survived the hardest part, and are still doing everything themselves. The natural tendency to be humble and attached to their work creates unique business challenges for women; they put up walls because they can't be vulnerable. 

Meanwhile, when a woman CEO needs growth capital, she compiles three years of tax returns before a bank will schedule a meeting, while her male competitor closes the same deal over drinks.

When women have access to the right resources, they grow and invest back. Full article at the link in bio.
