Private-Carrier Fleets Turn to FullFleet.com to Recruit and Retain Drivers
Jack in the Box, Tree of Life and BOC Gases are Among Top Companies Turning to New Web Site to Offset Nationwide Driver Shortage

DALLAS – September 5, 2007 – Vertical Alliance Group Inc. today announced that 11 new trucking companies have signed with its private-carrier recruiting Web site, www.FullFleet.com, during the first half of 2007, including Jack in the Box, Tree of Life, Inc. and BOC Gases.

FullFleet.com connects private-carrier fleets with truckers seeking employment, aiming to increase driver retention percentages, decrease transportation companies' cost-per-hire and improve profitability. Vertical Alliance Group developed the site to counter a severe nationwide trucker shortage that the American Trucking Association (ATA) says currently stands at 20,000 drivers, but is expected to reach 111,000 drivers by 2014.

"As labor challenges continue to grow in the trucking industry, transportation companies of all shapes and sizes need a proven and efficient method to recruit and retain drivers. In 2007, that need has been high among private-carrier fleets, as illustrated by our growing FullFleet.com clientele," said Jay Wommack, founder, president and CEO of Vertical Alliance Group. "Web sites like FullFleet.com that combine direct marketing, advertising and in-person recruiter training will continue to grow as a viable and cost-effective recruiting tool for trucking companies."

Job seekers who visit FullFleet.com can easily navigate the site by clicking on a private carrier's banner ad, or searching for a business by state or category. After reviewing the selected company's detailed profile page, which provides applicants with all information needed to make an informed decision regarding a particular job position, interested visitors can submit personal contact details directly to the company for further follow-up and information.

Advertisers that sign with FullFleet.com receive unique offerings including custom-written and designed profile pages, and audio and video messages. Additionally, job applicants are pre-qualified before ever speaking with a recruiter, offering maximized efficiency for job advertisers. FullFleet.com also offers proactive customer support, advertising consulting and results tracking for advertisers.

FullFleet.com was developed as an offshoot of Vertical Alliance Group's flagship Web site, BubbaJunk.com, a recruiting Web site for commercial transportation companies looking to fill trucking positions. Other Vertical Alliance trucking recruiting sites include TruckerTrucker.com, for small trucking companies; 1099trucker.com, for owner-operators; and USTruckingSchools.com, which enables private trucking schools to recruit and enroll students in specific geographic areas.
