About

What is MSD Express Inc?

MSD Express Inc is a Chicago-based departure carrier who specializes in freight logistics and transportation. MSD proudly operates a modern fleet of over 50 units in two terminals across 13 states, and is rapidly expanding.

Problem

The company had no convenient website that would play a role as a platform to attract driver applications. To increase the amount of driver applications, MSD Express also needs to revamp their social media strategy and appearance and incorporate certain business automation solutions.

Solution

For the business, we developed a fresh, user-friendly website with all the necessary data and resources for hiring drivers. We consolidated the MSD social media profiles to make them more recognizable. The conversion and retention rates increased as a result of the business automation solutions we introduced.
