What if a few workflow changes could cut your average arrival time from 44 minutes to nine and reduce secondary crashes by 30 percent? That’s the lived experience industry veteran and Hall of Famer John Borowski brings to our conversation about modernizing towing operations with digital dispatch.

We dig into the real reasons teams resist new tools—fear of the unknown, comfort with paper and radio, anxiety over ROI—and show how unified software turns chaos into clarity. John breaks down integrations that matter most: seamless connections with motor clubs, police calls, GPS, billing, and reporting so jobs, photos, timestamps, and signatures live in one clean record. The payoff is immediate: calmer dispatchers, fewer errors, faster ETAs, and accurate invoices. For owners watching margins, a simple per-truck subscription with no upfront fees and a free trial lowers risk while surfacing cost-per-call, profitability by account, and the data you need to negotiate smarter.

Safety takes center stage. John shares how tighter dispatch, real-time tracking, and automated statuses helped DOT teams clear scenes faster and curb dangerous secondary crashes. With location visibility and dwell-time alerts, operators get an extra layer of protection and customers spend less time on the shoulder. We also tackle data security and compliance, explaining how audit-ready logs and access controls protect sensitive information while meeting agency and motor club requirements.

We wrap by celebrating John’s new book, Towing Through Time, and his upcoming column in Tow Professional Magazine—two more ways he’s investing in the industry’s future. If you’re evaluating dispatch platforms or still juggling paper logs, this conversation offers a clear blueprint to scale safely and profitably.
