Insurance Agent | Trucking Insurance Expert | Former Trucker

My name is Michael Davis—but most people know me as Entre Mike. How did I get that name? Well, let me explain.

I never imagined I’d end up in the logistics industry. I grew up in a small-town family in Middle Georgia, where the most common path to “making it out” was through sports. I played basketball, football, and even a little soccer all the way through high school. Having an older, athletic brother and growing up in a competitive environment lit a fire in me. Whether it was grades, sports, or a game of chess, I was always driven to outdo the competition. That competitive spirit shaped my work ethic—I’ve always believed in earning results.

Because money was tight in our household, I started working in fast food and retail at age 16. After high school, I was offered a few partial D2 and D3 football scholarships, but my sights were set on something bigger. I chose to attend the University of West Georgia, majoring in Computer Science. I wasn’t the top student, but I earned over 120 credits and maintained a solid 3.1 GPA.

Then everything changed with the pandemic.

At the end of 2020, I became an owner-operator with a box truck. As I navigated the complex startup process with the FMCSA, I began documenting my journey on YouTube under the name EntreMike—short for Entrepreneur Mike. Sharing my real-time experience not only helped others, but also helped me build an engaged audience.

In 2021, I partnered with a close friend (who owned an insurance agency) to launch a hotshot trucking business. That connection—formed through networking on my channel—completely shifted my path. With just around 6,000 subscribers at the time, I saw firsthand the power of media, the impact of shared knowledge, and the potential of affiliate marketing. I learned that success isn’t just about what you know—it’s also about who you know.

Fast forward to 2024, and I’ve entered a new chapter: trucking insurance sales. It’s a completely different game, but I’ve been able to thrive because I understand truckers. I know what they need—whether it’s information, guidance, or reliable insurance. I’m willing to go the extra mile to make it happen.

Now, I get to connect with my audience on a deeper level than ever before. I’m passionate about what I do, and excited for where this journey in logistics and insurance will take me next.If you’re serious about making smarter business moves and truly understanding how this industry works, you’re in the right place.
