Jae Burnham has been in the moving business longer than most. He started his first company in Michigan in 2008, grew it to nearly $1 million in gross revenue, sold it in 2019, then restarted from scratch in 2023 – documenting the entire rebuild on his Moving for Money YouTube channel for nearly 10,000 subscribers. He knows how moving operations actually run, and he knows what CRM software usually gets wrong.
We recently sat down with Jae on camera for a live, unscripted demo.
He came in with real operational experience and pushed on the details that actually matter day to day.
- Can payroll handle the difference between a local hourly job and a long-distance weight-based job?
- What happens to leads that never converted — can you still work them a year later?
- How fast does support actually respond when something breaks mid-operation?
The kind of questions that only someone who has run trucks would think to ask.
Watch the full conversation below.
His take speaks for itself. If you want to see how MoversTech fits your operation, the next step is a private demo.

What did Jae Burnham think of MoversTech after the demo?
Based on his firsthand experience with the platform and his own assessment of the moving industry, Jae found MoversTech to be a practical solution to problems most moving companies deal with daily - missed leads, no follow-up system, disorganized dispatch, and manual processes that cost time and money. He described it as a tool that helps moving companies capture more leads, book more jobs, and run a tighter operation. Coming from someone who has evaluated most of the moving CRMs on the market, that is a considered position, not a casual one.
