As many know, I left the Contracting business this year to focus more on consulting and speaking inside and outside of the green industry. It’s been an exciting change for me, and I’m thoroughly enjoying it.
This week, Kansas City got its first snow storm of the season, and it was an ice/sleet/rain/snow event with really low temperatures. I was watching via my phone from the East Coast as I was out of town, and I still do manage one clients parking lot from a subcontracting basis.
I can say this, after being in the snow business for the last 12 years, and over that time, managing upwards of a few hundred acres of parking lots and plenty of subcontractors, equipment issues, client concerns, accidents and bizarre weather patterns, it was good to not be in the snow business this season. Needless to say, I missed the revenue, and the challenge of accomplishing the task at hand in a short period of time, but it was nice to sleep through the night, and not have my phone on overdrive because of the weather.
I was, however, excited that the client I was working with, billed 18k the day before in snow, and did it at a great gross margin.
