Make Money Plowing Snow

Photo copyright by Nik. Goodbye to Summer & Hello to Winter

It is the end of summer an if you live in the midwest you need to prepare for the snow. You can make great money plowing snow.

If you have a large truck all you have to invest in is a large blade that will hook up to the front end of your truck as well as parts to hook it on. Of course, you will want snow tires on as well.
Now is the perfect time to start making brochures and business cards so you can make money plowing snow.

Your brochure should have your name, a business name if you so choose, address and phone number on it. Put a border along the edges to make it look more professional. Add a photo at the top or on the front of your brochure of a driveway filled with snow to remind potential customers what lies ahead. Maybe you want to put a picture of a shovel with the “not” sign over it.

If you have the time you can put one of your brochures and business cards (made right off of your computer) in as many newspaper boxes as possible. Or you may want to hire your teenager or a neighbor teen to hand them out.

You can also hang your brochures, signs and/or business cards up at local businesses to help advertise your services.

An excellent idea is to offer a sale for a gift certificate for people to buy their family and friends. This is an excellent gift for people that are too busy or elderly.

Besides one time fees, you may want to offer package deals such as plowing a customers driveway five times for "x" amount of dollars. You could offer a seasonal pass for say $250.00 which means anytime it snows over three inches or more of snow you will plow their driveway. The customer will not have to worry about paying you and he or she will have peace of mind knowing they are taken care of all winter.
