Hey, It's Red.

I just had the idea since yesterday got so bad that I would like to start a sidewalk shoveling kind of job. Something freelance that I could set a flat rate and get appointments to shovel walkways. Nothing fancy just a guy and a shovel. I would like to set a flat rate of about 10-15 dollars a driveway. It's all good and everything but I don't have a method of spreading the word other than Craigslist. So I was wondering since I had to format my computer a while back and I lost all my photo editing software if someone could make a little sign or a flyer for me. I would be greatly appreciative and if I make a good amount on the jobs then I will put a portion of the money earned into 1up.

Much love, Red.

The best advertisement is a job well done.  If your customer is happy, they will recommend you to others.  Additionally, neighboring property owners and passers-by who see you doing a good job will be inclined to talk with you about doing their driveway and sidewalk too.

If you're going to shovel for people, consider having icemelt available.  You could spread it on the driveways and sidewalks for an additional charge.  If your customer chooses to have you salt their driveway, not only will they have a safer environment to live around (no ice), but your work will look even better than it otherwise would.

I have a customer tomorrow at 9:00 in the morning and she is going to pay 20 for the work and the person who

recommended me is a friend of mine and they asked for a referral fee and I will oblige.

I will offer the icemelt, I am getting some tonight it should come in handy, thanks for the tip Maddog.

Take it from me man, you gotta take care of yourself before you take care of others.
