Owner-Operator Business Opportunity: Own a Route (or Multiple Routes)
Create a winter business inside our ecosystem.

This is a true business opportunity with unlimited income potential tied to route density, responsiveness, and storm activity.
Imagine the freedom to:
• Run your own schedule during events and stack additional routes as you grow.
• Focus on production while our app handles dispatch, GPS/photo logs, and documentation.
• Earn a full year’s income in 3–4 months, then keep the rest of the year open for family, travel, or other ventures. (Earnings vary; not guaranteed.)

Ideas For Small Business
Looking for a local venture you can scale? Our owner-operator model lets you own a protected snow removal route (or multiple routes) serving strata properties. It’s a repeat-service niche with premium pricing supported by GPS-logged documentation and council relationships.
Ideas For Online Business
Our operations are app-driven: live weather alerts, route queues, GPS/photo logs, and digital approvals — all managed on your phone. Physical work powered by an online workflow that keeps billing and proof-of-service airtight.
Franchise Opportunities
We’re not a franchise — there’s no franchise fee or territory buy-in — but you get franchise-style support: route development, playbooks, training, documentation standards, and marketing/lead flow. A franchise alternative with lower overhead and more flexibility.
Self Employment Opportunities
Be your own boss with a scalable winter business. Start with one route or expand to multiple routes and crews. Imagine the freedom to concentrate earnings in the winter season and keep most of the year available for what matters to you.
