Are you maximizing the profitability of your snow contracts? Whether you learned the hard way after this winter’s low/no snow season or need the knowledge to improve your process, this workshop is for you. A snow sales professional, attorney and insurance representative will be on hand to help attendees identify pitfalls and how to make course corrections or avoid them altogether:
- Estimating mistakes
- Unbalanced portfolios
- Contract language that exposes you to financial and liability risks
- Subcontracting issues
- Insurability of contracts
Thanks for joining us!
