Key Takeaways

Strategically schedule work around absences: Plan your workload to ensure critical tasks are completed and properties are maintained just before leaving for events or vacations.

Optimize vehicle maintenance costs: Consider sourcing good-condition used tires for work trucks to save money, especially when high wear and tear are expected from daily operations.

Document and share build details: When completing equipment builds, create a comprehensive list of materials and tools, and share it with others, especially if they can be sourced affordably.

Prepare for industry events in advance: Plan logistics like vehicle maintenance (oil changes), packing, and even small details like replacing worn-out gear (hats) before attending expos or conferences.

Leverage mid-week event scheduling: Recognize that attending events mid-week can make last-minute hotel bookings more feasible due to lower demand compared to weekends.

Prioritize efficiency before big events: Dedicate time to pre-emptively complete tasks (e.g., bush trimming) in the week leading up to a major event, allowing for quicker, more focused work during the final crunch.

Maintain work-life balance: Even during busy periods, strive to allocate time for family and personal life to avoid burnout before demanding professional commitments.
