I live in a city of 60,000 give or take and I only know of one guy doing parking lot striping and its the same guy been doing for 25+ years and he is really slowing down. He does less and less every year. I have seen many business owners outside doing a very half assed job themselves. I'm starting to think their is a huge opportunity here. Within a 90 minute drive we have at least 25 other towns/cities ranging from 2,000-15,000. As I pass through many of those areas I notice most of them have not had any real lot painting maintenance done in years. I already own two trucks and two enclosed trailers so the only things I would need are the tools themselves. Looks like $3,000 or so would be all I need to get rolling. Looking to try it on the side just to test the waters. Any thoughts?
