Just thought of this after we got dumped with freezing rain!

No snow removal company in my area offers driveway salting after a freezing rain storm.

This is a great way for an existing company to increase revenue/market share or for someone new to break into the market.
You could offer it as a bundled service with regular snow removal, or for an extra $30.

You might also want to look into salting the stairs as well to squash the competition from 1 upping you.
