Rob Schlosser grew up in East Islip, New York, where he became a New York City fireman for 10 years. During his time in the fire department, Rob started an asphalt maintenance business that he currently owns called All County Asphalt Maintenance. They do full service parking lot maintenance including sealcoating, crack filling, pothole repair, and snow removal.
Q: How did you learn about the brand?
A: I was working on a job for my business, and I needed a parking lot striped. After searching and searching I couldn’t find anyone reliable until I stumbled upon We Do Lines. I called We Do Lines and talked with Skip Barrett, my current business partner and Director of Franchise Development at We Do Lines. Skip convinced me to take a trip to Connecticut to learn more about the company and becoming a possible franchise owner. At the time, I wasn’t ready to take on another business by myself so I declined the offer. A month later, Skip contacted me and asked me if I wanted to go into business as partners. Skip was so passionate about the growth opportunities and successes of We Do Lines that I couldn’t decline his offer. We Do Lines is a great compliment to my current business.
Q: What was appealing to you about joining We Do Lines?
A: First and foremost, the name. It is catchy, turns heads and makes people pay attention which is important for any business. I constantly have people admiring my truck and trailer, and sometimes people take pictures. I don’t think I would have bought the franchise if it wasn’t for the name.
The other reason is that my other business was primarily working asphalt repair and resurfacing on residential properties. We Do Lines offered me the opportunity to break into the commercial asphalt industry and work on large scale projects.
Q: What makes your business different?
A: The thing that separates We Do Lines from our competitors is professionalism. Aside from We Do Lines, the industry is underdeveloped which allows us to expand into more markets. Most other people in this line of work are untrained or just trying to make a few dollars quickly. Our employees are fully trained, have clean trucks, and uniforms. The We Do Lines standard of excellence is incomparable.
Q: What challenges have you overcome to get where you are now?
A: Finding passionate and reliable employees is the biggest challenge in any industry. Our employees are fully trained in house as well as on the job. We also send our employees to school given by the leading manufacturer of the machines we use daily. Our business is around the clock so we need people who can be flexible and work efficiently. We only hire excellent workers.
Q: Do you have any other interesting hobbies or passions?
A: I’m an outdoorsy guy. I love boating, horseback riding, sky diving vacationing and staying in shape.
