It’s been more than a month since Marc Benoit returned from an early March trip to the annual conference of the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada , and he still hasn’t made it all the way through the two-inch-thick stack of business cards he collected at the event.
The difficulty now, Benoit said, will be finding the time to follow up with each of those new contacts while balancing a full workload and transitioning production to A10’s newly built facility. In advance of the expansion, Benoit recognized that he’d need some additional help to handle any new work that came their way. So, he’s added to his complement of staff, in the shop and in the office, in preparation.
Benoit is open about experiencing some personal challenges — his wife was in a life-altering cycling accident three years ago — that sharpened his focus on what’s important in his life. “Maybe at the end of my career, people will be saying, ‘Well, you should have made a lot more money,’” he said. “But I'm just going for the good tombstone.”Work is ongoing to develop an industrial park on the 42 acres Benoit owns in McKerrow, where he’ll portion off parcels of land for interested developers looking to set up in the area.
“Through all of my life adventures recently, I realized that if you even force yourself to take that time for yourself, it's beyond beneficial,” Benoit said.
