We small rural businesses are pretty much left to our own devices. Luckily, we are a pretty resourceful bunch with plenty of ideas–even some that are fairly innovative.
You bet! And the one thing we have to offer is SERVICE! We know our customers wants and needs and have time to cater to them. That is what makes us special and why our customers are loyal. Well, some are anyway.
