Spend your Money where you live.
I know first hand that money is tight and I'm just as guilty as the next person for not spending local as much as I could, but ever since I started this business I have noticed a huge difference in service and pride when spending locally. Also: if you add in the price of gas and your time, it's cheaper to spend local most of the time. Below is a list of local businesses that have supported local small businesses and that I think are top-notch and go above & beyond and deserve your patronage. Click each to find out more. If you wish to have your local area business listed here, drop me a line.
McCollum Hardware, located in Ada, has everything you need and if it's not on the shelf they can get it in a day or so. I don't know how many times Rod has taken the time to search through fittings with me in order to make the idea in my head a reality on my service truck or at home.
Frandsen Bank in Ada has been instrumental in getting financing to start this business. They are very pro small business and went out of their way to make sure that I got the funding that I needed.
West Central Ag in Ulen has chosen to do business with me and has been a very good and loyal customer.
