Who you compete with in Wallis

  • Plumbing, heating and air-conditioning contractors (4): emergency availability in plain words, the towns you cover and license information.
  • Auto repair shops (3): the services you do, the makes you work on, hours and a form to describe the problem.

Austin County as a whole had 705 employer establishments in 2023 and another 3,654 nonemployer businesses, the one-person shops and independent contractors that often have no website at all.

The jobs Wallis residents hold are mostly in education, health care and social assistance (14.6%) and retail trade (14.4%). None of them needs a complicated site; they need one that answers the customer’s first questions honestly.

The legal basics for Wallis businesses online

A few rules apply to any Wallis business that sells or advertises online:

  • Texas charges a 6.25% state sales and use tax, and local jurisdictions may add up to 2%, for a maximum combined rate of 8.25%. Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts
  • Under ADA Title III, a business open to the public should make its website usable by people with disabilities, according to the Justice Department’s guidance. ADA.gov guidance
  • Texas has no state-level general license, but city and county permits still apply, so check the local county and city government where the business operates. In Wallis, that means asking Austin County and the City of Wallis. Official source
