When Ida customers need you: the seasons
By the 1991-2020 normals of the Atlanta weather station (18 miles from Ida), August highs average 95°F and January lows average 33°F. About 50 inches of rain and melted snow fall in a normal year. Freezing nights (32°F or below) come about 54 times a year. With this much rain, roofers, gutter installers, waterproofing and drainage contractors are in steady demand, often after a storm. If you offer emergency or same-week service in bad weather, say so in plain words and keep the contact form short.
What Louisiana asks of a business with a website
Selling or advertising online brings no special license, but a few apply to many Ida businesses:
- Doing business under a name that is not your legal name? Louisiana calls that a trade name, and it has to be registered first. La. R.S. 51:211 et seq.
Each business is different; this is general information, not legal advice.
