Who you compete with in McFarland

Some of the business types in Wabaunsee County, from the 2023 County Business Patterns:

• Site preparation contractors, 5 in the count. What works online: the equipment you run, the kinds of jobs you take and a contact form for builders and owners.
• Full-service restaurants, 5 in the count. What works online: the current menu with prices, hours, the address with a map and photos of real dishes.

Across Wabaunsee County, County Business Patterns counted 131 employer establishments in 2023, and the Nonemployer Statistics add 499 businesses with no payroll, most of them self-employed owners. 21 specialty trade contractors operate in Wabaunsee County, 2.6 times what the national mix would predict. In that line of work, homeowners search by trade and town when something breaks; the website should give customers one page per service, the towns you cover, license information and a quote form. Most of these businesses are small, and the website does the job a front desk would do in a bigger company.

Weather in McFarland: plan the website around it

If you offer emergency or same-week service in bad weather, state it clearly and make the contact form fast to fill in.

Paperwork and rules for Kansas businesses online

Some homework before launch:

• Kansas levies a state sales tax of 6.5% on retail sales of tangible personal property and taxable services, and cities and counties add local sales taxes on top of it. Kansas Department of Revenue
• A federal rule (16 CFR Part 465) makes it unlawful to write, buy or sell fake reviews and testimonials, so the reviews on a business website have to be real. 16 CFR Part 465
