What Rush Center business owners ask us
Can I show customers in Bison that I cover their area?
Yes. Send the list of towns you serve by email (Bison, Alexander, La Crosse or any others) and the website gets a service area page with all of them.
Can I sell online from Rush Center?
Yes. An online store with catalog, cart and online payment costs the same $89 a month as a regular website; sales tax is yours to collect (Kansas’ state rate is 6.5%, and local taxes may apply).
Rush Center is small. Do I really need a website?
Yes, because the competition is county-wide: Rush County counts 245 nonemployer businesses and 98 with employees (2023). Being findable outside Rush Center is the point of the website.
Do you have an office in Rush Center?
No. Aria is based in Curitiba, Brazil, and works with every client online: material, change requests and questions go by email, and you review the website on a temporary link before it goes live.
Is there a setup fee?
No. No setup fee: you only pay the $89 monthly fee, after you approve your website. There is no lock-in contract either: you can end the service whenever you need.
