Kennedy’s small businesses and what their websites need
Some of the business types in Kittson 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.
Kittson County as a whole had 144 employer establishments in 2023 and another 353 nonemployer businesses, the one-person shops and independent contractors that often have no website at all. Kittson County has 3.6 times the national share of religious, civic and membership organizations: 19 of them in the 2023 count. In that line of work, members and newcomers look for schedules and contacts, so the website should show meeting times, programs, location and how to get involved. For any of them, a clear website is the difference between being compared and being skipped.
Sizing up the Kennedy market
Before you publish: Minnesota and federal rules
Some homework before launch:
- 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
- Minnesota’s state sales tax is 6.875%: a 6.5% general rate plus the 0.375% increase required by the Minnesota Constitution. Cities, counties and special districts add local sales taxes on top of it. Minnesota Department of Revenue

Questions we hear about websites in Kennedy
Can I show customers in Drayton that I cover their area?
Yes. Send the list of towns you serve by email (Drayton, Stephen, Donaldson or any others) and the website gets a service area page with all of them.
Do you have an office in Kennedy?
No. Everything happens online and by email, from Curitiba, Brazil; you see the whole website on a temporary link before approving it.
What do I need to send?
Your logo, some photos of your work or place and a short description of what you do, all by email. We put it together and you approve every page.
Is a website worth it for a business in a city of 167 people?
Yes, because the competition is county-wide: Kittson County counts 353 nonemployer businesses and 144 with employees (2023). Being findable outside Kennedy is the point of the website.
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.
