The businesses that compete for customers in Cosby

Across Andrew County, County Business Patterns counts, among others:

• Site preparation contractors: 8. Their website should show the equipment you run, the kinds of jobs you take and a contact form for builders and owners.
• Insurance agencies: 5. Their website should show a page per type of coverage, the agents and a contact form that sends quote requests to your email.
• Full-service restaurants: 5. Their website should show the menu, hours, location and photos of the food, easy to read on a phone.

Andrew County as a whole had 276 employer establishments in 2023 and another 1,348 nonemployer businesses, the one-person shops and independent contractors that often have no website at all. 37 specialty trade contractors operate in Andrew County, 2.1 times what the national mix would predict. In that trade, 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. Administrative and support service companies are also overrepresented (21, 1.5 times the national share). None of them needs a complicated site; they need one that answers the customer’s first questions honestly.
