Local shops in the Coastal Bend area get better websites.

Eleven shops have new sites. One of them is owned and run by the shop owner himself.

We've been building a network of websites for service businesses in the Coastal Bend area: screen printing, towing, plumbing, HVAC, computer repair, all the stuff a town needs. We own and run most of them. They all share the same design, the same clear pricing, and the same phone number routing so each shop knows which calls came from their website.

Falfurrias Printing is different. Eddie owns the shop. We built the site and handle the technical side, but it's his domain name and his brand. He pays us monthly to keep it running. This is the model we want to grow: a website that belongs to the shop owner, not to us, but that we keep in good shape.

We're not trying to own the Coastal Bend. We're trying to make it easier for a one-person shop to look professional online, get found by customers who need them, and handle the phone calls that come in. If that's worth paying for, great. If not, we keep learning.
