Running a small business isn’t easy.

But it can be fulfilling. The secret is to find a way to spend more time at your craft–at making money–than you do trying to drum up business. We noticed that business owners didn’t always know what they were buying when purchasing marketing services. We started Hometown Design Services to help our fellow small business owners get more calls, better leads, and ultimately, more sales.

The First Step is Listening to Your Needs.
