Doing business in Martin

UT Martin, with more than 6,800 students, anchors the city. MTD, the outdoor power equipment maker behind Cub Cadet and Troy-Bilt, has operated here since 1985, and the state called it Weakley County’s largest private employer in 2018. West Tennessee Healthcare Volunteer Hospital, a 100-bed hospital, serves the area, and every late summer the Tennessee Soybean Festival celebrates soybeans, the county’s cash crop.

Martin isn’t the county seat (that’s Dresden), and the Weakley County Chamber serves the whole county, but most of the businesses that take its Weakley Chamber Bucks gift currency are in Martin. Customers come from Sharon, Dresden, Greenfield and South Fulton, and a college town turns over part of its customers every year, so a Martin business does well with an accurate Google profile, a fast mobile site and clear pages for what it offers.

No. Mississippi River Marketing has one base, in East Prairie, Missouri, about 80 miles away by road. We meet with Martin business owners in person by appointment, or by phone and video, and we’ll never list an address we don’t have.

Can you help my business show up on Google Maps in Martin?

We can make your Google Business Profile complete and accurate, build clear service pages and help you earn honest reviews. Google’s local results weigh relevance, distance and prominence, so nobody can promise a position, but those are the parts a business can improve.

How much does a website cost for a Martin business?

It depends on the scope. As a rough guide, a basic website is around $500, and a fully built site with a blog and more pages is around $2,500. After a short conversation we send a written quote with the yearly costs spelled out. Our guide How much does a small business website cost? explains what drives the price.
