The Challenge
Why Columbussmall businesses can't afford to miss calls
Columbus is one of the few major Midwest cities experiencing genuine population growth, driven by Ohio State University, Intel's massive new chip fab in New Albany, and a growing tech startup scene.

New residents from coastal metros bring high service expectations — and the business that responds first earns the relationship.
