Around Town, They Know Your Name. But What About Online?

You've built your business one customer, one referral, and one good experience at a time.

People know your work. They tell their friends. They come back.

But not everyone looking for what you offer already knows your name.

Some are new to town. Some are searching Google. And some are comparing businesses online before they ever pick up the phone.

Your online presence should give those people the same confidence your longtime customers already have.

That's what I help with.

I build websites for Southern Missouri small businesses that make it easier for people to find you, understand what you offer, and take that next step.

Great Businesses. Great Websites.

Hi, I'm Frannie. I make local businesses easier to find online.

I'm the small-business owner behind Rise & Shine, based right here in Mountain View, Missouri.

I started this business doing virtual assistance and the behind-the-scenes work that keeps businesses running. Somewhere along the way, I realized the part I couldn't stop loving was building websites.

Not just making them pretty.

I love figuring out what a business is really trying to say. Organizing all the pieces. Finding the right words. Thinking about what someone might Google. And making the next step obvious.

Basically, taking “I know I need a better website, but I have no idea where to start” and turning it into “YES. This finally looks like us.”

Small-Town Roots.
Big Online Possibilities.

I'm based in Mountain View, Missouri, and I love helping the small businesses that make our communities what they are.

From family-owned shops, local service providers and churches to authors and therapists building something of their own, I believe good businesses deserve to be found.

I offer website design and ongoing creative support to small businesses throughout Southern Missouri, including Mountain View, West Plains, Willow Springs, Houston, Mountain Grove, Eminence and surrounding communities.

And while Southern Missouri is home, I work with businesses beyond our little corner of the Ozarks, too.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • It depends on what your business actually needs. I offer website options designed with real small-business budgets in mind, and I’ll recommend the simplest option that gets the job done well—not a pile of extras you don’t need.

  • Nope.

    Bring me your notes, brochures, Facebook page, old website, voice memos, half-written Google Doc—or whatever you have.

    Helping you organize what your business needs to say is part of what I do.

  • Yes. SEO isn’t something I tack onto a website at the very end.

    I think about search terms, page structure, titles, descriptions, local relevance, and how Google understands your business while your website is being built.

    I also offer additional local SEO support when you need it.

  • You might not need a new one.

    If the bones are good, I can help improve the design, copy, structure, SEO, or customer journey without unnecessarily rebuilding everything.

  • Not at all!

    I’m based in Mountain View and especially love working with businesses throughout Southern Missouri, but I work with small businesses across the country.

  • Nope! Rise & Shine actually started as a virtual assistance business.

    I also provide ongoing marketing and VA support, including website updates, email marketing, social content, tech help, and administrative support.
