Kevin Muench, Quality House Furniture
My favorite part of Tipton is the outstanding people who live here. People always help each other out and keep our business going. It’s always been like that. We have low overhead, excellent customer service like those offered by virtual assistants, and everyday low prices that keep people coming back. We offer great brands such as La-Z-Boy, Saly, Simmons and other high-quality furniture brands that are made in the United States.
Steve Swan, The Floor Store
I love the positive relationships I have been able to consistently build here. Knowing that my customers are satisfied with their flooring feels like an accomplishment. We have made a lot of friends over the years. We really listen to what customers want. The business has worked because we are very results-oriented. We always make sure people are happy with what they have chosen. A huge selection of flooring has also helped. We have gained a solid reputation as the place to go for excellent flooring. Our number one priority is to make sure people are satisfied with their selection.
John Moser, Moser Jewelers
The best part of this job is meeting customers and getting to know them. I really enjoy working with people to create, or re-create, a piece of jewelry they love. The success we have had is all due to the positive relationships we have built through the years. Emerson, my father, started the business and knew how to treat customers right. I learned from him that you make sure the customer is completely satisfied with their piece of jewelry. We also have an outstanding staff that has been with us for many years. Angie Murray has been with Moser Jewelers for 40 years. Angie is a sales manager with us, and is one of many employees who has built solid relationships with our customers. They have been so valuable to us.
Brad Nichols, Young-Nichols Funeral Home
Young-Nichols has been a trusted funeral home in the Tipton community since 1852. I believe the benefit of being the fourth generation of the Nichols family is to provide care and service to the community. We have garnered a large amount of trust. The fact that the business is very involved in the community solidifies that feeling. Not only do we provide financial support to many organizations in the county, the staff and our families also enjoy being active. We participate with the organizations on several levels. Paying attention to details is an important aspect of providing quality service in the funeral industry. The relationships we have fostered over the years creates an environment that allows families to feel comfortable trusting their loved ones’ final arrangements to Young-Nichols. Growing up in Tipton has allowed us to know the families we serve, and that feeling of helping a neighbor is ingrained in the way we conduct our business.
Bob Nichols, Young-Nichols Funeral Home
Young-Nichols has been such an important part of the community because our professional staff is dedicated to working with families in the Tipton community for so long. What sets us apart is our experience and compassion for other people. We have had the honor of working with so many different generations over the years. People have placed a lot of trust in us, and we have not let them down.
Maurice “Fergie” Ferguson, Country Lawn and Garden
I’m in the lawn and garden equipment repair business and I really enjoy what I do. I work on everything from engine rebuilds to tune-ups, oil changes and other things like that. I like going to work every day. The best part of my job is being self-employed and working with loyal customers. What makes the business stand out from the competition is attention to detail. It’s the honesty and workmanship.
Mike Rutledge, Rutledge Well Drilling and Pump Service
I am the owner/operator of Rutledge Well Drilling and Pump Service. My wife and I started our own business in 1979. I enjoy every day of work. It is a gratifying feeling knowing that it was a job well done and you have helped someone who otherwise could not take care of the issue themselves. We pride ourselves on customer service, quality products and honesty.
Nathan Rutledge, Rutledge Well Drilling and Pump Service
I am a licensed well driller and have worked in our family business since 2005. Technology is credited to making a big difference in the success of the company. A lot of technology has changed over the years. I enjoy incorporating some of those new materials and ideas into today’s industry. I love living here. It’s a small community where you know your customers personally and we are happy to help when needed.
