New Redesigned Website, Crafted by Faulkton Area Economic Development Corporation with Golden Shovel Agency, Embodies the Spirit of This Community of Opportunity 

FAULKTON, SD–The Faulkton Area Economic Development Corporation (FAEDC) recently redesigned its website, www.faulktonsd.com, which highlights the “We Believe in Possible” guidepost for this Community of Opportunity situated in north central South Dakota. Developed in collaboration with Golden Shovel Agency, their refreshed website aims to bridge the gap for existing and potential business owners and residents who share a commitment to thrive amidst the unique challenges facing small towns.

“Our mission for the new website was to enhance its visual appeal and create a more interactive experience for those exploring Faulkton, South Dakota,” said FAEDC president JoDee Bryant.

“We also wanted to make this a priority for our community and keep putting out the message that Faulkton is fun, collaborative, and welcoming; a positive message we want to deliver to everyone,” added FAEDC’s Linda Bartholomew.

The new website was designed with a spunky, user-friendly interface that’s warm and inviting, reflecting Faulkton’s welcoming atmosphere.

“I love the sleek new design that puts information at your fingertips! The tabbed layout at the top of the page makes it easier to navigate and find exactly what you need. The new design offers a seamless browsing experience,” said Bryant.

Both new and existing businesses looking to escape the rush of a major metro in favor of a slower, more enjoyable pace of a small town will enjoy exploring all of the invaluable resources that the FAEDC has to offer, from tax incentives to specialized funding. Visitors can also read about the history of Faulkton and discover how it became known as “The Carousel City!”

“We wanted to let everyone know who we are as a whole: inviting, friendly, collaborative and a good place to live and raise a family. Also, what FAEDC does and why the work we do is important for the community,” said Bartholomew.

Golden Shovel’s extensive experience in creating digital resources for community and economic development made them an ideal partner for the project. “It's always a pleasure working with Golden Shovel. They listen to our needs and add to our creative side to continue to come up with new ideas,” said Bryant.

“We have a good team that works together and our GS team helping us is always responsive to our needs. When we are ‘stuck’ on a problem they are also our ‘problem solvers!’ It’s great working with them!” added Bartholomew.
