Nixa, MO—Seven acres of software opened in Christian County on Highway 14 and 160 this week as Nixa Software welcomes digital loving rural customers who will be provided with high-tech gear for getting chores done around the house or the ranch. “I bought my daddy a iPhone holder belt buckle, his phone just slides into the buckle and he can access it anytime, perfectly matches his iStetson with build in Bluetooth headphones,” said Lulu Billingsly, a rancher in Willard, MO.
Nixa Software will feature large departments where electronic items such as GPS systems, digital displays and MP3s geared toward a better growing season can be found. “I’m a big fan of ‘Let you Lawn be Luscious’ which is a podcast by Miracle Grow that I listen to during the harvest season so I can have a great lawn once spring arrives,” said Hank Millower, a successful soy bean farmer south of town.
The new owners said, “When Circuit City closed doors we thought it a perfect opportunity to start a digital storefront positioned in a rural setting. Farmers, ranchers and hayseeds are all taking part in the digital revolution, just at a slower pace. Now the acceleration of adoption on the farm is hitting a critical mass. We sell MP3 players and computer programs to people who ride 6-figure trackers down to the weekend rancher riding his John Deere. All of these people have their lawn rides stereo system tricked out with the latest gadgets nowadays.”
Most traffic to the new store is expected to come from curious shoppers across the street at Nixa Hardware, however the new owners expect the word to spread quicker than a rogue grove of dogwood trees.
