Hills
Hills is a small city in southern Rock County in the far-southwestern corner of Minnesota right near the South Dakota and Iowa borders, a community with strong Dutch-Reformed heritage and a base of agriculture, hog and cattle farming, trades, and service businesses serving the surrounding farmland. Its faith-and-farm character and tri-state-corner setting anchor a small-town economy. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms — custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing — for the Hills area's agriculture, dairy and livestock, trades, retail, and service businesses, and we serve them remote-first from York County, Pennsylvania — distance is no barrier, and we add on-site time when a project warrants the trip.
Do you work with businesses in Hills, Minnesota?
Yes — remote-first from our York County, Pennsylvania base, and being a Dutch-heritage prairie town in the far-southwestern corner of Rock County is no obstacle: nearly all of our work is done remotely, with on-site visits when a project warrants it. A Hills client gets a named contact, a regular maintenance window, and direct access for urgent issues.
Does being a small town make support harder?
No — it's the opposite. A close-knit farm community like Hills is exactly where remote-first support matters most: you get fast help without anyone needing to make the long drive.
What would you build for a Hills farm, livestock, or trades business?
Usually a recordkeeping, production, herd, scheduling, or billing platform built around how your operation runs — so a Hills business works from one system instead of a paper calendar and disconnected apps.
Can you help a Hills hog, cattle, or row-crop operation with recordkeeping and logistics?
Yes — a hog, cattle, or row-crop operation near Hills is exactly who we build production, recordkeeping, inventory, herd, and logistics tools for, around how the season and the haul actually run.
Can you help a Hills business that works across the SD and Iowa borders?
Yes — being right at the tri-state corner, we tune local SEO and content and build customer tools that reach the South Dakota and Iowa sides, so a Hills business serves its whole cross-border market.
Where does AI help a Hills business?
In intake, scheduling, recordkeeping, customer email, and follow-up — so a Hills business gets real leverage through the farm season without adding headcount.
Can you help a Hills trades or contractor business manage jobs and customers?
Yes — a contractor or trades business is exactly who we build job-tracking, scheduling, quoting, and billing tools for, around how the work actually flows.
What's the cybersecurity baseline for a Hills business?
Managed EDR, MFA, immutable backups, phishing filtering, and a written recovery plan, plus secure payment handling if you take card payments. We set it up and manage it for you.
What does a custom platform cost a Hills business?
A single focused workflow runs from the high four figures into the mid five figures; we scope it to what your Hills operation actually needs and phase it so value lands early.
How long until it's running?
Usually eight to ten weeks to the first live workflow, then iterative improvements from there.
Who owns the code and data?
You do, outright — no lock-in. The platform and data belong to your Hills business.
Can you help a Hills business get found online?
Yes — local SEO and content tuned for Hills and its southern Rock, Dutch-heritage tri-state prairie market, so the customers searching nearby find you first.
