Vehicle - Market Outlook / Competition
- The rural aspect in this area is open and available - unlimited expansion potential with limited competition. The major competition in the area includes wired (traditional Internet Service Providers), and satellite providers. While the more traditional providers in the area have been expanding, they will not bring service to everyone. People also feel that the satellite providers offer expensive alternatives, allowing a WISP to expand exponentially.
- Opportunities for Growth
- The sky is the limit with this business. The current 15 towers can be maximized further, as well as requests for new tower locations are received frequently. Commercial expansion is also possible.
