About Us
Who We Are
My name is Jeannette. I'm a resident of beautiful Southeast Missouri, where my husband and I are raising our two small children.
I've worked for years within our regional community promoting local businesses, attractions, community members, and organizations - both through my career and in my personal time. In that time, I've seen up close many of the challenges small brick-and-mortar businesses face.
The strenuous competition against large online and chain store competitors; increasing digital ad costs with continously decreasing ROI; the challenge of juggling so many crucial roles within their own businesses just to keep everything afloat.
It can be drowning.
With a passion for marketing, a love for our Missouri community, the invaluable relationships I've built with so many small business owners, and the "idea" that was always in the back of my mind that I just kept going back to - I finally made the decision to launch The Missouri Box.
Our Values
The mission of The Missouri Box is simple. It's to bring small local businesses - your neighbors, your friends - right to your door.
We source from businesses all over the state to grant them increased exposure with the ultimate goal of converting each and every subscriber into a returning customer for them.
When you support local businesses, you are directly stimulating the local economy through job creation and economic stability. Local businesses often source their products and services locally, promoting further sustainability.
When you shop local, you build connections and relationships with business owners and neighbors, creating a prosperous and tighter-knit community.
When you shop local, you're building upon the foundation of a beautiful community for yourself and for your family.
Our hope is that you'll join in our initiative:
✔ To bring more customers into our business's doors
✔ To discover amazing products made right in Missouri's backyard
✔ To promote increased awareness of the benefits of shopping small
