About Us:

Welcome to Haven, Kansas—a community where small-town hospitality meets modern living. Situated in the heart of south-central Kansas, Haven is an ideal destination for individuals and families seeking safety, connection, and a slower pace of life, without sacrificing access to essential amenities.

The town is proud to support a well-rounded Pre-K through 12 educational system that reflects the heart of its community. Educators, staff, and families work in close partnership to foster a positive and engaging learning environment, with a focus on academic achievement, personal growth, and community involvement from the earliest grades through high school.

Haven offers a variety of locally owned restaurants, cafés, and gathering spots that provide residents with welcoming atmospheres and home-cooked flavor. A lively local bar contributes to the town’s social scene, offering a place to unwind and connect. Retail options, including convenience stores, specialty shops, and general merchandise outlets, serve the daily needs of the community while supporting local enterprise.

The town also features a range of professional services—from personal wellness and healthcare to home and automotive care—all delivered with the friendly, personalized attention Haven is known for. Recreational opportunities abound with a 9-hole golf course, a 24-hour fitness facility, and nearby Cheney Reservoir for fishing, hiking, and enjoying the beauty of Kansas' wide-open skies.

Strategically located just 20 minutes from Hutchinson and 45 minutes from Wichita, Haven provides seamless access to city resources while maintaining its identity as a peaceful, family-oriented small town. It’s a place where tradition and progress work side by side, and where newcomers are always welcomed as neighbors.

What inspires your work and what sets you apart from everyone else?

In 2025 the American people lost more than 20 Billon dollars to cyber related crimes. We are different than most IT companies in that, we secure your technology from the beginning making cybersecurity a primary concern instead of an afterthought.

How would you describe the vision of your business in one sentence?

To multiply the impact of every organization we serve by securing their mission, strengthening their systems, and empowering them to steward technology with wisdom, excellence and confidence.

What has been your biggest success to date?

My largest customer was paying $100,000 / year for a tool that they thought they needed. They asked me to take over the management of this tool. I spent a month learning the tool and how it worked in their system, and I came to the conclusion that they were not getting any value out of this tool. I worked with my customer to help them see that canceling this subscription would have no impact on their business. We successfully disconnected the tool for them and they were thrilled. I consider this one of my biggest success stories because of the partnership with my customer. I lost out on $2,000+ / month in business from managing this tool. But making money is not our primary driver. At ThreshingFloor IT we believe in partnership first and helping businesses make the best decisions possible.

What do you enjoy most about marketing for a small-town business?

Building relationships and investing in community

What’s your best advice for someone who wants to start their own business?

Learn to garden in your spare time. Planting, watering, and harvesting are important aspects of business. Spending time alone in the garden and letting nature teach you patience, persistence, hard work, and determination are invaluable lessons.
