Shop Local with Lit Fiber

Host Leesa Boone introduces new co-hosts and welcomes guests Bradley Wyatt and Sam Evans from Lit Fiber, a Hopkins County–based internet service provider. Bradley shares how he started the company after being laid off from underground coal mining during COVID, first bringing reliable internet to his neighborhood and then expanding as demand grew. Sam describes her role handling calls, emails, marketing, sales, and field content, and they discuss keeping service local, fast response times, and a team of about 12 employees. Lit Fiber checks service availability by address, keeps a waiting list for areas not yet reached, and is currently expanding east of the interstate and into the Otter Lake area, with plans to rebuild their website to allow online sign-ups and scheduling. They announce a first annual customer appreciation day on June 4 (12–3) at 2341 Anton Road with free Dibby’s ice cream, giveaways, and a drawing, plus a new military/veteran discount: 1 gig for $50 with ID and locked-in pricing.
