Jon Schallert is the only business consultant in the world teaching businesses and communities how to turn themselves into Destinations, marketplaces that are irresistible to consumers. Schallert speaks to thousands annually on his "Destination Business" process, which he developed over the course of nearly thirty (30) years interviewing over 10,000 independent business owners in over 500 communities.

In this workshop, Jon shows how his 14-step Destination Business strategy has helped hundreds of rural small towns, urban marketplaces, and thousands of businesses succeed. Attendees will learn how any business in any community can use Jon's strategy to capture both local customers and retain tax dollars locally, while pulling in consumers from outside an area's immediate demographic area.
