Testimonials from BootCamp Graduates

“It’s really a mind-set shift, is what we learned. In the BootCamp, Jon is very specific in providing a road map to make the changes… Really and truly, we haven’t even done one-third of the suggestions Jon’s given us, and we were able to take our business nationally in 3 years, and had our restaurant featured on The Food Network … If any business owners are considering attending the BootCamp, and you think you cannot afford to be away from your business, I’m telling you, it’s a mistake! You cannot afford not to go.”
Carrie Ehresman, Owner, Diner 66 & Triple XXX Family Restaurant

“My biggest goal was to reach 1 million in sales, remodel on our ten year anniversary, and change our restaurant’s image. I am happy to report with everything I learned from you, I accomplished all three of my goals. Thanks, Jon!”

We are delighted we did: In 9 months we attained a 64% increase in sales. Contact me personally if you have any doubts about this class at www.adamscountywinery.com.”
John Kramb, Owner, Adams County Winery, Orrtanna, PA

“The program seems to be set up as a reality check for any business operation. What a great way to get the business owner’s mind aligned with the business. A complete course in customer management! If it had not been for Jon Schallert and his Destination Marketing BootCamp, I am not sure where we would be today. In a course of my business life (nearly 50-years) and attending probably over one-hunderd business conferences, there has never been any program designed so precisely to direct a destination business. Many people look at other successful businesses and wonder ‘How do they do it?’ Jon Schallert shows you how! Not only that, he keeps us up to date with business marketing trends on a monthly basis. It is truly a great learning experience.”
Stewart Thompson, Owner, Martha’s Bloomers, Navasota, TX

“The BootCamp is the single most important thing a business owner can do for their business. The BootCamp separates “the men from the boys”. Decide what you want, if you want success, fun and excitement in your business life. GO TO THE BOOTCAMP! There wasn’t a single minute when I was bored or my attention wandered. Sell your jewelry, borrow money from your ex, do whatever it takes to get here! I spent 23 years in the corporate world and attended lots of seminars, ‘universities’ etc. I never used the junk they told me. After attending the BootCamp I feel like I’ve come through purgatory to heaven!”

Shawn Holtel, Owner, Heirlooms of Oldenburg, Oldenburg, IN

“Jon provides a powerful and practical plan to achieve success in your business. Jon’s bootcamp is so good, I have attended it twice. He provides so much valuable information that can immediately be put to use. Our customers notice the difference. ‘This is my favorite store’, ‘You have great food with a fun atmosphere’, and ‘This is where the magic happens’ are just a few customer quotes we have received since returning from Jon’s BootCamp. Since I have returned, I am no longer in that group of business owners with typical excuses like ‘If only there was more foot traffic downtown’ or ‘If only I had a better location.’”
Steve Banister, Owner, Artworks, Hanford, CA

“When I was first introduced to the idea of going to the Destination Bootcamp, I thought, yeah maybe there were a few things I could learn and bring back to The Good Earth Garden Center…but most likely, not much since we had our stuff together. After all, our business was winning all kinds of local awards, we had a solid team and were growing. We had a lot going for us and I was focused on those things, thinking we were doing it right. As it turns out, I was immediately amazed at the opportunities we missing! When Jon mentioned other businesses and what they were doing and the opportunities that were being passed up, I realized we had been doing the same. The bootcamp encouraged me to raise the bar; and I hadn’t been thinking we were below the bar! … My eyes were opened to a whole world of re-invention! I learned that everyone wants to be a destination but I had the opportunity to creatively position my business to actually BE a destination through atmosphere, uniqueness, and attitude. Without Destination Bootcamp, we would not have gone from receiving local awards to national awards such as the Most Revolutionary Garden Center in the Nation as we did this year. And if that isn’t eye-opening, what is?”
Gregg Curtis, Owner, The Good Earth Garden Center, Little Rock, AR

“As a Main Street Manager I have had the opportunity to watch my business owners who attended the BootCamp and I can see the ways that they are energized already, after only one day! I can tell this is making a difference already! This is an incredible model for you to look at your business and pinpoint your weaknesses and strengths. Many of the ideas will not cost you money to implement!”
Kristie Wert, Program Manager, Main Street Norwalk, Norwalk, OH

Vicki Taylor, Owner, The Tin Station Antique & Gift Store, Westmoreland, KS

“Jon will enthuse you and empower you to become the business you should be. Your head will swim and your heart will stop, but you will want to be successful and soar with his ideas and plans!”

“Since our group came to the BootCamp, we have really bonded and our business relationships are now very personal. We no longer talk about a particular by name necessarily but send people to “Julie’s Store” or tell our customers to be sure to check out “Donna’s shop” across the street. It gives a face to the store or business and lets the customer know that these people are our friends. I think it’s been a wonderful addition to the culture of our downtown!”
