​Business Partner Challenge:

How do we, as a downtown businesses, attract more patrons in the morning hours?

Our experience . . .

     "I like that play on words - STEAKholders Map." ~ HS Student

     "As a teacher, I have found the investment in team building carries us significantly farther than just getting down to business immediately. I've also learned that the vibe the team arrives with should dictate which direction we go. Sometimes it's Jump into Protocols and other times it's Snack and Decompress and then lock it in." ~S. Kapenga Educator

     "Doing the work to recruit a new business partner was... a lot of work. I realized that you have a spend a lot of time painting the whole picture to sell it... and then they still say "no." My suggestion for business partners is to seek people who are all in for kids. The rest easily falls into place. We hit two jackpots! I have a new perspective on why we are encouraged to put our best foot forward to maintain the partnerships we have in our area." ~ S. Kapenga Educator
