May 19-21 training will bring 13 Junction City/Geary County businesses and community groups to Jon Schallert’s Destination Business BootCamp, a coordinated local effort aimed at sharpening growth strategies.
Network Kansas is covering registration support, letting local participants attend at little cost while the program teaches a 14-step plan to attract higher-value customers, win media attention and build long-term profitability.
Participants include Acorns Resort, Highwind Brewing, By Yurii's Pizza, Flint & Vine, The Spot Karaoke, the Junction City Area Chamber of Commerce and Junction City Main Street.
Local leaders said sending a large cohort should amplify the payoff through shared learning, stronger business positioning and more foot traffic, spending and resilience across the wider community.
