              The Vermilion Chamber of Commerce has partnered with Al Hebert, Business Writer, Television Producer to offer a seminar for business owners and potential business owners who want to learn more about “How to Compete!”

              Al reports on the highly competitive retail petroleum marketing industry, convenience stores and truck stops. Learn how strategies used to compete and win can be used in your business.

              He is speaks to industry groups, national conferences and at corporate events. He’s been quoted in the Washington Post, Business Insider and writes for national and state publications. His lifestyle feature stories are seen in 10 million American Television Households.

              Gas Station MBA

              Is there a way for Main Street businesses to compete effectively against multinational retailers? Can these businesses survive? Can they thrive?

              Gas Station MBA details the strategies that convenience store and truck stop owners have employed to not only survive competition, but to thrive in their markets. 

              It offers small business owners a different way of thinking about marketing, competition, channel blurring and use of social media. 

              It’s about the box and who is thinking outside of it. When faced with this kind of competition there’s only two things to do. A business owner can pack up and close or get creative.
