SUMMARY:Locally-Driven Business Recruitment: Take Charge of Your Business Mix
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER NOW (APA-NJ Members Receive a 10% Discount)\nFeaturing Joe Getz and Mark Lohbauer of NJ’s JGSC Group  \nHosted in the heart of downtown Summit – a Main Street New Jersey community since 2014. This 66th NJDI features a day-long intensive workshop teaching how to run a business recruitment program within a variety of budgets and staffing constraints. Shopper interest in downtown business districts continues to rise as a preferred alternative to the mall or shopping center experience\, but how well can your district attract visitors if it is dominated by nail salons\, professional offices\, or vacant storefronts? \nThere is something that you can do to manage your retail mix\, and this NJDI is a full day training program that will teach you the principals and techniques of that process. The program focuses on three goals to help you: \n\nIdentify the nature of your retail district\, and its retail potential\nLearn the process that major retailers and shopping center managers use to recruit retailers;\nDevelop skills that you can apply in your district to begin recruiting retail businesses\n\nThe workshop is designed for downtown management and revitalization program staff\, board and volunteers\, as well as elected and appointed officials who want to get ‘under the hood’ of locally-driven business recruitment. \nAgenda\n8:15 – 9:00 am Coffee\, Networking\, and Registration9:00 – 9:45 am Introduction: The principals of retail recruiting9:45 – 10:30 am Many kinds of retail district—what kind is yours?10:30 – 10:45 am Break11:00 -11:30 am What’s important?

For over 25 years\, JGSC has been bringing the tools that they originally developed for major malls into the business districts of communities with downtown retail centers. With their help\, small business districts have been able to understand the nature of their district\, determine their optimal potential retail mix\, and to manage their mix by recruiting the retail businesses that they want and need.
