Meet Shannon, owner of Transformation.

Transformation was founded in 2002 with her husband, Travis. Travis previously worked full time in media sales, and I came from a bank management background. Together, we each used our marketing knowledge and project management skills to create Transformation Marketing. We found that our commonsense approach and the honest relationships we built were the start of something great.

With this expansion came an increased need for talent. In 2007, Travis joined the company full time, furthering its growth. In October 2011, we bought our current building and moved in March of 2012. We added on another six offices the following year and filled the additional space with more team members. Through the years, we have gained many clients, but the exciting part of our story is that we have a client retention rate 14x greater than the industry average.

Today we talk to Nebraska Prep Equipment. Nebraska Prep Equipment was founded by Cory Hart and Jamison Wallman in late 2017. While building their last catering kitchen for their then, 5-year-old catering business, they were faced with the task of sourcing quality used equipment to stay within budget. Cory and Jamison found that quality used equipment was few and far between locally, so they broadened their search area and found a great amount of quality used equipment in the larger cities throughout the Midwest. Instead of keeping this treasure hidden, Jamison and Cory decided to start transporting this equipment back to Southeast Nebraska, cleaning the equipment and reselling it at a fair price to other food service companies in the area. Nebraska Prep Equipment started to gain traction and the option for new equipment was added to their inventory, eventually leading to offering new equipment with manufacturer warranty as well as occasional new scratch and dent units at a discounted price. We learn all about Nebraska Prep Equipment and what makes the company successful and how they are planning for 2024 and the future.
