October 26, 2026—9-10---It’s YOUR Business-----Show 53-77

(((From the Blackburn Studios in Downtown Sioux Falls—Welcome to It’s YOUR Business----)))

((((MUSIC---This OLE HOUSE----YEE-HAH))))

   I’m Bill Zortman and Welcome to our It’s YOUR Business Show---in this retirement week----we will cover a lot of territory—of where we have been-----and hopefully why what we did was worth your time.

   What I will do this week is go back and talk about projects that we launched----and why they should be on the landscape for weeks—months—and years to come.

    Tony Bachman----has worked closely with me for years----we did work real estate together---and we established—the Report Card show—that has carried on well into 2026-----(Todd Boots)

     The show is followed so much ---and leadership has made it a place we explained what was going on-----and the trends in buying, selling, building and setting trends in our housing industry----

      So what has happened in housing Sioux Falls---and did what the report card show christened---make a difference that can and should be felt for a long time to come--?

-----------Todd/Tony---------------maybe Mark Russo----------

GOOD LIVE-READ LINES

“Whether you’re counting down the days until first ice or already thinking about next year

open-water season, you’ll find something at Dakota Angler Institute.”

“If fishing gear is on your Christmas list, you might want to bring that list with you!”

“Make sure you find the Dakota Angler Closeout Cave — that’s where you’ll want to hunt for

some serious deals.”

“This isn’t just walking around looking at booths. You can meet some of the people you watch

and follow for fishing advice, including Tom Boley and Jason Mitchell.”

“Bring the kids! Ages 11 and under get in FREE.”

“Come for a few hours Friday, or grab the $15 weekend pass and come back all weekend.”

DJ emphasis: Make it sound BIG, busy and loaded with things to discover. The hook isn’t

simply “a fishing show.” It’s new gear + exclusive deals + major fishing brands + top

anglers + ice AND open-water fishing all in one place.
