Today, we are sitting down with Jon Wanderaas, Founder of Alaskan Seafood Guys, to hear about his journey from fishing in Alaska to building a thriving seafood business in Montana. Jon talks about what it was like growing up in Alaska, being part of commercial fishing crews, working on tenders, and managing a Cannery in Alaska before coming back to Montana. 

We dive into how he started Alaskan Seafood Guys, beginning by simply bringing seafood back from his trips to Montana from Alaska, then transforming it into a mobile seafood truck, and eventually growing it into a storefront, online store, and delivery service.

In this episode, we talk about Jon’s strategy of truly understanding your customers, meeting them where they are, and adapting product offerings to fit their needs. We discuss the importance of diversifying marketing efforts, expanding product lines, and effective communication.
