From Rock Bottom to $35M
How Christa Schott grew her $2M to 35M— with 200% projected growth this year— and created a thriving culture that hardly anyone wants to leave.
At age 22, Christa Schott saw an opportunity for a service that did not exist and promptly founded Alliant Consulting with a $5,000 loan. For 15 years she built the business as best she could. After a devastating lawsuit and a hard-won legal battle, Christa joined Vistage in 2021 to take her $2M company to the next level. Christa credits her Vistage peer advisory group and coach with providing the support, advice and resources she needed to grow her business beyond her wildest dreams. With the solid backing of her Vistage group, she’s made strategic decisions that have led to significant growth year-over-year— with a projected 200% increase in the coming year.
She’s also created a culture that emphasizes learning, leadership and growth opportunities — boasting an employee turnover rate of 2%. Today Alliant is at $35M in annual revenue, serves the labor force in all 50 states and Canada and has big plans for continued expansion. A high-integrity leader who is motivated to elevate her company, staff and community, Christa has plans to give 100% of her earnings to charity.
