Nominations for the Hall-of-Fame are solicited by the IRTA and are submitted by industry participants. The nominations are then reviewed by current Hall-of-Fame members, and one individual is chosen to be inducted each year at the IRTA annual international conference. The main criterion for nomination is that the individual has displayed undisputed leadership in the barter industry.

Dave Wallach, President of IRTA, confirmed, �Don has helped to shape and define the modern trade and barter industry. He is exceptionally well qualified to take his place among the other industry leaders who have received the coveted Barter Hall-of-Fame Award.�
