ParcelPal Announces Partnership with Major Marijuana Retailer for On Demand Delivery

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / January 27, 2017 / ParcelPal Technology Inc. (“ParcelPal” or the “Company”) (CSE: PKG) (FSE: PT0) (OTC PINK: PTNYF) is pleased to announce that they have exclusively partnered with one of Canada’s largest medical marijuana dispensary chains. They currently have over 15 locations in operation across Canada, and are expected to have over 100 dispensary locations by the end of Q4, 2017. ParcelPal will begin integrations and launch in Vancouver locations in the weeks ahead.

With full legalization pending, and a relatively unsophisticated and chaotic business space, the Cannabis industry will reward those dispensaries that can solidify their logistics and increase their online presence to reach patients. With the ParcelPal integration, a simple click on the “add-to-cart” button and consumers are ready to check out just as if they were ordering a consumer product from any other online store, and have the product delivered to them within the hour.

President Kelly Abbott states, “ParcelPal was founded on the principle of innovation. We are always striving for a better customer experience and seeking revenue streams that coincide with our business model. We believe entering into the Medical Marijuana market demonstrates this focus. We’re very excited to begin working in this growing industry and to start setting the precedents for delivery standards to our partner’s patients across Canada. This partnership is an impetus for expanding our operations across Canada.”

CEO Jason Moreau states, “Our integration will help the clients who have mobility issues, have crippling social anxiety, or who are elderly. Additionally, many medical marijuana patients are in professions where they don’t want to be seen going in and out of dispensaries.”

As part of ongoing plans to integrate with businesses in multiple verticals, ParcelPal will be launching and beta testing their marketplace app where consumers will have the ability to order food, retail goods, marijuana, and alcohol from one single source. A marketplace application reduces the need and cost of marketing products and engaging customers online. The ParcelPal application will drive customers to these businesses and take care of selling and delivering the product.

About ParcelPal Technology Inc.

ParcelPal is an iPhone and desktop computer service enabling consumers to shop from partner businesses and have items delivered locally within an hour through a fleet of crowd-sourced couriers. The Company offers on-demand delivery of merchandise from leading retailers, restaurants, and liquor stores in Vancouver, and soon in major cities Canada-wide.

Tony Amaradio – On Importance of Pursuing Daily Stewardship Goals

ALISO VIEJO, CA / ACCESSWIRE / January 27, 2017 / California’s prominent financial expert and visionary philanthropist, Tony
Amaradio
has advised on the principal steps in helping establish a successful state of personal wealth and resources. As founder of Select Portfolio Management Inc. and Select Money Management Inc., Amaradio has been the driving force behind some of the most successful financial plans for businesses and families across the country.

Understanding the impermanence of personal finance, Tony Amaradio advises people to think about the consequences of not managing it properly. He urges those who seek reasonable objectives to consider the difference between a mission and a vision, and create a plan accordingly. “First, it is vital that people, whether personally or collectively, establish their objectives in a way that can create obtainable and positive results.” He suggests after determining the vision and goals of each individual, the next step requires people to remain centered on Christ, and remember to remain humble while being stewards of God’s money and sharing it with others.

Another important aspect of reaching personal stewardship objectives is ensuring that people continue to put aside extra savings in order to create a fund to use in case of an emergency. Tony Amaradio, who is often guided by lessons from the Bible, tells us that people who save money are considered wiser than those who spend everything they have. “A saver is ready when God presents prospects and new challenges,” he says. “Whether people have a comfortable income or just enough, God always has a reason and purpose for how it can and will be spent.” Daily goals, which are met, will present chances for those to progress throughout their life and give back to their local communities.

Stewardship objectives are imperative for people to take responsibility for their actions and habits, remaining honest and thoughtful for those in less fortunate financial positions. When adequately assessing the risks of overspending and entering debt, Tony Amaradio considers it essential to avoid spending more than you have, both financially and spiritually. “Clearing yourself of debt is an incredibly cathartic accomplishment. When balancing finances, we have the opportunity to erase the past – both emotionally and economically.” This will lead to a more positive outcome where people can save for a more optimistic and fruitful future.

Tony Amaradio is the founder and Chief Strategist at Select Portfolio Management, Inc. and Select Money Management, Inc. He is known for developing one of the first comprehensive wealth management models in the country and many advanced tax, financial, and asset protection strategies with the assistance of his highly experienced team. A public speaker and a devoted Christian, Amaradio dedicates a good portion of his time and energy to philanthropic endeavors, where he advises individuals and families on how to prepare and manage their financial opportunities in line with God’s words. Along with his wife Carin, Tony devotes a substantial portion of his time to charity and worthwhile causes. The couple’s book, Faithful with Much, is recognized as an inspiring and practical guide to meaningful financial management and stewardship.
