Boniface Ogunti Came From Liberia To America In Search Of Becoming An Entrepreneur; He Ended Up Accomplishing That And Much More

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / August 31, 2020 / Boniface Ogunti was a young entrepreneur who refused to let anything get his way. At 16, he was already working hard to make sure that he had money to get by. At 17 and 18 he was making thousands of dollars. He decided to come to America to pursue his dreams further and become an entrepreneur.

"My name is Boniface Ogunti. I started in business at a young age of 16 year old. When I was 16 years old, I used to airbrush sneakers for people in my town and then when I was 17 to 18 years old, I also started a recording studio with $2,000 of the money I made from airbrushing shoes and then when I was 18 years old I got into sales selling tv service door to door and in big box retailers. When I was 19 years old, I was also selling car insurance and when I was selling car insurance someone told me about selling products online. I got into selling products online. That's how I started my online store and the first year running my online store, I made $2.5 million dollars using Facebook ads. I came to the United States of America because there was a war in my country in West Africa, Liberia. When I moved to the United States, I left my mom in Africa and I was living with my grandma. I went to high school like everyone else, but I dropped out to start my online business. I saw my mom on my 24th birthday on February 18, 2020. I was born February 18 1996," Boniface recounts.

Boniface now runs an e-commerce business as well as a shipping business. He has had many challenges in his path that have prevented him from doing his best. Boniface conquered them all, but the most crucial part of him getting through the obstacles was finding a good mentor to help lead him through the tough parts of the business.

"I run an e-com business and also a shipping/ transportation business in my country, West Africa, Liberia, and also a consulting business educating people on how to escape their 9 to 5 job. My biggest challenges were the resources that I needed, as in a mentor who already went through the ups and downs and learning from them. When I was starting, I tried to figure it out on my own and it was hard; it wasn't until I met my first mentor. Having a mentor is the key to shortcut your success. Everyone needs a mentor," Boniface explains.

The other important aspect to Boniface's success was having a good mindset. This is the key to many successful businesses. You must have an entrepreneurial mindset in order to get far in the business world. This is because the business world is not like the normal nine to five and takes a different approach.

"Mindset is everything in starting a business, Business is a mirror whatever you do will always reflect in your business. People don't have business problems, they have life problems that reflect in their business," Boniface states.

Boniface's next projects involve a lot of hard work in his home country. He is not slowing down despite the difficulties in the world right now. He is motivated by his desire to help his home country.

"For my next project this year, I'm investing in Africa. I'm building a luxury home in West Africa, Liberia and building middle income homes for the people. I want to make an impact in my country," Boniface says.

Revived Furniture Removal: A Brief Introduction

KENNETT SQUARE, PA / ACCESSWIRE / August 31, 2020 / Furniture is a multimillion-dollar industry, and for good reason. We all need good, comfortable furniture. Unfortunately, much like the clothing industry these days, it has steadily morphed from an item of pride and utility into one of fashion and disposability. This is no good, especially in a world already facing such intense, worrying environmental concerns. So, we decided to do something about it.

What We Do

Here at Revived, we firmly believe that a cleaner, happier, more sustainable world is one worth striving for. We're playing our part by focusing on furniture. Every year, 98 million tons of it is emptied into junkyards and landfills, and that's just in the United States alone. It is beyond wasteful and our business is centered around keeping this from happening. We fight against this senseless waste by offering comprehensive furniture and appliance removal with a twist. Instead of simply taking your stuff to the dump for you, we put in the hard work to refurbish, upscale, and rehome your gently used items.

This then saves you from dumping fees, brings joy to someone else, keeps stuff out of our landfills, and helps us have a more environmentally friendly, sustainable world. This also helps empower the members of our community. Just since January, we've actually been able to save and sell over 1000 pieces of furniture and help countless people facing financial hardship. It's a figure we're proud of and we can't wait to see where we go from here.

Who We Are

So, now that you know a little bit about what we do, who are we? In a brief summary, we are a small team of passionate people – individuals committed to helping the world and the people in it. Currently, we are made up of 6 employees, a box truck, and a warehouse, but our roots are even more modest than our current operations. Revived Furniture Removal was originally founded by one man, Stone Ross, a 26-year-old from Kennett Square, Pennsylvania. After seeing a rise in the amount of furniture being thrown away or shoved outside with a "free" sign on it, he started throwing some in the back of his Toyota and selling them for a profit after often having to do little more than some light cleaning.

Eventually, this grew in scale with Stone renting several 26' box trucks every week before finally taking the risk to buy his own, using his previous marketing and eCommerce knowledge to turn his little side job into a full-fledged business. A warehouse quickly became part of the equation as did a full-time crew, and Revived Furniture Removal was born. Now the goal is to grow our team even further, to create a partner network, and find hundreds of other likeminded individuals who want to bring eco-friendly junk and furniture removal to their own states, towns, and neighborhoods. Basically, we want to usher in a new era of sustainability where green removal alternatives become the norm and our environment has just a little bit less to contend with. It's a big goal, we know. But we are up for the task.

What Sets Us Apart

The answer to this question is simultaneously straightforward and complicated: pretty much everything! Our eco-friendly removable service is the very first of its kind and it's certainly taking the idea of what removal can look like to completely different places than ever before. As our founder says,

"Gone are the days of thinking that we can just keep infinitely producing furniture and home goods with a finite ecosystem that operates at its own pace. Companies that act today to become more sustainable and operate in line with our earth will be the leading way companies of tomorrow."

We're not here to simply make a lot of money throwing your stuff away. You could do that, yourself. Our role is to turn your trash into treasure and get it into the hands of someone who will really enjoy it, and all while doing it quickly, efficiently, and at prices both affordable and transparent.

We believe in putting the planet and people first. We will always salvage what we can and will never hide fees or hike up a price even if the job takes less time than expected. As far as we know, the other guys don't do that. Community empowerment is also at our center. We might make a profit doing what we do, but we still highly encourage other people outside our sphere to get in on all the fun, too. If you can refurbish your own items, go for it! We love sustainability and a can-do attitude.

Where Can You Find Us?

Interested in our services now that you know a little bit more about our company? That's great! For more information, a quote, or to book a removal slot today, you can visit our website at https://revivedfurnitureremoval.com. Furniture removal is our specialty, but we also offer general junk removal, estate cleanouts, commercial cleanouts, e-waste removal, and more! You can also follow us at RevivedUSA on Facebook and Instagram or can even check out what our founder is up to by following him on his personal Instagram @StonyBalony.

CLS Holdings Reports Fiscal Year End 2020 Financial Results

Revenues increased by 41%
Gross profit increased by 16%

LAS VEGAS, NV / ACCESSWIRE / August 31, 2020 / CLS Holdings USA, Inc. (OTCQB:CLSH)(CSE:CLSH) ("CLS" or the ‘‘Company''), a diversified cannabis company operating as Cannabis Life Sciences, today announced its financial results for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2020.

Key Fiscal Year End 2020 Financial Accomplishments and Operational Highlights:

Total revenues were $11,917,629 rising from $8,459,048 reported for fiscal year 2019
Gross margin expanded 16% to 50% as compared to 43% in fiscal year 2019
The total number of customers served increased 70.48% from 134,009 in fiscal year 2019 to 228,458
Our new production lab was completed and put into service in April 2020

"I am so proud of the achievements made over the course of our fiscal year. We have implemented some meaningful operational changes, added some terrific talent to the organization, completed two renovations and expansions of the dispensary and completed our state of the art production facility. In spite of the competitive landscape in Nevada we were able to grow revenue and increase our gross profit margins. Our "People Power Profits" mantra is paying dividends and I am proud that all our employees have been provided a safe working environment during these challenging times. We are a local company who will continue to provide our community with a robust menu of safe cannabis products at fair price points. I am also thrilled to see the momentum that has been built in the first quarter of our fiscal year and it is showing with some very impressive revenue growth.

Our marketing and production teams have worked tirelessly in the past 4 months revamping all aspects of the City Trees brand. The launch of this new environmentally friendly and sustainable line of packaged products will be available to the public beginning 9/1.

We are poised to experience another year of substantial growth from our platform and look forward to sharing our achievements."

Andrew Glashow – President/COO

"In my many years in various businesses I have never encountered such a challenging environment. To witness growth under conditions which forced us to change our business model twice in the course of a 3 month period and come out stronger is a testament to the 80+ people who work for this amazing company. I could not be more proud."

Jeff Binder – Chairman/CEO

Fiscal Year End 2020 Results

Total revenues were $11,917,629, a 41% increase compared to $8,459,048 reported in fiscal year 2019. This increase reflects record growth in sales at our Oasis dispensary despite a brief downturn in sales at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. Implementation of robust health and safety measures and swift adaptation to expanded delivery and curbside sales contributed to our ability to achieve record net revenue growth in an otherwise uncertain environment. We also completed two renovations and expansions to the dispensary prior to this required adaptation that have improved customer experience in our storefront, and allowed us to remain agile in our ever-evolving marketplace. Our continued improvements in inventory purchasing and implementation of new processes also led to a 16% expansion in gross margin to 50% in fiscal year 2020 from 43% in the prior fiscal year. Improvements to our manufacturing division have also been successfully implemented, marked by the completion of an expansive innovation and extraction lab at City Trees in April 2020. Coupled with a shift to more sustainable packaging and new design criteria for the brand, these improvements have set up our Nevada subsidiaries for continued success going forward.

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") totaled $8,776,876 as compared with $26,472,057 in the prior fiscal year. SG&A in fiscal year 2019 included $15,857,068 in one-time costs associated with the acquisition of our Oasis dispensary and City Trees production operation, which expenses were not incurred in fiscal year 2020. SG&A in fiscal year 2020 also declined as we successfully trimmed professional fees and other parent company costs, and in general streamlined our operations.

During the fiscal year 2020, we incurred a large non-cash impairment charge on goodwill as a result of the decline in our stock price. Because our stock price provides a basis for our enterprise value, this decline meant that we were required to write-down the value of this intangible asset by $25,185,003, a one-time write-down that has not occurred in prior fiscal years. This devaluation is not reflective of any tangible loss of assets, and our working capital remains sound. This decline in share price will not significantly impact our current or upcoming projects.

As a result of this large non-cash impairment charge in fiscal year 2020, our net loss was $30,657,973 compared to a net loss of $27,619,057 in the prior fiscal year. Excluding this one time non-cash impairment charge, our net loss for fiscal year 2020 would have been $5,472,970, an improvement of $22,146,087, or 80.18% compared to our fiscal year 2019 net loss.

Adjusted EBITDA totaled ($2,082,338) as compared to ($22,882,678) in the prior fiscal year. (Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain items as outlined in Table 1, Reconciliation of Net Income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA.)

FinCanna Acquires All Assets of Royalty Portfolio Co. Green Compliance

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / August 31, 2020 / FinCanna Capital Corp. ("FinCanna") (CSE:CALI)(OTCQB:FNNZF), is pleased to announce that it has acquired all the assets and economic interests of its royalty portfolio company Green Compliance Inc. ("Green Compliance"). Green Compliance's ezGreen software provides state-of-the-art enterprise compliance and point-of-sale (POS) software solutions for licensed cannabis dispensaries and cultivators in the United States.

The asset acquisition occurred as a result of FinCanna and Green Compliance being unable to reach a resolution regarding the restructuring of their royalty agreement. As a result, FinCanna and Green Compliance came to an agreement whereby Green Compliance would assign all of its assets to FinCanna in exchange for FinCanna foregoing its rights to recover its royalty investment from Green Compliance.

The original royalty agreement called for FinCanna to receive a perpetual royalty equal to 10% of consolidated gross revenues of Green Compliance upon FinCanna funding US$3 million, subject to certain buyback conditions. FinCanna has funded $1.75 million to date. As a result of this equity re-structuring, FinCanna now owns 100% of the assets and economic interests of Green Compliance.

FinCanna CEO, Andriyko Herchak, comments, "We are very pleased with this outcome whereby we now own 100% of the assets, including the ezGreen software, and the economic interests of Green Compliance. We believe the ezGreen software is the best on the market and we see great potential for sales growth. We also want to acknowledge the cooperation of Green Compliance shareholders in completing this transaction. We will provide updates with respect to our future plans for ezGreen and are confident that this acquisition will be a strong win for our shareholders."

Green Compliance's ezGreen software is the only HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) certified point-of-sale software in the market. It was developed with Automated Healthcare Solutions ("AHCS"), one of the largest point of care software solution providers, with an 18-year operational history in the medical sector and supports 3,500+ active physician operated clinics and dispensaries. The ezGreen software was created to provide similar compliance guidelines, standards, and disciplines to the licensed cannabis industry at the U.S. state and federal levels as is required in the pharmaceutical industry.

The ezGreen proprietary Business Intelligence Dashboard (BID) is a proven front-to-back compliance solution that supports both HIPAA and State Cannabis Control Boards by ensuring secure customer data storage and transmission that protects customers from potential security breaches and financial and criminal liability resulting from such violations.

The ezGreen BID platform is comprised of a robust suite of tools & features including,

free business analytics, customizable for individual dispensary retailers needs for sales, inventory, accounting, and workflow management capabilities
a proven comprehensive tax reporting solution to automate essential revenue reporting at the city, county and state levels
full integration with Metrc (Marijuana Enforcement Tracking Reporting Compliance) the mandatory compliance reporting system that provides, tracking and tracing for government agencies regulating legalized marijuana in California and twelve other states
a comprehensive rewards program along with API integration for digital menu and home delivery applications.

Green Compliance has continued to develop and operate its POS system throughout the Covid pandemic. Currently focused on California and certain other states, Green Compliance has built up a robust affiliate network and has been operating successfully in an MSO (Multi Site Operation) in California. Green Compliance has also signed an alliance agreement with one of the largest distributors in California.

Deepak Agarwal’s Tips for Managing Teams Across Countries and Continents

ATLANTA, GA / ACCESSWIRE / August 31, 2020 / As COVID-19 continues to impact companies around the world, it's clear that working remotely may be the new norm. However, if working remotely isn't handled correctly, it can isolate your workforce and lead to declines in employee engagement and productivity. Taking the right steps to manage a remote team will ensure your employees stay protected and productive, regardless of what time zone they're in.

Like many successful entrepreneurs, Deepak "Dee" Agarwal had to grow and adapt his business to expand his team's size, while still striving to maintain engagement, organization and unity. Deepak Agarwal has founded several companies in the U.S. and abroad, spanning retail to business process outsourcing. With teams located across the globe, Dee has experienced many challenges when it comes to managing a remote workforce.

"It can be tough to create a productive work environment when business hours don't match," says Dee Agarwal. "But the fundamentals of management remain the same: create open channels of communication between you and your teams to allow key decisions to be made effectively."

The following are Deepak's top tips for managing teams across countries and continents.

1. Be Mindful of Your Team's Time Zone

Successfully managing a remote team means allocating employee resources efficiently. For global teams, implementing a rotating schedule to accommodate regular office hours for other time zones will reduce stagnation and sleep deprivation experienced by those working across regions. Additionally, if you have three teams across three different time zones, staggering eight-hour shifts will ensure that your business is operating around the clock, while being considerate of regular office hours for your teams' local time zones. Dee Agarwal notes, "Preventing workplace fatigue caused by scheduling conflicts will not only increase productivity but will also prevent absenteeism that can immobilize workflow."

Effective rotation programs can vary depending on the size of the organization. While larger companies are more likely to implement a job rotation program, global businesses of all sizes might want to consider the program as a contingency for when key employees are absent due to illness.

2. Empower Your Team When Working Remotely

When conducting team meetings with employees in different time zones, make sure to include everyone in the conversation so that individuals do not feel undervalued. Employees need to know they are part of the company's overall success. Without face-to-face communication it can become easy to forget to highlight individual achievements. Deepak Agarwal says, "Even if everyone doesn't have the opportunity to voice their opinion while working remotely, something as simple as an email of thanks or sharing the success of an individual can boost company morale tenfold."

3. Create Team Bonding Exercises

When regular team lunches, afterwork drinks, or annual retreats are not an option, there are still plenty of ways to keep employees feeling connected. For example, consider hosting a virtual trivia night or happy hour. Or have lunches catered to your teams' homes and enjoy it virtually. If you feel like your team's motivation is lagging, consider bringing in a motivational guest speaker.

"Anything that facilitates team communication is a positive," notes Dee Agarwal. "A happy, engaged and empowered team leads to success. Of course, it's important to make sure everyone is on board and to listen to your employees' suggestions before moving forward with team-building exercises."

4. Measure Your Team's Productivity

Tracking team productivity can be problematic when working remotely. Project management software such as Monday and Asana are useful tools to help ensure work is completed on time and up to standard. The software allows managers to check in on project progress, as well as input employee tasks in one central system. It also helps to show responsibilities, status, priority, as well as company-specific information. "A system that provides a quantitative way of evaluating productivity is key for managers working remotely," notes Dee Agarwal. "The software not only works as a motivational tool but can also provide a detailed explanation of key areas where employees can improve."

Dr. Kevin Sadati Is The Most Loved Surgeon In Orange County: Find Out How He Grew His State-Of-The-Art Practice, Which Includes A Luxury Spa

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / August 31, 2020 / Dr. Kevin Sadati is a highly specialized plastic surgeon with extraordinary surgical skills. He is also very passionate about art, and is a painter and sculptor. He is best known as the creator of the technique "Natural Lift," which is his lower face and neck lift. His Triple-C plication of the SMAS technique is what makes this revolutionary procedure so unique. He tightens the SMAS also known as face and neck muscles gradually in three layers to make sure his patients look natural and not pulled.

Through years of experience, Dr. Sadati has been able to combine his medical knowledge and artistic skill into the practice of plastic surgery, which leads to amazing results for his clients. His state-of-the-art facility is conveniently located next to Fashion Island in Newport Beach, California.

"We believe that our patients deserve the best, so we have designed a surgical facility that is truly state-of-the-art, fully-equipped with technologically advanced devices and instruments imported from Germany, known for their unrivaled precision in surgical manufacturing. Our facility is accredited by the AAAHC to provide the highest level of patient care and safety." Dr. Sadati shares.

The technique he created, the "Natural Lift" has led to increased notoriety for Dr. Sadati. He has appeared in the NBC television show "The Doctors," and has also been voted "Best Overall Facial Rejuvenation" and "Best Aesthetic Doctor" by his peers.

His practice in Newport Beach, California is called "The Gallery of Cosmetic Surgery & Aesthetic Lounge," and combines his love for medicine and also for art.

"We provide patients with surgical services in the surgical facility ‘The Aesthetic Studio' downstairs, and the rest of the staff offers non-surgical facial and body rejuvenation services in the Aesthetic Lounge or the luxury medical spa on the second floor." Dr. Sadati states.

Dr. Sadati has performed over 4,000 facial rejuvenation procedures using his "Triple-C Plication" technique for facelift & neck lift surgeries which was featured in the American Journal of Cosmetic Surgery, and the Journal of Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery. He uses local anesthesia and twilight sedation, without the need for general anesthesia to perform his facial surgeries. This technique has been shown to have less complication rate, offering long lasting results, and faster recovery.

Dr. Sadati educates his colleagues in plastic surgery conferences around the nation to share his expertise in facial plastic surgery.

Dr Sadati has been practicing in Newport Beach, Orange County for the last 15 years, where there is no shortage of plastic surgeons. Yet, Dr. Sadati has been voted "Best Cosmetic Surgeon" in Orange County for the past six years.

"Before I started my career in Newport Beach about 15 years ago, I was working in a corporate medical practice with many plastic surgeons that never felt I could offer the services I wanted for my patients." Dr. Sadati adds. "Therefore, I wanted to start my own medical practice the way I envisioned it."

Back then, Dr. Sadati started his own practice slowly, but with a clear business plan and vision. He began to hire more employees and eventually decided to look for the ideal architect to build the luxury medical practice that he had always dreamed of.

"As with everything I do, because of the level of planning we undertook, the final product is pretty much in line with what we initially designed." Dr. Sadati explains. "It is much like planning a surgery; I never go into it trying to figure out what to do. I plan everything ahead of time with the intended result of being successful."

At the end of the day, the patient is the most important factor for Dr. Sadati, who makes sure to take the time to listen carefully to his patients' concerns and help them set realistic goals with a personalized plan to achieve it.

Dr. Sadati's innovative office design has ensured the safety and well-being of his staff and patients during this pandemic due to his advanced planning.

"Our biggest challenge is to keep my staff and patients safe. I do extensive COVID testing in my office to eliminate any risks." Dr. Sadati says. "I feel my office is part of the solution, since we can detect patients who might have COVID-19 and can detect asymptomatic patients and inform them to isolate and prevent the spread of the virus."

Despite the current challenges brought about by COVID-19, Dr. Sadati continues to have clear objectives for the rest of the year and the near future.

"We are looking to continually expand our practice to offer a more comprehensive experience every day." Dr. Sadati shares. "We want to bring on more incredible surgeons to offer an even wider variety of specialties."

Currently, Dr. Sadati's luxury medical spa is offering the best non-surgical treatments from botox and fillers to micronneding, lasers, facials, coolsculpting and more.

Advance Wound Care Market- Key Takeaways

Home care applications are witnessing fast growth, owing to high hospital costs, and reduced risks of hospital acquired infections.
Diabetic wounds such as foot ulcers are major contributors to the requirements for advance wound care solutions to minimize patient morbidity and mortality.
North America is a major market for advance wound care, supported by rising number of surgeries, and investments into modern wound care devices.

Advance Wound Care Market- Driving Factors

The advance wound care market is primarily driven by the strongly expanding population of geriatrics and adoption of surgical procedures.
Advances in care solutions for diabetic foot ulcers, venous leg ulcers, and pressure ulcers generate major opportunities.

Advance Wound Care Market- Major Restraints

High cost of availing advance wound care treatment is a major challenge hindering growth.
Choices made in terms of the appropriate wound care therapy is often not based on evidence, potentially delaying care.

COVID-19 Impact on Advance Wound Care Market

The coronavirus pandemic is expected to have a marginal impact on the advance wound care market. Greater risks from the virus for diabetics and obese patients are generating greater risk of chronic wounds which in turn drives demand for advance wound care. On the other hand, wound care has been designated by many governments around the world as non-essential medical treatment, during the lockdown period. Consequently, delays in elective medical procedures will limit the scope of growth of the market during the contagion. Demand for home care applications will remain strong and continue to grow even at the conclusion of the global pandemic.
