Tree Leads Today Sees 595% Growth Year Over Year

CHADDS FORD, Pa. /ScoopCloud/ -- Tree Leads Today (treeleadstoday.com) has grown more than five-fold during the past year, which its founders say is a strong testament to the effectiveness of their tree marketing program.

There are a lot of marketing companies out there that promise to give businesses an edge over their competition, but very few of them actually deliver on what they say. Normally, you'll have to pay a lot of upfront fees and/or sign onto a long-term agreement before you ever find out what you are really getting. Don Dowd and Jason Lomberg, the founders of Tree Leads Today, started their company with a different approach.

They sought to develop an effective marketing system geared specifically toward the tree care industry, one that would actually deliver the results they promised and make clients pay only for the leads that they received. Going into their fifth year in business, this has proven to be a win/win formula for everyone.

"We started several years ago marketing our services to tree companies in Pennsylvania and on the East Coast," says Don Dowd, Tree Leads Today co-founder. "After proving our concept with tree companies in our local area, we scaled up and went national. Now with so many satisfied clients, word has spread quickly, and our program has caught on like wildfire. Currently, we are up almost 600% year-over-year."

Tree Leads Today is now in over 40 states. They service tree companies from Washington and Oregon down to Beverly Hills 90210, from Waterford, Maine down to Key West, Florida and all points in-between. Last year, they were a featured vendor at the Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA) Expo in Pittsburgh, where they received rave reviews for their marketing program from those who were in attendance.

What Makes Tree Leads Today Different?

Over the years, Tree Leads Today has tested and tweaked its marketing methods, and they continually make improvements in order to stay on the cutting edge. Using a proprietary blend of online and offline marketing methods that has been perfected over the past five years, they are able to generate leads that are high quality and more likely to convert into paying customers for local tree care companies. Companies are assigned a series of zip codes based on their needs and size and based on the availability of zip codes.

"One of the important things that differentiates us is that we work exclusively with tree care companies," Dowd continues. "Our team is focused entirely on generating leads for our tree care clients, and we know this industry inside and out. For local tree companies, our in-depth industry expertise is comparable to what you would expect from a large marketing firm with huge staff and a much bigger budget - the type of firm that would be beyond reach cost wise for many of these companies. We partner with one only company who receives a series of zip codes, and smaller companies are able to benefit from the expertise of our team and the efficient and cost-effective marketing methodologies we have developed."

There are several key benefits of the tree leads today program that make it stand out from other marketing companies:
* Clients pay only for the leads that they receive;
* Unlike many of the large home service leads providers, leads are 100% exclusive to the client - this means that there is never any worry about getting into a bidding war with competitors;
* Leads are geo-targeted by zip code, which saves companies significantly on travel costs and time, allowing them to work more efficiently. As a result, they are able to effectively double the number of estimates and jobs they are able to secure;
* Leads start coming in usually within one to two weeks after the program is implemented;
* There are no long-term contracts to sign - everything is month-to-month.

"When you sign on with a typical marketing company, you are the one who is usually asked to take all of the risks. We treat this relationship like a true partnership - an 'at will' partnership where either side can walk away at any time if it no longer makes sense to work together. And because our clients receive a series of zip codes/territories that are exclusive and completely locked down, they are not afraid to tell others about the success we are delivering. This has ignited something of a grassroots movement."

With the exponential growth Tree Leads Today is experiencing, territories are starting to fill up, and in some areas, tree companies are on waiting lists to get into the territories they want.

"Given the growth we've seen, we are starting to get waiting lists. There are still a lot of available territories out there, but if you want to get the zip codes you want, it is best to get in touch with us sooner rather than later."

Bill Shipp is the vice president of commercial banking for the People's Bank and Trust, a bank that specializes in providing best in class equipment financing for tree services companies in the Delaware Valley.

Equipment financing can be a risky business, but Bill says he is a lot more confident about the deal when a tree company is working with Tree Leads Today: "I love working with tree care companies that partner with Tree Leads Today, because I know that these companies will benefit greatly from the significant growth in revenue they receive from the leads TLT generates."

SBA Publishes Guidance on Which CARES Act Provisions Require Immediate Action by Health and Retirement Plan Sponsors

ATLANTA, Ga. /ScoopCloud/ -- Independent, full-service employee benefits consulting firm Strategic Benefits Advisors (SBA) issued a statement today summarizing provisions of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act that require action on the part of health and retirement plan sponsors.

"The CARES Act calls upon plan sponsors to act swiftly in adopting measures that will ease the financial burden of COVID-19 on individuals," said SBA Founding Principal Mindy Zatto. "Plan sponsors should coordinate with their healthcare providers immediately so they may begin complying with the law's mandatory provisions. While most retirement plan provisions are optional, they are nonetheless time-sensitive and call for coordination with the plan sponsor's recordkeeper and actuary. Any necessary plan amendments won't be required until the end of the 2022 plan year."

Required Health Plan Provisions

Health plan sponsors must comply with the following provisions expanding access to healthcare for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients:
* Coverage of COVID-19 Testing
Plans must cover the cost of approved COVID-19 tests and their administration. Test providers should be reimbursed at a previously negotiated rate, if applicable. In the absence of a previously negotiated rate, plan sponsors may reimburse providers an amount equal to the publicly listed cash price of the service or negotiate a lesser reimbursement.

* Coverage of COVID-19 Preventive Services
Plans must also cover, without participant cost-sharing, qualified coronavirus preventive services and vaccines recommended by the United States Preventive Services Task Force or Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Required Defined Contribution (DC) Plan Provisions

DC plan participants who are due a required minimum distribution for 2020 may elect to not take the distribution without incurring any penalties.

Optional Defined Contribution (DC) Plan Provisions

DC plan sponsors may choose to extend the following benefits to plan participants who self-certify that (a) they have been diagnosed with COVID-19; (b) their spouse or dependent has been diagnosed with COVID-19; or (c) they have experienced certain other adverse financial consequences of COVID-19 as specified by the Secretary of the Treasury:

* Coronavirus-Related Distribution
Plans may allow a maximum $100,000 "coronavirus-related distribution" that must be taken by December 31, 2020. Early withdrawal penalties do not apply, and distributions are not eligible for rollover. However, a recipient of a coronavirus-related distribution has the right to pay the distribution back within three years, in which case it will be treated as a rollover contribution. The taxable amount of a coronavirus-related distribution can be spread pro-rata over three tax years.

* Increased Loan Limits
Qualified plans may increase loan limits from $50,000 to $100,000 and from 50% of the vested balance to 100% of the vested balance for loans made between March 27 and September 23, 2020.

* Delayed Loan Repayment
Plans may delay due dates for one year for individuals with outstanding loans whose repayment would normally be due between March 27 and December 31, 2020, allowing an extension beyond the normal five-year cap.

Optional Defined Benefit (DB) Plan Provisions

* Option to Defer Single-Employer Plan Funding
Plan sponsors may delay payment of any minimum required contributions that would ordinarily have been due during calendar year 2020 to January 1, 2021. The amount of each delayed contribution must be increased to reflect the interest accrued between the original due date and the actual payment date.

* Benefit Restriction Relief
For purposes of applying benefit restrictions under Code Section 436, plan sponsors may elect to use the prior plan year's adjusted funding target attainment percentage as the adjusted funding target attainment percentage for plans years that include calendar year 2020. This may allow some plans to avoid triggering certain benefit restrictions in 2020 that would have otherwise applied.

The full text of the CARES Act can be found here. To speak with Strategic Benefits Advisors' experienced team of benefits consultants about the potential impact of this law on your plans, call 770-551-8989.

In Uncertain Times, Olerio Homes Breaks Ground on New Development in North Dallas

DALLAS, Texas /ScoopCloud/ -- In uncertain times, Lou Olerio, President of Olerio Homes safely continues forward breaking ground on Modella Park, a gated neighborhood with 24 soft-contemporary patio homes.

Modella Park will feature four different floor plans designed by Watson Design Group. Beginning in the high $400's, the location is ideal being just south of Webb Chapel and Forest in Dallas. Olerio saw a need and an opportunity to bring new construction at an affordable price to a location that is still convenient to central Dallas.

Olerio, who has built close to 300 homes in Dallas, Texas says this development is exciting due to the combination of price point, quality product and location.

Unique Resume Gives Olerio Insight

As a Stockbroker during stock market crash of 2001 and developing Olerio Homes during the downturn in 2008, Olerio goes into the COVID-19 crisis with economic advice and experience.

He emphasizes taking precautions and altering the way we work but not stopping, especially with home building deemed an essential business operating under given guidelines.

"In any disruption, there are always opportunities. There are ways to identify the opportunities and you have to figure out how to take advantage of them. While it doesn't feel like it at the time, hindsight is 2020."

Olerio continues saying, "Since the city is on a shelter-in-place there are no open houses or showing and we will definitely see a slowdown of houses going under contract. But that will create opportunities to buy where people are getting cold feet."

For those wondering why it is good economically for construction to continue, with safety precautions implemented by the CDC and the City of Dallas, Olerio explains it is due to labor costs, "If we shut down completely that would be a major blow to the economic opportunities in North Texas leading to a labor shortage. If we keep working, we will reduce the pressures that come along with price increases that are associated with a shortage of labor."

He goes on to explain this further emphasizing the number of people it employs and that housing is always in demand. Having housing prices rise due to lack of demand is not what the economy needs.

As a company, Olerio Homes is utilizing software and taking advantage of this time. They are upgrading their website, implementing new software that will allow clients to view actual sections virtually in the homes and having 3-D models of new construction homes created.

About Olerio Homes

With an eye for classical design that follows innovative function, Olerio Homes (www.oleriohomes.com/) creates comfortable homes with timeless appeal. A passion for making the Dallas-Fort Worth area the best place on earth to call home guides everything they do.

According to a recent statement released by the Red Cross, which collects 40 percent of the U.S. blood supply, more than 12,000 blood drives have been canceled across the country as of March 30, leading to an estimated 325,000 fewer blood donations.

Chartered in 1917, the American Red Cross of Northeast Georgia provides direct service to 23 Georgia counties by supporting the collection, testing and distribution of blood and blood components in the region, providing emergency resources for military families, facilitating lifesaving training in first aid, CPR and use an AED and helping people and communities impacted by disasters. Red Cross Month is a nationwide tradition begun by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1943.

"FormFree shares our passion for serving our nation's veterans and communities in need," said Marlon Trone, executive director of the American Red Cross of Northeast Georgia. "We thank them for their continual generosity and look forward to working alongside them for the betterment of our community for years to come."

FormFree has participated in numerous community awareness and service events hosted with the Red Cross of Northeast Georgia since the company's founding in 2008. Brent Chandler joined the Red Cross of Northeast Georgia's board of directors in 2017.

ViewTech Borescopes Continues Business During COVID-19

TRAVERSE City, Mich. /ScoopCloud/ -- Because a video borescope is a crucial inspection tool for many industries, the COVID-19 virus has not stopped business for ViewTech Borescopes. While most of ViewTech's staff is working remotely from home, there is an essential employee that is onsite to continue shipping and receiving the VJ-3 mechanical articulating video borescope at their northern Michigan headquarters.

Regarding the ever-changing Coronavirus pandemic, ViewTech's General Manager Sean O'Connor stated "Outstanding customer service has been a hallmark of our business since I founded the company in 2008.

I am confident we will all get through this period and will come out on the other side better than ever. As always, thank you for putting your trust and confidence in ViewTech."

In addition, while ViewTech had planned on exhibiting at many trade shows throughout North America in 2020, all events have been postponed, rescheduled or canceled for the foreseeable future.

As many industries have been impacted by the effects of this global pandemic, ViewTech wants to ensure those that depend on video borescopes for their nondestructive testing(NDT) and remove visual inspections(RVI), that they will continue to extend standard tradeshow pricing discounts to those who were schedule to attend the following events:

Arizona-based healthcare technology startup, Dollar Care, Inc. has announced the introduction of its DollarCARE online platform

PHOENIX, Ariz. /ScoopCloud/ -- The DollarCARE platform (www.dollarcare.com) enables individuals with no health insurance or high deductible plans to search and find providers near them that offer the lowest prices on medical and dental procedures, treatments and services. Individuals can select a procedure followed by a location and instantly access the average market prices in their area followed by a list of providers with low, transparent prices.

"Given the unfortunate circumstances we find ourselves in, we will likely see more and more individuals with no insurance and or with very high deductible plans who are paying insane amounts for procedures and services," says Mack Baniameri, cofounder of Dollar Care, Inc. "The reason is because consumers have no idea how much a medical or dental procedure costs until the bill arrives. And most importantly, consumers have no easy way to shop for best prices for medical and dental needs. Our goal is to make healthcare more affordable and consumer friendly. We do that by negotiating fair prices with high quality providers and passing on the savings to the consumers."

The DollarCARE platform also empowers independent healthcare providers to compete and grow their business by attracting cash pay patients. Healthcare providers that offer low prices on the DollarCARE platform, can directly connect with consumers who shop online for best medical and dental deals.

"The fact that the Trump Administration will require all hospitals across the country to provide clear prices for all of their procedures starting January 2021 proves that the time for hidden and inflated healthcare prices is over," says Baniameri. "If a consumer can search for the best prices on hotels and airline tickets, they should have the same ability to shop for best prices for healthcare procedures and services."

DAPA Products Shares Reasons to Upgrade Product Quality

JASPER, Ala. /ScoopCloud/ -- DAPA Products, a window and door components manufacturer, shares reasons to upgrade supplies with virgin raw materials. DAPA realized early in their manufacturing establishment that many suppliers received less than quality products. DAPA wanted to change the industry. They provide quality supplies and stand behind each of their products, 100%. Suppliers around the globe depend on DAPA for high-quality supplies of extruded plastic products, window and door components, as well as upholstery products.

DAPA considers the following elements that make great products:

1. Streamlining the Process

When it comes to upholstery and fenestration products, streamlining involves three aspects. These are the system, the materials, and the process.

2. The System Is Key

The system of providing customers with excellent products does not include price consideration, according to DAPA. Their only concern is making the highest quality fenestration products. Through steady growth, DAPA began mixing materials and producing the DAPA Foam Spline. Foam spline was an innovation in the industry that significantly improved outcomes for screen industry workers.

3. The Right Materials

DAPA made it a mission from the beginning to use and produce only the highest quality of products. By using only the best virgin raw materials, DAPA can manufacture and provide this quality material in upholstery products. DAPA are specialists in the unique contours, complexity in design, and the highest precision requirements.

4. The Process Makes It Best

Due to the Foam Spline focus, DAPA increased its number of extrusion lines and production time to 24 hours a day. Along with the significant products of Foam Welt Cord and Foam Spline, DAPA provides multiple other products for this market and many others.

All companies can provide designs to order, but very few can give the order on time and with materials that last, as DAPA has always done.

5. Commitment

DAPA provides customers with the highest quality, on-time orders. This means competition, however, DAPA will not risk quality in order to give a cheaper cost. The quality that is provided to the customer will always remain the highest standards.

Aeroscape Defined as Essential Business During the COVID-19 Crisis

MIDVALE, Utah /ScoopCloud/ -- As everywhere else in this country, Aeroscape and its customers are impacted by the devastating COVID-19 outbreak. Voluntary stay-at-home decrees and temporary lockdowns for non-essential businesses and workers will most likely be part of the business landscape for several months to come. But, according to the National Association of Landscape Professionals, landscape services are deemed as essential businesses during this time of crisis.

Why Are Landscaping Services Essential During a Crisis?

Landscaping services protect the public health by treating lawns and green spaces in order to reduce the number of mosquitos, ticks and fleas that will thrive if they are not managed. This reduces the transmission of dangerous diseases that would provide a need for additional treatment to the already stressed medical systems in the state of Utah. Furthermore, services such as tree removal, if delayed may lead to additional property damage, injury or even death.

Studies have also shown that failure to maintain property and green spaces leads to higher crime rates and more incidences of accident and injury in those areas. This is especially important during the spring, because the failure to provide proper landscaping care at this time of the year may increase the amount and difficulty of maintaining that landscape later in the season.

Because landscape maintenance companies provide most of its services outside, there are far fewer chances of coming into close contact with other individuals during the average workday. Aeroscape has taken additional steps to protect our employees and clients by asking them to maintain social distancing when interacting with customers and other team members in the field, washing hands frequently, and cleaning and disinfecting the equipment and vehicles often. Aeroscape also provides daily updates and information to all staff, including posting notices on any safety procedures or recommendations from the local, state and federal government.

About Aeroscape Property Maintenance & Landscaping

Aeroscape Property Maintenance and Landscaping is a full-service landscape company that has been a leader in the residential and commercial landscape industry throughout the Salt Lake County and Utah County areas for over 15 years. Aeroscape has been awarded many prestigious awards and featured in numerous articles and is recognized for creating beautiful and high quality, sustainable landscapes that vary in scale and complexity based on the client's needs.

We've experienced some major setbacks from unforeseen forces before. Coronavirus is a test on the healthcare system, locally, regionally, and nationally.

How are we treating healthcare leaders and first responders?

FREEHOLD, N.J. /ScoopCloud/ -- Advanced Orthopedics and Sports Medicine Institute (AOSMI) is keeping its practice open and continuing to see patients with urgent and acute injuries, while following CDC recommendations for preventing exposure to the COVID-19 virus.

DocMagic Launches AutoPrep Technology, Enabling Total eClose™ to Accept Documents from Any Provider for Paperless eClosings

TORRANCE, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- DocMagic, Inc., the premier provider of fully-compliant loan document preparation, regulatory compliance and comprehensive eMortgage services, today announced the launch of AutoPrep, a new technology that enables the company's Total eClose™ platform to accept documents from any source - including non-e-enabled documents.

AutoPrep leverages sophisticated artificial intelligence, OCR and machine learning technologies to scan and parse documents, locate all signature and notary regions, then electronically tag them for eClosing, thus changing any document into a fully e-enabled document in seconds. As a result, lenders can use loan documents produced by virtually any document provider, from standard documents to partially e-enabled documents, with Total eClose and benefit from the technology's end-to-end, 100 percent paperless eClosing process.

AutoPrep can learn the nuances of specific documents and adjust accordingly going forward, identify whether signatures are improperly placed or missing, find e-tags placed by other providers, and even read documents that have been partially but not fully converted into e-enabled documents. In addition, because AutoPrep flags documents when it identifies situations that are outside the norm, closing personnel can be more productive by managing exceptions, rather than combing over every page of a document package.

"With AutoPrep, there isn't a single document that cannot be converted into a compliant e-enabled document and brought into Total eClose for electronic signature," said Dominic Iannitti, CEO of DocMagic. "While eClosings are more efficient, compliant, and enable the level of service consumers expect, they aren't as common as they should be. One reason is that some lenders are tied to systems that don't produce e-enabled documents. With AutoPrep, lenders can transition more quickly to an eClosing workflow bringing efficiency, consistency and significant improvement to the user experience."

AutoPrep is a feature of DocMagic's Total eClose platform, which was recognized as the mortgage industry's leading eClosing technology based on market share, overall satisfaction, and lender loyalty in STRATMOR Group's 2019 Mortgage Technology Insight Study. A comprehensive solution, it delivers a completely paperless workflow and seamlessly integrates every component of the closing process.

"DocMagic is known for its commitment to moving the mortgage industry forward with advancements like a 100 percent paperless end-to-end eClosing process," said Iannitti. "As the industry's eClosing leader, we are positioned to fill the gaps left by less advanced technologies. AutoPrep solves the longstanding and frustrating challenge that lenders face when they want to advance to eClosing, but are held back by their technology providers."

To learn more about AutoPrep, interested parties can sign up for a brief online demo of the new solution by emailing sales@docmagic.com.

About DocMagic:

DocMagic, Inc. is the leading provider of fully-compliant loan document preparation, compliance, eSign and eDelivery solutions for the mortgage industry. Founded in 1987 and headquartered in Torrance, Calif., DocMagic, Inc. develops software, mobile apps, processes and web-based systems for the production and delivery of compliant loan document packages.

I Think an Idea: Helping Start-Ups to Celebrities Build Brands for the Future

LOS ANGELES, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- There's no better time to build a brand than now. At least that's what Hugh Benjamin, founder, 'I Think an Idea,' a digital marketing agency, believes. He says, "It's time to 'plant seeds for the future' because the future is about to change and brands need to get up to speed. The world is in lockdown. Now's the time to think about what's ahead."

Company leaders are now asking questions like: "Do I really need that 10,000 square foot office or can we go virtual?" "Do we really need an in-house marketing staff or can we think outside the box?" COVID-19 is making people re-evaluate new ways of doing things.

Benjamin's visionary thinking has been helping businesses do just that since 2009. He works with them to rethink what they've always done. In fact, his agency has helped smaller businesses outrank large corporations like Home Depot, Walmart and Amazon on Google. His creative SEO strategies yield top Google rankings.

"While our agency's innovative strategies might not make sense today, they will create revenue and results in three to five years," he says.

That's likely why blockbuster companies such as Mercedes Benz, Hillstone Restaurants, PowerBlock, The Sliding Door Co., Guess Jeans and Aramark Uniform Services have put their trust in him to help with needs ranging from SEO and digital marketing to brand building, consulting, events and reputation management.

Benjamin combines his business savvy and creative ingenuity to create positive calls to action. He's a "company catalyst." He gets things moving in the right direction which aligns well with the company's mantra: Focus. Think. Results.

And, he gets results. Big ones. For example, he helped one company acquire 3,000 B2B accounts by building a virtual call center and innovating a face-to-face sales model to a phone webinar division that generated millions. This not only reduced overhead, but shifted the way the company does business. The 3,000 accounts were acquired in 17 months using virtual consultations like Join.Me and Zoom to convert and grow the company from startup to landing on the top-fastest growing companies in Fortune 1000, Bloomberg, LA Business Journal, Deloitte Top 100 and others.

In addition to working with large corporations, Benjamin also has a solid history working for celebrities and their businesses. Will and Jada Smith, Justin Timberlake, Magic Johnson, Stephen King and Mark Wahlberg are all on his roster. One of the creative projects he worked on for the Smiths landed in People Magazine.

Working with luxury real estate companies is also an 'I Think an Idea' niche. Airbnb, Luxury Retreats and VRBO owners reach out to the company to maximize occupancy and revenue generating ideas.

Most recently, 'I Think an Idea' worked to promote the exclusive Casa Fryzer mansion in Cabo San Lucas. Within the first month, his influence, PR and digital marketing expertise was a catalyst for a Joe Jonas and DNCE getaway. There was also interest in the property from large brands such as Revolve and Victoria's Secret to use the location for upcoming photo shoots.

'I Think an Idea' can help with services ranging from business development and branding to SEO, video content, PR, social media, web design and more.

"I help companies figure out where the holes are. Where are they losing revenue? Why? I get them to pay attention. That's why clients keep coming back for more," he says.

About Hugh Benjamin

Hugh Benjamin is used to hitting targets. In fact, he started his career in the military as a U.S marine where he was a recognized sharp shooter. He's got a proven track record for growing companies from two employees to 200 using his unique brand of high-energy and responsible scaling strategies. He's grown and assisted many companies with their marketing on and offline and his integrated business development approach has made him a leader in the field.

As a business coach/CEO for hire and working with companies across the U.S., Canada, Australia and New Zealand, Benjamin recently talked at the Sydney Convention Center to more than 10,000 people about business development and the importance of mindset. His diversified skill palette has landed him projects for companies doing 400 to 900 million in revenue as well as for companies just getting off the ground. His systems and scalability create sustainable growth.

The future is here. Build it and they will come.

Pre-med Son and Father Tackle COVID-19 Testing Center Challenges

LAGUNA HILLS, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- In response to the COVID-19 pandemic affecting every corner of the world, a 24-year-old pre-medical student teamed up with his father to design and manufacture the Mobile Pathogen Testing Unit (MPTU) to be used to combat this viral outbreak. Chase Berman, a current Infectious Diseases researcher at University of California Irvine, and his father, Christopher Berman, have brought forth a mobile unit converted from a 20-foot shipping container, capable of mass viral testing in a highly efficient manner.

"An overarching challenge the world is facing is the lack of access to COVID-19 testing centers," says Chase. "There is an underlying subset of challenges within this scope, which the MPTU addresses: accessibility of tests to citizens in an organized fashion, ample workspace for healthcare workers to easily maneuver high quantity sampling, and staff protection from the environment and weather. The MPTU has a simplistic, ready to deploy design that is capable of tackling the COVID-19 testing challenges of today."

After researching pathogen transmission in Southern California skilled nursing facilities, Chase Berman has emphasized design on reducing the contamination inside testing centers, thus limiting the spread of novel coronavirus between healthcare workers and those being tested.

These designs include surfaces that are easy to be cleaned and disinfected. The MPTU contains three easily accessed hand-wash stations. The interior of the MPTU is climate controlled, containing lavatory facilities to eliminate staff trips in and out of the unit.

"We recognize that the means of transport to testing centers will be by motor vehicle or by foot, and the MPTU addresses both of these," adds Chase. "Healthcare workers can obtain swab samples through 2 access points: a walk-up window for swabbing citizens on foot, and an area set up for drive-thru car passengers. Both strategies allow for rapid testing turnover of a wide population, regardless of transportation means. In addition, a 40-foot unit variant has been designed, which has the ability to manage 2 drive-thru lanes simultaneously."

The ultimate goal of human beings is the preservation of life and health to all of those around us. The MPTU carries the same sentiment in a dual-sided approach: to test as many symptomatic patients as quickly as possible, while attempting to reduce the transmission of COVID-19 beyond its current extension.

Alpine Bank Selects CompenSafe by LBA Ware for Efficient, Accurate and Scalable Compensation Plan Management

MACON, Ga. /ScoopCloud/ -- LBA Ware™, a leading provider of incentive compensation management (ICM) and business intelligence software solutions for the mortgage industry, announced that full-service community bank Alpine Bank has implemented CompenSafe™ to automate incentive compensation for its mortgage loan originators and fulfillment staff.

Headquartered in Glenwood Springs, Colorado, Alpine Bank's mortgage division serves the home purchase and refinance needs of borrowers throughout the state's Western Slope and Front Range regions. The bank offers monthly commission opportunities to its 16 mortgage loan originators and awards per-file bonuses to processing, closing and underwriting staff. Although the mortgage division is small, Alpine Bank has a variety of compensation plans that pay out differently depending on the originator's experience and how established they are in the market.

Managing, calculating and communicating incentive compensation back to employees used to be something Mortgage Division President Dave Roberts did manually, but since the beginning of the year, Alpine Bank has been using LBA Ware's CompenSafe to complete those processes more efficiently and with greater accuracy.

"Calculating commissions and bonuses using spreadsheets is time-consuming and, like all manual processes, subject to fat-finger mistakes," Roberts said. "CompenSafe eliminates the opportunity for error by capturing pipeline information directly from our loan origination system. Pay is calculated automatically and available for employee review at the same time each month, like clockwork, no matter what else is on my plate."

"CompenSafe helps lending operations of every size transform incentive compensation from a process that's a drag on resources to one that is pinpoint accurate and effortlessly scalable," said LBA Ware Founder and CEO Lori Brewer. "It's a perfect match for a community bank like Alpine that remains rooted in values like service and transparency even as it continues to modernize and grow."

About Alpine Bank:

Employee-owned and locally operated, Alpine Bank is a full-service community bank that has been a part of Colorado since 1973. With 40 convenient locations from Durango to Denver, including Front Range branches in Denver and Boulder, Alpine Bank serves 140,000 customers with personal, business, wealth management, mortgage and electronic banking services.

Sha Bandzz the Artist

The new age hip hop music artist and entertainment company owner, Sha Bandzz From Perth Amboy, New Jersey was born January 27, 2000 to loving parents. Faced with a great obstacle early in life, he was just 8 when his father was convicted of murder and sentenced to life in prison which is the true bait to his hunger. Bandzz says before the music sports was his outlet but music has helped to cope with life and connect with others who can relate.

After graduating high school Sha Bandzz spent one semester studying business at Utica college, in Utica New York, where he says he spent a lot of self-time reflecting. The following semester he dropped out of college and returned Home to pursue his dreams of becoming a music mogul.

The EP "Watch Me Work" is a statement for all the haters, doubters, naysayers and others who said he couldn't make it as a rapper and think he should have stayed in school. (Hints the title "watch me work," he is telling those doubters to sit back and watch what he can do.) After the smash hit "Bentleys" got national attention and radio play in over 26 different countries, there is no denying Sha Bandzz is a musical prospect.

Bandzz has something to prove: The young versatile artist puts his creativity on full display with "Watch Me Work" the EP. With the recent Covid-19 pandemic affecting millions, Sha Bandzz in a humanitarian effort decided to donate the proceeds from "Watch Me Work" to finding a cure for the coronavirus.

Sha says "The covid-19 Hasn't affected me personally just yet but the virus has the potential to take out the vast majority of our loved ones young and old alike." Consequently, Sha Bandzz Ent. Made the business decision to donate the artist proceeds from the EP to be proactive in assisting in creating an antidote for the coronavirus.

Sha Bandzz has other works out now like his 2019 summer hit "Bodybuilder feat. EEM, & Kannons" and the song that started his career as an artist "in Love WIth The Money" - this track also features EEM. The list goes on and so many more, new features coming soon and plenty more albums to come.

Stress from Fears of Coronavirus Prompts Teeth Grinding – Marina Del Rey based Orthodontist Shares Stress Reducing Tips

MARINA DEL REY, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- Throughout his 30-year career, Dr. Mario Paz is used to hearing reasons why patients grind their teeth at night, but now it's about COVID-19. "Fears of the virus are creating new anxieties causing patients to clench their jaws for sustained period. This alters their bite causing pain," he says.

According to Dr. Paz, "Stress is something we must attempt to manage, or it will manage us. Teeth grinding may lead to jaw pain and what is known as Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction (TMD), which may require braces to correct."

Instead, Dr. Paz encourages people to focus on gratitude as a way of reducing their anxiety. "The first step is to be intentional, acknowledging stress takes a toll on the body and the mind. A powerful antidote is to cultivate an attitude of gratitude," he advises.

According to a Harvard Mental Health Letter dated June 5, 2019, "In Praise of Gratitude," expressing thanks can lead to improved health and greater happiness. The article gives six suggestions for cultivating gratitude, including writing a thank you note and jotting down three to five things you're grateful for each week. "As you write, be specific and think about the sensations you felt when something good happened to you," the article states.

Patients suffering symptoms due to excessive grinding should contact their dental professional after COVID-19 quarantines have been lifted. "Hopefully, we can all better manage stress from this virus in the days ahead," says Dr. Paz.

About Dr. Mario Paz Orthodontics

Since 1990 when Dr. Paz opened his Beverly Hills office he has been as known as a pioneer in lingual braces technology, better known as "invisible" braces. Past president of the American Lingual Orthodontic Association (ALOA), Dr. Paz taught lingual braces at the UCLA Orthodontics School for two years and is a member of the European Society of Lingual Orthodontics, Sociedad Ibero-Americana de Ortodoncia Lingual, the American Association of Orthodontists, American Dental Association, the Western Los Angeles Dental Association and founding Member of the World Society of Lingual Orthodontics. Dr. Paz is now exclusively located in Marina Del Rey.

Innovative Telehealth Company Gives Expectant Mothers and Parents Peace of Mind During COVID-19 Crisis

LOS ANGELES, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- No greater concern exists in the current crisis of COVID-19 than for expectant mothers and their loved ones. The problem is two-fold, says BabyLiveAdvice. Women don't want to risk their health by exposing themselves and their unborn or newborn babies to the virus. And, even if they did try to seek outside support during these trying times, an overwhelmed healthcare system cannot meet the need.

Over the next three months, nearly a million babies will be born in the United States. Reliable information for them will remain scarce as inundated prenatal providers working in healthcare facilities with limited protective gear are overburdened and struggling to respond to patients' most basic queries.

The good news is that a Los Angeles-based, woman-owned social enterprise - BabyLiveAdvice - is ready to provide the most accurate, reliable and helpful information to its anxious members as they are going through life happiest event in fear of the unknown. The company provides expectant and new mothers with lactation support and online educational breastfeeding classes.

"Now more than ever we need to support breastfeeding considering it is one of the few reliable preventative health behaviors in this circumstance," says Genevieve Colvin, IBCLC, who is lead lactation consultant and a board member of BabyLiveAdvice.

BabyLiveAdvice partners with healthcare providers and health systems to support coordinated, comprehensive prenatal and postpartum care anywhere, by filling the educational gap for expectant mothers and parents. The end result is reduced complications and better outcomes for mothers and their babies. The company uses a HIPAA-Secure Telehealth platform, offered online through chats, calls or video face-to-face engagements between the mother/parent and a nurse/provider. Complete virtual support is offered from preconception to early childhood.

In addition to one-on-one consultations, BabyLiveAdvice offers peer and professionally led support groups and classes via the web. Programs are designed to bring people together, recognizing the shared emotional experience of pregnancy, motherhood and parenthood.

Most recently, BabyLiveAdvice partnered with three new groups:
* GravidaMom - https://www.gravidamom.com/ - a world-class video course company that also provides information guides;
* Peer Support Solutions - https://www.peersupportsolutions.com/
* Postpartum Support International - https://www.postpartum.net/.

"We want to provide members with a variety of options for peer support and online education," Sigi Marmorstein, founder and CEO, BabyLiveAdvice, says. "Our goal is to decrease isolation and improve the knowledge, health and wellbeing of our members, not just during this global health crisis, but far into the future."

BabyLiveAdvice's program has been piloted extensively, and to date helped thousands of parents to get one-on-one support in their language by a caring provider rather than through pamphlets, blogs, Google searches or articles.

Its mission to help parents and improve the statistics surrounding pregnancy, births and child rearing is working.

Valligent Technologies Wins HousingWire Tech100 Award for Second Consecutive Year

ROSEVILLE, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- Valligent Technologies (Valligent), the leading residential valuation technology company, today announced that it has been awarded HousingWire's Tech100 award for the second consecutive year.

Now in its eighth year, the HousingWire Tech100 program recognizes the most innovative technology companies in the U.S. housing economy. For 2020, HousingWire recognized Valligent for the VRAR (Virtual Residential Appraisal Report), a 100 percent regulatory compliant full interior inspection appraisal that can be completed in as little as one hour, rather than the typical five to ten days.

The VRAR uses virtual property inspections conducted through a new mobile technology. The technology is so comprehensive that it enables an inspector to complete a comprehensive inspection without being on the property. Valligent has been using the virtual property inspections for the past year and has perfected the proprietary patent-pending technology during that time.

"Many are concerned about the coronavirus pandemic, and borrowers are very uneasy about having a stranger inside their homes," said Jeremy McCarty, CEO of Valligent Technologies. "On the other side of the equation, appraisers are becoming increasingly hesitant to inspect properties. A virtual property inspection eases fears and provides an enhanced borrower experience. Given the circumstances, that's as important, or more, as its speed and efficiency."

The appraisal inspection is the only aspect of the residential loan process that traditionally necessitates person-to-person contact, as the appraiser must enter the borrower's home to complete the property inspection.

With the VRAR, the homeowner simply schedules the inspection time and date through a web calendar and the inspection can take place in as little as one hour later. The VRAR is completed shortly thereafter by a Valligent certified appraiser.

The goal of the Tech100 program is to provide housing professionals with a definitive list of the most innovative and impactful companies that can be leveraged to identify partners and solutions to the problems that mortgage lenders and real estate professionals face every day.

About Valligent Technologies

Valligent Technologies is an award-winning, provider of alternative residential valuation solutions employing patent pending processes and technologies. Over the past year, the company's VRAR has gained significant attention among lenders, the GSEs and the media as the industry's first 100 percent regulatory compliant full interior inspection appraisal that can be completed in as little as one hour, rather than the typical five to ten days. Valligent, which counts among its customers hundreds of banks, credit unions, and financial institutions, was established in 2002 and is based in Roseville, California.

Right Hand Technology Group Becomes First Pittsburgh-based Managed IT and Cybersecurity Service Provider to Earn CompTIA Security Trustmark+

PITTSBURGH, Pa. /ScoopCloud/ -- Right Hand Technology Group Inc, a Managed IT and Cyber Security Service Provider, announced today it has received the CompTIA Security Trustmark+™ from CompTIA, the non-profit association for the world's information technology (IT) industry.

The CompTIA Security Trustmark+ validated that Right Hand Technology Group uses the security processes identified by the IT industry as generally accepted best practices. In addition, Right Hand Technology Group has been evaluated by an independent third-party assessor which assessed it as meeting the criteria established by the CompTIA Security Trustmark+.

Based on the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cybersecurity Framework, the CompTIA Security Trustmark+ is a comprehensive review of the security posture of any IT business, applicable across multiple industries and compliance regulations.

"The CompTIA Security Trustmark+ signifies that Right Hand Technology Group adheres to our industry's highest standards for security practices and business processes in critical components of identification, protection, detection, response, and recovery as related to data security," said Nancy Hammervik, senior vice president, industry relations, CompTIA. "Earning the Security Trustmark+ demonstrates a true commitment to address the challenges of security compliance facing our industry today."

"In a world of increasing threats, organizations are looking to managed service providers (MSPs) to help keep their organizations secure - making the MSP industry a target for hackers," said Josh Wilhelm, President of Right Hand Technology Group.

Wilhelm adds, "With the number of MSPs that have been breached over the past year, we wanted to assure our clients that we take security very seriously and follow best practices put out by NIST. While we have been actively following best practices since our inception, the CompTIA Security Trustmark+ gives the third-party validation that companies can count on when deciding to work with us or any other managed service provider,"

To earn the CompTIA Security Trustmark+ Right Hand Technology Group Inc successfully passed an independent assessment of their security policies, capabilities, practices, and processes against industry best practices in areas such as:
* Security technologies, including firewalls, anti-Virus/ malware/ spyware and intrusion detection
* Vulnerability assessment detection
* Data encryption
* Technical employee knowledge/expertise
* Security clearances and background checks
* Physical and hardware security
* Permissions, passwords and other security requirements.

Growing Local Collaborative Increases Food Deliveries and Resources in NOLA Amid COVID-19 Outbreak

NEW ORLEANS, La. /ScoopCloud/ -- Today, the various organizations that make up the Growing Local Collaborative - Recirculating Farms Coalition, Top Box Foods Louisiana, SPROUT NOLA, New Orleans Food Policy Advisory Committee, and Liberty's Kitchen - in partnership with Market Umbrella and the Crescent City Farmers Market, are ramping up efforts to keep New Orleans residents fed and healthy by organizing food distribution from farms to families and mapping important resources.

Connor DeLoach, Executive Director of Top Box Louisiana said, "It is even more important for people to have access to fresh food right now, as we all try to be healthy. That's why we are working with our Growing Local Collaborative partners and Crescent City Farmers Market to bring fresh local food from Louisiana farms right to people's homes."

Amid the COVID-19 outbreak, farmers markets closed to reduce potential for social contact, but people still want fresh local food. Crescent City Farmers Market and SPROUT NOLA worked together to get their growers online - posting profiles about farmers on websites and selling products that normally would be at the markets through a box delivery program with Top Box Foods Louisiana. All the staging and packing is happening at Liberty's Kitchen, which is currently suspending its other programs.

"Supporting our farmers is critical, so they are able to continue working and providing fresh food for us all," said Margee Green, Executive Director of SPROUT NOLA and organizer of the Monday ReFresh Farmers Market. "We are making sure fresh food doesn't go to waste, and it gets to people who want it, through RFC's Growing Local box and the new Crescent City Farmers Market box."

The Recirculating Farms Coalition runs Growing Local NOLA farms. Top Box has been delivering Local Garden Boxes for RFC for years, in neighborhoods with less access to fresh food, like Central City. The Growing Local boxes offers fruit, vegetables, herbs, eggs and a fun "lagniappe" item for smaller families for $15. The new Crescent City Farmers Market Box is $40 and offers bigger portions. This box is comprised of goods from CCFM vendors and qualifies for their Market Match program. Both boxes accept SNAP.

"Emergencies, like this pandemic, illustrate why having a stable local food system is critical," said Marianne Cufone, Executive Director for Recirculating Farms Coalition. "We are able to mobilize partners to offer fresh local food for a range of budgets and needs. We started our box to provide food in neighborhoods with low or no access to fresh, healthy options. Now, working with the CCFM farmers, we are expanding what we can offer - we doubled the number of boxes available this week!"

In addition to the boxes, the Collaborative is collecting information about other food resources in the city; NOLA FPAC is taking the lead. Their website lists assorted programs and has a map where children who usually have meals in schools can get grab and go food.

Elisa Munoz, Executive Director of NOLA FPAC said, "Food is a key part of who we are in New Orleans, and knowing where to access food can help us feel healthier and safer, both of which we need now. We want to offer a wide range of resources for our community."

The American Heart Association of Greater New Orleans and The Humana Foundation are supporting these programs with grants to scale up operations and pay farmers for food.
