Jerry Grisaffi, President, and CEO of Right on Brands, stated, “We are excited to be entering into this relationship and partnership with Neuro Science Research Centers. Psilocybin research is still in its infancy, but with the level of production already accomplished and continued acceptance within the medical community using psilocybin, we believe this is an opportunity for us to be on the ground level, yet with our locations and distribution network we will be able to attain early success within a reasonable timeframe.” Russel Young has been named President of the new entity and majority shareholder Mike Brown has been name Secretary and Director. “This is a great opportunity, and I too am excited about our relationship with Right on Brands Inc.” states Russel.

Alana and Ramon Alvarez Grow Minuteman Press Franchise in Colorado Springs

Minuteman Press International Inc

Alana and Ramon Alvarez have owned their Minuteman Press franchise in Colorado Springs since August of 2019. Minuteman Press in Colorado Springs has been operating for 15 years since 2008 and is located at 6870 N. Academy Blvd., Colorado Springs, CO, 80918. After taking over the business nearly 4 years ago, Alana and Ramon have consistently grown their business and increased sales “by nearly 400% since we started,” according to Ramon. Journey to Minuteman Press Alana and Ramon “met at work 31 years ago” and the rest is history, according to Ramon. He shares, “Alana is my forever partner. After leaving the company, we lived throughout the West Coast and South America throughout our time together. I continued to work in the corporate world and Alana managed our household and led the raising of our children.” In 2019, it was time for a change. Ramon says, “Fast forward to August 5, 2019. That is when we began our small business journey, owning our Minuteman Press center in Colorado Springs. Minuteman Press International RVP Jack Panzer was instrumental in helping us acquire this existing location, which has been doing business in Colorado Springs since 2008. Jack helped us throughout the purchasing and on-boarding process, just as he does now in supporting us to grow along with excellent field support talent like Todd Golberg at the time (who is now RVP in New England), and now Sky Hittle.” Operating the Business & Ongoing Support Nearly 4 years after purchasing the business, Ramon remains excited about working with Alana, sharing: “Today, Alana and I continue commuting to our business together, excited to spend quality time with each other while creating outstanding experiences for our clients, just as we did 31 years ago when we first met. We are fortunate to be serving many clients in the Pikes Peak Region, having grown our sales by nearly 400% since we started.” Specifically, Ramon says, “Our small business has evolved into a one-stop shop for our clients, providing design, print, promotional items, direct mail, and more! We are now providing vehicle and window graphics, along with building sign replacements. We won’t stop there, ensuring we continue to listen to our clients, and treating each of them like a VIP. In spite of the digital transformation that marketing has experienced, print is everywhere, and continues to be leveraged by businesses launching or striving for growth. Print simply looks different today, with a critical role in creating an omnichannel experience for clients, like adding QR codes to drive the client’s audience to a website, scheduling form, or otherwise.” As he reflects on what it’s been like to transition from the corporate world to small business owner, Ramon says, “Having led large teams with large budgets in the Americas, I felt that being a small business owner would be relatively easy. It’s actually the hardest role I’ve ever had, yet it’s the most rewarding by far.” Ramon explains how the support he’s received as a Minuteman Press franchise owner has helped him along the way: “Minuteman Press has been supporting us in many ways, setting us up for success. In my career, I was previously an operations executive and so I wanted a proven brand, a proven system, and a proven structure to allow us to succeed as small business owners. Minuteman Press International has given us all of that.” He continues, “The Minuteman Press FLEX software, which allows us to connect with our clients for quoting, invoicing, work orders, marketing, and more, has been invaluable. The support team is also outstanding in urgently reacting to our needs, as they have extensive experience and an aptitude to serve.” Marketing & Being Active in the Community When it comes to marketing the business, Ramon shares, “No silver bullet exists in marketing our small business, and Minuteman Press has supported owners successfully who may not be experts in the industry. We focus on providing outstanding experiences for our clients through our high-performing team, delivering quality, speed, and reliability. Every customer is a VIP. We leverage direct mail, use digital marketing, networking, and other marketing opportunities, just like businesses in all industries do, focusing heavily on our target audiences and key clients.” Being active in the community is also key to Alana and Ramon’s local outreach efforts. Ramon says, “We also engage with our community, advocating for local business growth through various volunteer efforts. I serve as the current Chair of the Board of Directors for the Colorado Springs Chamber and EDC, on the Board of Directors for the Southern Colorado Better Business Bureau, on the Board of Directors of the Colorado Springs Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, Consult for the Pikes Peak Region Small Business Development Center, and help drive economic development in our region for our local businesses any way I can.” Ramon concludes, “By helping our community of businesses prosper, opportunities for prosperity are available for all.” Minuteman Press in Colorado Springs is located at 6870 N. Academy Blvd., Colorado Springs, CO, 80918.

DataWeave Releases 2023 eCommerce Petcare Report: Pet Food Stock Availability Rallies, Along With Growth

DataWeave

Stock Availability shot up from 52% in 2021 to 76% in 2022 Discounting rose sharply in 2022 from 2021 levels Top 3 pet food brands account for half of all share of eCommerce search results Some signs of a swing from shortage to inventory overstock DataWeave, a leading provider of Competitive Intelligence and Digital Shelf Analytics for consumer brands and retailers globally, released its 2023 Petcare eCommerce Report: how brands can leverage digital shelf analytics to grow their sales and market share profitability. The report provides a data-rich overview of the online petcare market, with stock availability, discounting, and online search trends across retailers and brands. DataWeave analyzes price changes and assortment composition by brand and retailer in light of market dynamics and fluctuating macroeconomic environments. Analyzing thousands of leading brand petcare SKUs, the report offers insights into the current state of the online pet food market as global supply chain pressures have eased. DataWeave’s 2023 Petcare eCommerce Report indicates dramatic year-over-year shifts in product availability, a signal that Covid-driven supply chain challenges not only lifted but swung into reverse across brands at about the same time. “Our analysis on these aspects of nationwide online petcare availability provides insight into how quickly the supply chain has bounced back from the pandemic crisis. This has amounted to a significant 24 percentage point rise in availability, and, it could be said, in some cases brands being overstocked,” said Karthik Bettadapura, CEO of DataWeave. “Our report on the eCommerce petcare sector makes the connection between these greatly improved stock levels, discounting, and share of search.” The 2023 PetCare eCommerce Report analyzes prices across all products in the petcare category, finding that discounting strategies across brands are quite divergent, with some of the top brands operating within a limited range of discounting while other brands priced their products at the extreme ends of the spectrum. The report also looks into differences between dog and cat food availability, with some surprising findings indicating clear consumer preferences. Almost half the share of products in the top 10 search results for relevant non-branded search keywords in 2022 were held by the top three brands, Hill’s Pet, Mars and Nestlé, the report found. Data analysis also revealed that several new, small-scale brands recently entering the market are gaining more share, including Chicken Soup for the Soul, Justfoodfordogs, Stella & Chewy’s, Tiki, Victor, and Open Farm. “As one of the largest categories in CPG eCommerce, petcare brands increasingly need to build a holistic approach to winning online,” said Krish Thyagarajan, President and COO of DataWeave. “With the tight consumer market we’re experiencing, this includes keeping an eye on their online presence and benchmarking their performance against competitors every single day. We see our 2023 Petcare eCommerce Report as a view into the highly dynamic nature of the online petcare market as inflation continues to dominate the consumer mindset, while informing brands and retailers in the industry on best practices.” Report Methodology To come to its findings, DataWeave tracked the data of 5,000+ SKUs to analyze stock availability and discounts, and 100,000+ SKUs to analyze the share of search for leading petcare brands in the U.S. The timeline of the analysis spans October to December of 2021 and all of 2022 to capture the state of the market during the more dynamic holiday seasons. DataWeave is an SaaS-based digital commerce analytics platform that provides competitive intelligence to retailers and digital shelf analytics to consumer brands globally. With DataWeave, retailers can make smarter pricing and merchandising decisions while consumer brands can optimize their digital shelf for KPIs like share of search, content quality, price competitiveness, and stock availability. DataWeave’s AI-powered proprietary technology aggregates and delivers actionable eCommerce insights across 500+ billion data points globally, 400,000 brands, 1,500+ websites, 20+ verticals, and 25+ languages.

A majority (59%) of respondents are also open to dating outside of their “type.” In fact, based on Bumble’s 2023 Dating Trends survey, which was conducted in October 2022 with a sample of 14,300 Bumble members around the world, an overwhelming majority of global respondents (63%) are doing away with physical requirements when dating. If this trend resonates with you, try Bumble’s newest product feature, “ Speed Dating,” which brings retro speed dating to the online dating experience, allowing Bumble’s community to prioritize personality over physical appearance. Available every Thursday between 7-8 pm local time in the app, speed dating is a fun, pressure-free way to briefly chat within a timed conversation without sharing any photos. After three minutes, each person is asked if they would like to continue the conversation. If both people choose to match, their chat will live in their Date Mode queue, and their profile will then be available to view following the event.

Liteboxer Announces Transformative Rebrand to Litesport

Litesport

Litesport, formerly known as Liteboxer, the leading trainer-led VR fitness company, announces its rebrand to reflect the brand’s evolution and continued expansion into workout modes beyond boxing. The new visual identity and name demonstrates the company's growth and marks a significant milestone, as the brand releases a monumental update to their popular VR-fitness app, including Strength Training. With the addition of the strength modality, Litesport creates an accessible, inviting and convenient environment for any and all fitness enthusiasts by bringing real trainers to your home. Litesport continues to disrupt the VR fitness industry with their new Strength Training mode which uses cutting-edge VR features, such as passthrough, hand-tracking, and mixed-reality to enable trainers to appear in the user's own space and provide effective dumbbell-based workouts. This addition to the app provides a first-of-its-kind experience with tried-and-true exercises, ensuring correct form while lifting weights as well as showcases Litesport's commitment to helping at-home fitness enthusiasts build strength, while increasing the app's appeal to a wider audience. The Liteboxer VR fitness app launched just over one year ago and now with the rebrand it includes Boxing, Total Body, and Strength workouts. The app has over 940,000 installs to date, and CEO and Founder, Jeff Morin, is delighted with the progress. Reflecting on the app's evolution since the original release in March 2022, Morin said, "The app has changed so much in the past 12 months. We added full body workouts with the launch of Total Body 6 months ago, and it became obvious that this made-for-VR, trainer-led experience is really something special. People love it, and it's a huge differentiator for us." Litesport's unique offering provides a workout experience that is personalized, interactive and is led by world class trainers. Members enjoy the one-on-one coaching experience, which they might not have access to otherwise due to time, cost, or location. Morin explains, "We are unique in the space where the trainer is in front of you, showing what you do for the entire workout. Not just an intro, not a voiceover, but right in front of you - showing you good form, sweating, and doing the work. Now take that, add the interactivity and the feedback made possible by working out in the headset, and we have something pretty addictive. That's what we're all about." The new Strength Training mode differs from the other workouts in the app, as it does not provide a 'score,' 'leaderboard,' or 'match' results. Instead, trainers provide guidance throughout the workout, targeting 16 key muscles, which are showcased on the interactive muscle map. Members have the ability to filter content by specific muscle groups to change the focus of each workout to reach their goals. The mode is intended to motivate members to compete with themselves, improving their muscle map and getting stronger with each workout. Morin concludes, "Building strength is essential, and we want to make it accessible to everyone. With Strength Training, we hope to give people who may have never sought out a strength workout - a starting point. They can find a workout to help strengthen their lower back so they might more easily pick up their toddler, whatever it might be. Our muscle map makes it simple to pick a target area, and the tracking and accountability will, we hope, make them come back to it and feel the result, but as a side effect of having fun in the app and doing something they enjoy." Litesport's app is available to download in the Oculus Store for $18.99/month, with a 7-day free trial. There is also an option to sign up for a free membership, which provides limited access to content. The app is compatible with Meta Quest, Quest 2, and Quest Pro headsets, providing immersive and fun workouts in the comfort of your own home. To learn more about Litesport, please visit www.litesport.com and @ LitesportVR on TikTok. About Litesport Litesport, formally Liteboxer, combines hit music, game dynamics, and expert training to create the world's most immersive workouts. By combining innovative boxing, full body, and strength training workouts, Litesport creates the ultimate virtual reality fitness experience placing real, certified trainers in the convenience of your own home. Litesport is designed to make your at-home workouts accessible and teach form accuracy while also keeping your goals at the forefront.
