Study by Thryv, Inc. and America’s SBDC Shows that 87% of Small Businesses Believe the Government Needs to Provide More Stimulus

DALLAS, Jan. 14, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — In an effort to gauge the impact of COVID-19 among small businesses, Thryv, Inc. (NASDAQ: THRY) and America’s Small Business Development Center (SBDC) conducted a study with participants from over 1,499 small to medium sized businesses (SMBs) across more than 100 industries. The study revealed that most SMBs are still struggling and require stimulus support as the Coronavirus pandemic continues.

<div class="PRN_ImbeddedAssetReference"…

The new study launched on November 16, 2020, details how SMBs are still being affected by the pandemic. Key insights and statistics show which industries were affected the most, how many businesses had to make adjustments, and the consensus on making those adjustments permanent after the pandemic. The data revealed that 87% of SMBs need additional stimulus for 2021.

In late December 2020, Congress passed a second stimulus bill which includes renewed funds for Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans to help the country’s smallest businesses weather the hardships brought on by the pandemic.

«The new data shows that two-thirds of SMBs believe their business won’t completely recover one year from now,» said Gordon Henry, Chief Strategy Officer at Thryv. «These findings are concerning, but as small business supporters and advocates, we hope to change that outlook by raising awareness for the small business sector and providing resources to help business owners navigate the situation in 2021.»

Thryv — a SaaS and marketing solutions company with over 350,000 small business clients nationwide — and America’s SBDC conducted a previous study among small businesses from March 20 to July 2, 2020, where 4,244 small businesses participated. That study found that 82% of small businesses were «extremely concerned» about the current business environment due to the COVID-19 outbreak.

According to the recent data, now 45% of SMBs fear they will need to close their business, lay off employees or close locations if restrictions continue without additional government aid into 2021.

In an effort to advocate for small businesses, Thryv and America’s SBDC compiled key data points from the original study into a letter addressed to Congress in July 2020 pushing for support. The study showed small businesses that received their first stimulus loan started to change for the better quickly. Further results showed that three-fourths of small businesses that received the loan believe more stimulus was needed for their business to survive.

These studies by Thryv, Inc., and America’s SBDC will continue as new surveys go out each week to collect more data in 2021. The full results of the study can be found on Thryv’s website, here.

BMW Helps EV Drivers Plug into EVgo Charging Network for Fast, Reliable and 100% Renewable Charging

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 14, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — EVgo, the nation’s largest fast-charging network for electric vehicles (EVs), today announced the launch of BMW Charging Powered by EVgo, a program to bring current and future BMW drivers onto the EVgo network. BMW EV drivers will be able to access public charging through one simple interface, and BMW will provide a $100 EVgo charging credit for new owners/lessees of their all-electric/battery electric vehicle (BEV) models….

Powered by 100% renewable energy, BMW BEV drivers will enjoy a high performance and zero emission driving experience, as well as the convenience of charging at more than 800 fast charging sites at retail and grocery stores, shopping malls, entertainment centers and other sites ideal for quick, 20-30 minute errands. Plus, for plug-in-hybrid vehicle (PHEV) and BEV drivers who will be parked for a few hours, EVgo and expanded partner networks will provide access to more than 35,000 L2 chargers, expanding the variety of charging options.

BMW Charging Powered by EVgo will utilize the EVgo platform to provide BMW BEV and PHEV drivers with a streamlined charging experience at EVgo and partner charging network stations via an easy-to-use mobile app, which will enable BMW drivers to locate chargers, see the real-time status of chargers, initiate charging sessions, and contact the EVgo customer service team.

«EVgo and BMW share a commitment to a first-class customer experience, and that’s why we are thrilled to be working together again,» said EVgo Chief Commercial Officer Jonathan Levy. «As BMW brings even more new EV models to the market, EVgo is making it even easier for those drivers to experience the reliable and convenient—and ever-expanding—network of EVgo chargers.

With more than 38,000 EVgo and partner chargers across all 50 states accessible through the EVgo platform, BMW drivers transitioning from gas to electric vehicles will rest assured knowing there’s a network available to meet their charging needs away from home. To get them started, a $100 EVgo charging credit will be offered with the purchase or lease of a qualifying, new, fully electric BMW model, including the i3, the 2022 iX and the 2022 i4.

«As an increasing number of BMW drivers switch to EVs, we’re excited to offer an easy-to-use, all-in-one tool to find charging stations along their driving routes and manage the charging experience from start to finish,» said BMW EV Services Manager Reem Eloubaidy. «BMW has longed valued EVgo’s exceptional reliability and quality customer service, and we’re confident our customers will be in good hands as they charge on-the-go.»

This new partnership with BMW builds on years of previous collaboration with EVgo in the ChargeNow DC Fast program as well as EVgo’s long history of working with other leaders in transportation electrification to accelerate EV adoption and enhance the EV driver experience.

EVgo is the nation’s largest public fast charging network for electric vehicles, and the first to be powered by 100% renewable energy. With more than 800 fast charging locations in more than 600 cities across 34 states, EVgo owns and operates the most public fast charging locations in the U.S. and serves more than 200,000 customers. Founded in 2010, EVgo leads the way on transportation electrification, partnering with automakers; fleet and rideshare operators; retail hosts such as hotels, shopping centers, gas stations and parking lot operators; and other stakeholders to deploy advanced charging technology to expand network availability and make it easier for all Americans to enjoy the benefits of driving an EV. As a charging technology first mover, EVgo works closely with business and government leaders to accelerate the ubiquitous adoption of EVs by providing a reliable and convenient charging experience close to where drivers live, work and play, whether for a daily commute or a commercial fleet. EVgo’s parent company is LS Power, a New York-headquartered development, investment and operating company focused on leading edge solutions for the North American power and energy infrastructure sector.

The Future of Car Buying in New Virtual-First World: Cars.com Reveals 5 Dominating Forces Driving Auto in 2021

CHICAGO, Jan. 14, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Cars.com (NYSE: CARS), a leading digital automotive marketplace and solutions provider, today revealed the <a target="_blank"…

CHICAGO, Jan. 14, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Cars.com (NYSE: CARS), a leading digital automotive marketplace and solutions provider, today revealed the top five trends advancing the auto space in 2021 and beyond. The COVID-19 pandemic forever altered car buying and selling, and changes will persist this year as Americans continue to spend more time at home and online, place a premium on the freedom car ownership provides, and keep affordability and electric vehicles top of mind.

«In the new virtual-first environment, digital platforms have significantly increased in importance for small businesses across the country, dealerships included, as the need persists to virtually connect with at-home shoppers,» said Alex Vetter, Cars.com Inc. CEO. «The new year will bring fast and persistent adaptation in our industry as consumers continue to rely on cars as an extension of their homes, and look for frictionless digital experiences from their local dealerships. America’s car dealers are well positioned to meet these expectations head-on as technology takes center stage, and we welcome this new era of digital car buying and selling.»

Cars.com predicts the following trends will have the most long-term impact on car shopping in 2021:

New wave of car buyers emerge: With the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention stating that cars are the safest transportation option during the pandemic, nearly 50% of people surveyed by Cars.com say they continue to rely less on mass transit and ride-sharing services.¹This has placed a premium on the freedom and safety car ownership provides, resulting in a new wave of first-time car buyers. Of Americans who previously did not own a car, nearly 20% are considering purchasing one.² Even as consumers return to life outside the house, the primary mode of transport will continue to be the car.
The driveway becomes the dealer lot: In 2021, at-home delivery of vehicles and trading in vehicles from the driveway will become more mainstream. Last year, 57% of car buyers conducted the bulk of their vehicle purchases online, and several opted for contactless home delivery from their local dealership^.1 Since April 2020, more than 10 million vehicles on Cars.com — approximately 30% of total inventory listed on the site — have been available for home delivery from dealers across the country. Furthermore, 50% of Cars.com dealer customers are offering home delivery services.³
Virtual selling streamlines car buying: As dealership adoption of digital tools and technology increases, car shoppers can expect more of the purchase process to take place on virtual selling platforms such as chat, video and dealer websites. Stay-at-home consumers are driving advancement in these platforms and shifting them from merely communications tools to selling tools. As it stands, more than 70% of consumers want to conduct at least some parts of the purchase online.⁴
Affordability is at the forefront for consumers: Car shoppers will continue to keep affordability top of mind this year. Approximately 45% of new-car shoppers are interested in vehicles over $30,000, while nearly 40% of used car buyers are interested in cars under $10,000.⁴ Although low interest rates and favorable credit conditions are helping keep monthly payments down for buyers, lean vehicle inventory conditions have resulted in unusually high new- and used-car prices. As a result, shoppers are prioritizing more comfortably priced vehicles.
Advancement in EVs with federal support and evolved technology. Electric vehicles could have a big year in 2021 as the incoming administration supports the EV market with consumer incentives, infrastructure plans and federal fleet purchases. With tech companies such as Apple rumored to enter the market, and automakers like Hyundai, Ford and GM announcing plans to significantly invest and expand their EV platforms, it’s clear the race for EV domination is on.

«Despite the positive momentum expected in the EV category this year, hybrids and EV searches made up less than 1% of total site searches³ on Cars.com in 2020, signaling a long road ahead until mainstream adoption,» added Vetter.

Angel Osiris Milian’s new book La Despedida por un Vencido, a riveting memoir that exposes the American injustice in the judicial system

DELTONA, Fla., Jan. 14, 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The book La Despedida por un Vencido was created by Angel Osiris Milian. Angel is an author who hails from Morón, Cuba. At the request of his family and friends, he left Cuba and arrived in the United States of America from the Guantánamo Bay Naval Base.

<a…

Angel Osiris Milian said this about his book: «I believe in American justice. I am fully aware of the value represented by its independence from other powers. This book is not a challenge to its judicial system but the human condition. Man continues to be the same selfish being from the beginning who likes to run over the weakest and bow down to the strong. Those who think that laws can change human nature are wrong. How a trial and its components are structured is of no use when the heart of its executors is perverse. This and no other is the reason why this testimony is given. This is the real experience of an unethical jury, a judge, a prosecutor, and a public defender obsessed with punishing a poor man to please the excesses of a police inspector who lies. They know it well, but they fear going against him.

But the case does not end here. The policeman who arrests me does not attend the trial either. My accuser turns out to be a famous inspector that I do not remember having seen before and he fabricates a laughable story due to its degree of irrationality and contradictions. His testimony would not have withstood a slight investigation. The prosecution, in complicity with the judge and my public defender, dedicated themselves to hiding the evidence required for the case.

Hopefully this case leads to the sincere reflection of those who, having the opportunity to make a fair trial, preferred to stain the justice of this great nation with their conduct.»

Published by Page Publishing, Angel Osiris Milian’s new book La Despedida por un Vencido presents a no-holds-barred account of the author’s harrowing experiences with the corrupt justice system in America that greatly impacted his life as well as others who share a similar journey with him.

Consumers who wish to be aware of the prevailing crimes against humanity in America can purchase La Despedida por un Vencido in any bookstore or online at Apple iTunes, Amazon.com, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.

«We believe that aligning with KBR will make it possible to meet the strong global demand for a superior plastic recycling process,» said Dr. Steve Mahon, CEO, Mura Technology. «Cat-HTR offers an innovative advanced recycling solution to one of the largest global pollution issues we face today, and we look forward to the commercial roll-out of our game-changing technology with KBR.»

Una Vida En Las Manos De Dios, es una obra escrita por la mano de la autora Lydia Hernández, una escritora y profesora nacida en Puerto Rico, proveniente de un hogar humilde con bases en el cristianismo y dado por entero a Dios. Durante toda su vida ha tenido experiencias que la han hecho crecer como persona, y quiso realizar este libro para que sirva como una herramienta alentadora a aquellos que, como ella, pasan o pasaron momentos difíciles, pero que, a pesar de todo, aprenden a valorar la vida, las personas y todo lo que está alrededor.

DELTONA, Fla., 14 de enero de 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — El reciente lanzamiento del libro La Despedida Por Un Vencido por Ángel Osiris Milian de la editorial Page Publishing, nos abre un mundo desconocido para muchos, un abismo lleno de corrupción y mentiras, enredos y crueldad en el sistema judicial de EE.UU. una historia de la vida real.

<img id="prnejpgdeffleft" title=" " border="0" alt=" " align="middle"…

Ángel Osiris Milian, nació en el mes agosto a finales de la década de los cincuenta en la ciudad de Morón entonces provincia de Camagüey, de niño comienza a escribir poesía y asistir al taller literario de su pueblo, algún tiempo después entra en contradicciones al no adaptarse a la poesía de moda y deja de asistir a estos encuentros. Transcurrieron alrededor de veinte años para que el poeta Reinaldo Soto le convenciera de volver al taller literario de la ciudad de Ciego Ávila, ya para esa fecha había desaparecido el molde coloquial de los años sesenta; la poesía se concebía de un modo diferente, empieza a participar activamente y se le premia en algunos concursos intranscendentales.

La Despedida Por Un Vencido, una historia de la vida de nuestro autor; un viernes, alrededor de las once de la mañana después de haber concluido la labor y recibido la paga Ángel se llega hasta la tienda cercana a comprar un paquete de cervezas. Al venir de regreso observa por el espejo retrovisor que es perseguido por un carro patrullero, después de detenerlo y revisarlo, lo esposa y golpea por la espalda. Este hecho fue presenciado por decenas de personas en público.

En el instante que este oficial de la Policía lo registraba aparece en dirección opuesta un carro blanco civil con dos tripulantes sin uniformes oficiales, los mismos registran el carro de Ángel, en tres ocasiones por espacio cercano a la hora, curiosamente el tercer registro el cual no le permiten observar, afirman haber encontrado una dosis de cocaína en una de las gavetas del carro.

Este hecho sirve de base a todo un largo proceso de irregularidades, y corrupción en el sistema judicial de EE.UU.

Publicada por Page Publishing, el intrigante libro de Ángel Osiris Milian, La Despedida Por Un Vencido nos entrega su pasado a corazón abierto, la crueldad sufrida y la injusticia padecida por el autor a manos de un sistema judicial roto para él.
