Hanover, MA, Sep 5, 2020 -- Lapels Dry Cleaning, an innovative, environmentally friendly dry cleaning company headquartered in Hanover, Massachusetts, recently retained the services of ClickTecs. Based in Missisauga, Ontario in Canada, ClickTecs is a Digital Marketing agency with a specialty in developing digital campaigns for clients ranging from small start-up franchises to large multi-national brands.

“ClickTecs has a great reputation in the franchise industry for helping franchisors develop messaging that reaches desired prospects,” said Kevin Dubois, CEO of Lapels Dry Cleaning. “Through working with Jam and the ClickTecs team, we have been able to clearly define our prospects, which will dramatically increase the effectiveness of the Facebook and LinkedIn campaigns we’ll be running.”

ClickTecs first worked with Lapels on its redesign of its franchise website, https://lapelsfranchise.com/. With knowledge gained from that experience, ClickTecs embarked on the Facebook and Linkedin campaigns last month. Those campaigns will run through the remainder of summer and into the fall.

“Lapels had a pretty good idea of who their prospects are. Through our process, we were able to help them further clarify their ideal prospect. This analysis took into consideration the current economic climate. For example, corporate executives who see the current economy and may want to take a stab at franchising rather than the uncertainty that’s coming as the country pulls out of the pandemic,” said Jam Hashmi, owner of ClickTecs. “With this type of refinement of the ideal prospect, we can create a campaign that resonates with very solid leads to help continue the growth of the Lapels Dry Cleaning brand.”

Campbell, CA, 05 September 2020 -- A roof is a huge investment, and most homeowners want to make that investment last. But that makes it easy to fall into the trap of continually repairing your roof long after its natural lifespan.

To make things worse, there are plenty of roofers who are happy to sell you a new roof that you don’t really need yet.

So how is a homeowner supposed to decide when to replace their roof?

The truth is that it’s a balancing act between several competing factors. How long will you live in that home? How many layers have been added to your roof? Is there water damage involved?

Campbell Roofing, Inc. have published an infographic that outlines the advantages and disadvantages of replacing vs. repairing your roof.

The infographic outlines important points on the topic and highlights crucial considerations to be aware of.

About Campbell Roofing, Inc.: Campbell Roofing is a full service roofing contractor serving residential and commercial clients throughout Silicon Valley. Our team offers 5 year warranties on all new installations, free estimates on all work, and so much more.

ADELAIDE BOOKS is proud to offer the latest work by Joseph A. Pasquale Kindred Spirits: Horse Racing Name Poems hitting stores everywhere on August 10th, 2020.

This poetry collection, Kindred Spirits: Horse Racing Name Poems was inspired by horse racing names at current tracks across America. In total, each horse name originated from about twenty-five race tracks across the United States. Throughout the process, Joseph Pasquale worked with a poetic postulation to the following questions: What meaning can we associate to every word we encounter? How can we choose to interpret that meaning and then associate it again to an even greater meaning we choose to construct? This collection was such an experiment in poetry. As tempting as it was to add or delete words, the author refrained in order to maintain the material’s integrity. The book is separated into three sections to arc the reader’s journey through wisdom, nature, and hope.

Available on Amazon

The catalog is packed with African tribal sculptures and masks from the late 1800s through the mid-20th century, rare examples of Bangwa, Dogon, Baule, Ibibio, Yoruba, Bakongo and Senufo art.

Franklin, MA, USA, September 6, 2020 -- 500 Gallery will make a brief departure from its core business of fine art originals and attributions with the first in a series of all-tribal art auctions, online-only, on Wednesday, September 30th, at 5:30 pm Eastern time. The sale features African tribal sculptures and masks from the late 1800s through the mid-20th century. People can register and bid now, at www.500Gallery.com.

The catalog – a taut 60 lots – is packed with rare examples of Bangwa, Dogon, Baule, Ibibio, Yoruba, Bakongo and Senufo art, gathered over the past few decades by a collector in Massachusetts.

“This auction has an abbreviated, ‘teaser’ selection from a deep collection of African tribal art that will be coming to market over the next few years,” said Bruce Wood of 500 Gallery, adding, “Cataloging it has become a fascinating endeavor and we're looking forward to presenting many surprisingly rare masterworks.” Watch the 500 Gallery website for more details as they emerge.

A prime candidate for top lot of the Sept. 30 sale is the early 20th century house post from the Yoruba People of Nigeria (est. $50,000-$150,000). The house post, 73 inches tall and made from carved wood enhanced with pigments, is designed to stand at an entryway, and shows the status of the occupants within. The main figure is a queen, seated on an elaborately decorated stool.

A marital group (or Nomos) from the Dogon People of Mali, estimated to have been made circa late 19th century, is expected to bring $30,000-$60,000. The seated group of eight hermaphroditic figures, with alternating male and female attributes, is dense-wood carved with raised arms and upward stretched fingers, a gesture of praying for special gifts (or, specifically, marital success).

An early 20th century Badu plank mask with a female form from the Nafana People of the Ivory Coast carries a pre-sale estimate of $20,000-$60,000. The 47 ¾ inch by 16 ¼ inch carved wood mask is decorated with a bold abstract design and colored with white kaolin clay and other pigments. The edges are worn smooth and the overall patina gives the mask a warm appearance.

An elaborately decorated ritual vessel from the Dogon People of Mali, made in the early-to-mid 20th century, should change hands for $25,000-$50,000. The carved wood hollowed ovoid vessel with a convex lid is warmly toned and finely patinated, and shows seated Nomo figures (evoking Dogon ancestors) and horses (expressing status and prestige and utilized in harvest celebrations).

A carved wood seated male figure from the Bamileke/Bangwa People of Cameroon, 36 inches tall, is estimated to command $25,000-$50,000. The circa 1900 memorial portrait figure of an important man is shown seated on a single-leg stool decorated with geometric designs. Such Bangwa sculptures are usually referred to as Leffem, after the society tasked with their keeping.

Also having an estimate of $25,000-$50,000 is a rare and unusual anthropomorphic bird mask from the Dan People of Liberia, 16 inches tall by 9 inches wide, on a 20 ½ inch stand. The 19th or 20th century carved wood mask with elaborately braided fiber hair exhibits a blend of human and bird features. It has a human-like face, but also a curved beak and hummingbird-like tongue.

An equestrian sculpture from the Dogon People of Mali, showing a horse with two riders (one male and one female), carved from hardwood in the 19th century, should gallop off for $20,000-$50,000. The sculpture has the patina of libations, possibly indicating the owners used it to attain social distinction. The Dogon often interpret equestrian statues as a display of wealth and power.

A carved wood face mask from the Grebo People of Liberia, combining fanciful elements of human and multiple animal traits, 20 inches tall and 19 inches wide, circa mid-20th century, has an estimate of $8,000-$16,000. The mask, conveying great determination and energy, is crested with wild animal horns and features a beard of braided fiber cords. It rests on a custom stand.

A large, early 20th century Nkisi N’Kondi (or power figure) from the Bakongo People of the Democratic Republic of Congo is estimated to reach $6,500-$15,000. The figure is made of carved wood, pigments, fabric, glass, nails and natural elements. A Nkisi N’Kondi is a magical charm, carved in the likeness of a human, and meant to highlight its function in human affairs.

A bird mask with teeth from the Dan People of Liberia, carved out of wood in the form of the abstracted face of a bird, whose open beak is lined with teeth, having an overall dark stained patina, has an estimate of $5,000-$12,000. The periphery of the late 19th/early 20th century mask is incised with holes for costume attachment. It measures 13 inches tall by 6 ¼ inches wide.

All 60 lots can be viewed in the 500 Gallery showroom, at 1243 Pond Street in Franklin, Mass., by appointment only on Tuesdays and Saturdays. To make an appointment, call 508-834-8190. For more info, visit www.500Gallery.com.
