The concept of selling your old goods online is not new but bringing back the human touch behind it is the challenge that the founders of the Nelinelo App have accepted a couple months ago.

I think Ebay and most of the online platforms are hard to trust nowadays because we can’t put a face behind the seller and we all know that the pictures they use are deceptive at times.
Apps like Nelinelo respond to the customer’s need to interact with the seller while making sure the money is invested on a quality product.
We had the pleasure to meet with Kévin Pérard & Aurélie Saîz and understand why they will most likely make a huge impact in the app world with their idea!
The Origins Of The Nelinelo App
Kévin initially had the idea 6 years ago but everything really started to fall into place in the last 3-4 months. He presented his idea and made demos to almost 150 potential users until he met Aurélie Saîz.
The two young entrepreneurs are like a double headed dragon. Aurélie takes care of the marketing and Kévin handles the technical part. From that partnership and natural chemistry between the two; the adventure of Ninelo took off.
Indeed, Kévin & Aurélie decided that they would put their focus and energy together to offer a solution to a problem. Since they were both coming from France as immigrants in Montreal, they had noticed how hard it was to have a safe access to second hand goods especially if you don’t know anybody in the city.
Sometimes you can set up a meeting with a seller only to find out that he or she is not trustworthy. Even worst. sometimes you go far away from your place only to find out that the product is in poor condition.
Keeping those issues in mind, Kévin initially started the project with his own resources and knowledge to create a solution. His main objective was to find a way to let immigrants, regular customers, students, local second hands boutiques, sell or get their items safely while keeping a human touch through a social network.
Indeed, the app is not just a regular platform where you can sell your old stuffs. You can actually interact with your seller or clients instantly, locate items near you, get alerts for your favourite items and host events. They also have video features where you can see the actual condition of the item.
Nelinelo App : New Life, New Love
Nelinelo stands for “New Life, New Love” because the founders believe that their app could help sellers and buyers in finding a new purpose or a lovely home for their old goods. They also encourage recycling as much as possible. What really caught my attention is the community spirit that this social media/online platform has to offer.
After 3-4 months of hard work, testing, brainstorms and promotion for the upcoming app, Nelinelo is now ready to amaze the world!

The End Of An Era And A New Start: Dress To Kill Magazine Goes Digital
A New World Order
I hate to break it down to you so abruptly but the world is changing, the world as we knew it, the way we consume, the way we think and even that good old Dress To Kill magazine is going through it.
Read More: Learn About The Black History In Montreal With This New City Tour
As a young and inexperienced blogger back in 2016, I felt deep in my earth that paper was a dying medium and that the internet was about to carry the torch.
a hundreds of blog posts later, multiple attempts at building an online presence and literally trying to digitize the aesthetics & creativity I saw in magazines growing up.
I must admit 2 things: 1. what it takes to make fashion or information enjoyable is very hard to put together and 2 building an audience on or offline is a GREAT feat.
I grew to admire and respect my peers in traditional media because they made the most out of nothing at a time where Facebook and all those outlets were not a thing.
In case you didn’t know, Dress To Kill magazine is not your average magazine by any shape or form.
Promoting Canadian art and fashion from province to province was something seemingly unthinkable but they got it done.
From iconic covers with Lenny Kravitz and more iconic nights at le Mount Stephen to bring the whole industry under the same roof, DTK got it done.
Don’t take what I’m saying as a farewell note because today actually mark a rebirth for the publication.
Indeed, while the world was going all over the place, they went on a well thought out rebrand.
As you might have guessed, the biggest take away from this is the stoppage of the paper version of the magazine.
The focus is now digital but as I told you earlier, DTK doesn’t go halfway.
Their new platform will include an online boutique which once again is going to focus on shedding light on Canadian creators for men and women.
Do you think more magazines are going to make a full transition to digital?

We Ask A Personal Development Coach How To Overcome The Ins and Outs Of The Crisis
It’s all about your point of view
Everything You Need to Know Through The Lens Of A Personal Development Coach
I’m always amazed at how people like to stigmatize the role or relevance of a personal development coach. They’re quick to label it a scam, a fad, something based on nothing but little they did know, they’re coaches around the world who impacts millions and millions of people in a life changing way. I was looking for the equivalent of a Tony Robbins in Quebec, my research undoubtedly came back to the same name: Marc Dumaine.
Read More: Here’s What I’ve Learned About Myself Since The Coronavirus Crisis Started
Mr Dumaine is more than a personal development coach, he’s a man with a story.
Not your average story either. From overcoming alcohol and drug abuse to obtaining a MBA to running campaigns for some of the biggest corporations in this province. Here’s a man of many battles.
Honorable mention too, these days Marc is focused on creating an international platform to impact as many people he possibly can.
The bottom line is this. This personal development coach is not unfamiliar with trials and tribulations, changes and transitions.
That’s why to me, in a time like this where everything is doing a 180 degree, I had to pick his brain and ask him how can you and I get over.
In this Q&A, we indeed ask Marc Dumaine about several things such as how to bounce back from the crisis, his keys to success and much more.
QUESTIONS FOR MARC DUMAINE
#1 How did you figure yourself out as a future entrepreneur and what was the key factor that made you take that route?I was always an artist at heart and found that I didn’t it in any mole. After completing my MBA, I realized that my biggest assets were my differences. I decided at that moment to stop following what people expected from me and launched my own business. To me being an entrepreneur is an art form in itself. I have never regretted that choice since I launched Asana Coaching 10 years ago. #2 How can someone go from being self-employed to an entrepreneur making money without physically being there?The internet is booming with opportunities right now ! Even with the COVID-19, there is a redefinition of the way people consume products and services ! It is a TIME for being creative and look into endless opportunities ! Get out of our comfort zone and start being inspired by people who are already doing it ! Then, build yourself a right game plan with an amazing branding, and you are all set for the best adventure of your life.
