Builds His Future By Joining The Army of Small Business Owners In
The Greater Sudbury Area |
|

| Troy Felice at age 31 is trying to build a better future
for himself by joining the army of small business owners who have turned
to entrepreneurship in an attempt to escape the cycle of low-paying,
dead-end jobs.
Born and raised in Valley East, Troy attended St. Anne School in Hanmer
and then started out at Confederation Secondary School in Val Caron. He
moved away from home at the age of 18 and dropped out of Lasalle Secondary
School, three credits short of his grade 12 diploma. The past thirteen
years have been filled with episodes working at call centres, on welfare,
and even a stint as a financial planner.
He was considering starting his own business when his father told him
about a company that he had seen on the Oprah Winfrey Show. After thorough
investigation of the business, Troy now finds himself as the owner of
SLEEP WELL, and is an authorized dealer for Hygienitech Mattress Cleaning
Systems. |
 The
Hygienitech Mattress Cleaning System combines high frequency, pulsating
waves, incredible suction and a patented, high intensity germ killing, UVC
light to pulverize and extract all the dist mites, bacteria, viruses,
fungal spores, harmful organisms and other sediment that accumulates in
your mattresses.
The entire Hygienitech process is a dry, chemical free process, so
there is no odor, no drying time and it's safe for any type of mattress,
from crib to king size.
The link between sleeping on a clean mattress and reducing allergies
was discovered in Europe, more than 14 years ago. Recent estimates
indicate that more than 21% of the homes in Europe have mattress cleaning
services performed on a regular basis. Europeans consume just a fraction
of the allergy and cold medications that North American's take every year.
The process is quite simple. Troy will come into your home and do a
short test on your mattress. After taking a sample of the contaminants
from your mattress, he puts the sediment through a test kit which
indicates to you the extent of contamination in your mattress. After you
examine the easy to read, colour-coded allergen test, you can decide if
you would like Troy to give the mattress the full treatment. Best of all,
there is absolutely no charge or obligation for the test.

| "I immediately fell in love with the idea of becoming
a dealer for Hygienitech once I learned more about the problems it can
solve for most people," explained Troy. I've always been interested
in fitness and nutrition, and it was obvious that this process can have a
huge impact on the general health of an individual." |

| According to experts, your mattress houses millions of dust
mites, along with mounds of human skin cells, dust, dirt, debris,
droppings and litres of sweat residue. Your mattress is an ideal breeding
ground for hundreds of thousands of microscopic dust mites that each leave
behind up to a hundred fecal pellets each day. And studies have shown that
dust mite feces is a major allergen trigger, making life miserable for
many people. If you or a family member wakes up at night with itchy skin
or red and irritated eyes; a stuffed up nose; a barrage of sneezes;
wheezing or tight chest; painful head or sinus ache; a general feeling of fatigue;
or even depression for no reason at all, then the odds are that the
millions of dust mites that have made a home in the mattress are the
culprits. |
 |
| It takes Troy about an hour of your time to come into your
home, perform the initial test to determine the level of contamination,
and then treat your mattress. And you will feel the results when you wake
up the very next morning. The first time Troy tried the process on his own
mattress, he immediately felt a new level of energy when he woke up.
The publisher of Valley East Today, Robert Kirwan and his wife Valerie
both state that they felt the difference even when they first got into bed
the day of the treatment, "The air seemed to feel drier and neither
of us were plugged up like we normally were at bed time," indicated
Robert. "And when Troy tried to do the initial test on our mattress
he couldn't pull out enough contamination to even do the test, so I
can imagine what it would be like to have a really contaminated
mattress."
The most important thing is that another young person from the Greater
Sudbury Area is attempting to remain in the region by finding a service
that can improve the quality of life of local residents. All Troy has to
do now is get the message out and generate a steady flow of clients. Since
it is recommended that this treatment be performed twice a year on every
mattress in the home, it appears as if it is a business that can grow and
prosper in the Sudbury Area.
This is an affordable way of reducing the affects of allergens in the
home. A queen-sized bed can be treated for less than $50. Furthermore,
Troy is also prepared to treat furniture such as couches and chairs since
these are also places where dust mites flourish.
If you are interested in having Troy come in to do a test on your
mattress, give him a call at 626-6483 and help him make a success out of
his new business venture, SLEEP WELL! |
