Chicago IL, Sept. 07, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FOMO CORP. (US OTC: FOMC) has enhanced its SMARTSolution Technologies, LP’s (“SST”) subsidiary management team with the appointment of John Raymond to the title of Interim President adding to his operational role as Head of Procurement. The move is part of the Company’s transition plan for Mitchell Schwartz, Founder and CEO of SST, whose contract expires in February 2023 and will join FOMO’s Board of Directors.
Mr. Raymond has decades of experience in designing, deploying and maintaining large audio-visual systems for corporate America at Anderson’s and LaZ Boy as well as colleges and universities such as Bowling Green. He previously worked in Interior Communications, 2nd Class US Navy and as Vice President of Zaiser Communications, as Systems Manager at Chapel-Romanoff Technologies, and as Systems Manager for Lake Erie Technologies.
Said John Raymond: ““I am pleased to accept the role as Interim President, SMARTSolution Technologies, LP. Our relationship as a subsidiary of FOMO will allow us to advance our core interest in providing Audio Visual and Supplemental Systems to ever-larger market segments. Further, the synergies associated with our sister affiliate, CLEANSolution Technologies, FOMO’s clean tech division, will allow us to broaden and strengthen our market saturation. The growth potential with this relationship, as well as future acquisitions of like-companies, will position SST to be the single-source solution for educational and enterprise facilities tech, air and lighting for years to come. I appreciate this opportunity and look forward to proving the viability of this structure on an ongoing and more permanent basis. As Mr. Schwartz, CEO, SST heads toward a changing role as Brand Ambassador for the business and FOMO, I hope to maintain the high degree of customer service, employee satisfaction and vendor relationships that he built over his many years as CEO.”
Said Mitchell Schwartz, SST’s Founder and CEO: ““When I incorporated SMARTSolution Technologies, LP in 1996, I could not have imagined the professional and personal satisfaction it would bring. These intervening years have seen immense changes in the Audio-Visual Technology space. I have endeavored to maintain, with my staff, cutting-edge offerings to our client base. Our core belief; in fact, our touchstone value: “Always Strive to Provide the Smart Solution at the Smart Price” has guided our efforts over these years. SMARTSolution Technologies, LP has manifested this core belief in over 1,500 customer sites: K-12 Public and Parochial Schools, Higher Education campuses, Municipal and Enterprise facilities and many other market segments and locations.
I look forward to my role evolving from CEO to Brand Ambassador for the company as I move toward retirement. I am pleased to announce the elevation of John Raymond to the position of Interim President, SST. Mr. Raymond brings 25 years of experience in the Low Voltage contracting space. He will take on the day-to-day management of SST and assist in the evaluation of acquisition targets for FOMO. This will allow me to focus on the dynamics brought via our own recent acquisition by FOMO.
There is immense potential for SST under this new ownership and management structure. With FOMO and through our sister affiliate, CLEANSolution Technologies, we will continue to broaden and enhance our offerings to include Clean Air, Energy Efficient Lighting and Power Management. This enhancement of our product portfolio will expand our current customer base and greatly increase our cross-selling opportunities. It is my belief that the acquisition of SST by FOMO will allow us to advance to ever-greater successes. I look forward to participating and championing this growth as we fully engage the potential brought by the acquisition of the company I created 25 years ago.”
