A Year Of Growth

The year 2022 was an exceptional year of Industry Growth. Many of our very familiar Companies grew but not just the bottom line– they matured somewhat. There was a noticeable boost in the way Electric Scooters were being looked at from R&D to and through production. Well known Brands, such as Segway, MiniMotors, Emove, Kaabo, Apollo, and some breakout New ones hit the scene, like BlueTran, Teverun, NUMO with some exciting new Scooters.

I think we are actually moving into an era that shifts us into a very different level of production. Keep in mind– anytime there's a sizable shift in the production of any Brand– especially recognizable Brands, the Industry in itself takes a bump.

In this season of "Growth" we are seeing some indicators that awaken one or two of our spidey-senses and we as consumers start looking around to see who else have tingles. That's because "Growth" inspire, charge and tap each of us ever so firmly that it tips us in the same direction and suddenly a spark ignites and there goes the chatter. Next thing you know, we have all caught flame.

The same can be said for our two OHvation® Award Winners for the year 2022. We have One Manufacturer/Vendor who has been making some big waves as of late and a certain YouTube Dual who has become quite the crowd favorite. Both of these Honored Winners have earned respect, and notoriety. That's because they both caught on to that magical ingredient of natural, raw Consumer interest.

This Year, our Theme is "Growth" and we invite you to join us, as we  celebrate two very familiar names: VoroMotors, and Freshly Charged.

VoroMotors | Panorama City | Southern California

VoroMotors has definitely made a resounding splash in our Industry. I remember connecting with Melvin some four years ago in Downtown Los Angeles and we immediately hit it off. We shared that same kind of heated passion. Instinctively within both our souls– we knew that this Incommture was headed into some what of a boom. I was focused on highlighting the Big Beastly Power Performance Scooters that no one was consistently talking about (and eventually really shed a lot of light on this genre), and Melvin was keen 
on building a solid Distribution Brand (providing quality Products and the highest standard of Service). That model caught my eye and soon we were doing PEV Community work, problem solving and helping all sorts of Rider/ Owner eNthusiasts and novice PEV Users. A brotherhood was born and we been moving forward in our perspective lanes ever since. 

Today, Voro Motors span the United States with nearly twenty Dealers, two new locations (including a 30,000 square foot mega building) that houses a well thought out web of systemic departments that seamlessly moves this massive machine forward). I have watched Melvin expand his business faster than any other Manufacturer/Distributer in the Nation. Now open is the third location in Kapolei, Hawaii. There's Brooklyn, New York (the second location) and the Headquarters in Panorama City, California. Melvin is indeed one of the most disciplined young man I know, and I work with thousands of Business Owners. Melvin is laser focused on doing it right and always improving. He is intuitively in tune with what The Consumer wants and needs. VoroMotors is opened 7 days a week from 9am to 6pm and house a very impressive Parts Department with over fifty thousand sku's.

People often ask me, "how can I scale my business?" and I can honestly say VoroMotors have all the pieces in the right place. From interviewing and hiring the right people, to taking care of those people, having a solid, on-boarding process, Culture, Company Policy, Regulations, Training, Q.C., Employee Handbook, Departmental Management, Marketing, Fulfillment Process, Advertisement and an iron clad system that keeps the cogs moving. Operating such a massive machine takes patience, a solid well picked and managed Team, specific directives and expectations and the will to be the Best from the Top to the subordinate. VoroMotors is definitely doing it right and it shows.

Congratulations Melvin Lian, Your amazing Executive and Management Teams with an exceptionally talented Team of motivated Voro Staff family. We salute Your incredible "Growth" and forward direction as our Esteem Recipient for this Year's only Prestigious Vendor OHvation® Award 2022.

Our next presentation goes to the fastest growing and widely popular Duo YouTube sensation (formerly known as The Jimmy Chang Channel)– Ladies and Gentlemen, I present The "Freshly Charged" smashing Team– Jimmy Chang, and Andrew Nuntapreda.

Freshly Charged | Denver, Colorado

At this stage in the game, Jimmy and Andrew need no formal intro but out of respect for their rapid "Growth", and grand body of work– I would be remised, not to. Rookies, they are not. Jimmy started his You Tube Channel in 2008, highlighting and talking about Electric Unicycles and has garnered over 43 million views. When I came on scene four years ago, Jimmy Chang had around 30K Subscribers. I've watch him bring on Andrew, increase their Scooter content– and Grow rapidly to the tune of over 94K Subscribers 
and counting. Now nearing 100K Subscribers, the sky is the limit. Jimmy and Andrew have a well dialed in system of creating their Content. If you ever get a chance to hang out with them on Rides or create Content it is a magical marriage between the two that just works seamlessly. I watched them catch and over take every other PEV YouTuber out there even ESG.

...with a very humble and simplistic approach to delivering PEV Content, I understand the glean of their success. It's the People. Like Melvin, Myself, and maybe one or two others that I can honestly vouch for in this industry, Jimmy and Andrew has that "it" factor. What is the "it" factor you ask? Well, the "it" factor is when a Person can capture the heart of another from an inner force that sparks the "other". It is an unspeakable "je ne sais quoi" found only in the soul of a person by the soul of the finder and when they meet, it's that humanistic kinship which magically affirm authenticity, thru genuine real concern, empathy, and love for others. 

I see Jimmy and Andrew as my Brothers and I take great pleasure in saying to them– surprise! You both have been mentioned and nominated the most in our National Quest Survey for OHvation Winners. It is no surprise based upon who you both are and your tremendous body of work that many have selected and recognize Jimmy Chang and Andrew Nuntapreda of The duly Titled– Freshly Charged YouTube Channel– Winners of the 2022 Vlogger OHvation Award. Congratulations guys– on a job well done.

    I have been a Two Wheel enthusiast for decades. Now COVID has driven me to a love that I may not've ever fancied... eScooters.

    I give an unbiased, raw account of eScooter Veracity.

    Using my Ohvation™
    Rating System.

    Recommend your
    Favorite Scooter,
    ​a Brand– or a Purchase, and I'll Review/Rate it.

    I rate Scooters
    using five basic
    Principles:

    ​• Scootability™
    • Scootenuity™
    • Scootsation™
    • Scootsique™
    ​• Scootfillment™

    These Five Principles cover Ten Essentials:
    ​
    1. Stability
    2. Performance
    - - - - - - - - - - - -
    3. Value
    4. Quality
    - - - - - - - - - - - -
    5. Safety
    6. Maintenance
    - - - - - - - - - - - -
    7. Durability
    8. Customization
    - - - - - - - - - - - -
    9. Shipping
    10. Cust Service

    Our algorithm then calculates a total final "Oh" Rating between 1 & 5 "Ohs"
