Project Description

Agni NY focuses on encouraging others to relax as a measure to overcome challenges and improve stress reduction for wellness. I have incorporated my nursing background and personal experience as a patient with Crohn's Disease to develop Agni NY.  Both experiences have taught me the importance of managing stress and how stress can have a negative impact on health if not controlled. These experiences have led me to create Agni NY.

Agni NY aims to help others gain further insight into stress reduction. The information and products on the store are designed to encourage individuals to understand how the wellness of their health relates to stress. 

The business has an opportunity to grow on a global scale. Stress is a normal response to changes in the body. When the stress is elevated the body is distressed. Given all humans experience stress and depending on their environment, stress can be heightened. With my background in nursing and my experience in nursing there is an opportunity to branch the business into a global industry. Data shows that 77% of people experience symptoms from stress, 33% live with extreme stress, and 48% of people feel their stress has increased in the past five years.

The candles, diffuser oils, massage oils, cold-pressed essential oil drops are made by hand and scented with essential oils. The products are focused on providing a form of aromatherapy with essential oils in various forms. There are also Turkish towels and handmade soaps. The company aims to provide products made by artisans who have specialized craftsmanship. The company also provides information on aromatherapy and an overview on holistic living. The goal is to provide as much information on incorporating aromatherapy and holistic living to relax. 

I currently fund my business with my personal income and make regular sales. It is difficult to fund the business and maintain my personal expenses, especially because I have monthly medical expenses. In order to grow the business, there is a need to improve marketing and build a team of personnel that can assist with growing the business. I am seeking funding to market and build my team. With the funds I will be able to establish the brand, market products, and build my team. I will also be able to develop the current brand and implement other projects which can scale the business. 

The daily operations are performed by me, except for the bookkeeping. The bookkeeper was outsourced to track the finances of the business. 

I truly appreciate your support and you taking the time to help me develop my dreams. Your financial support helps me to develop Agni NY and carry my efforts into giving back to communities that are underserved. As the business grows, Agni NY sets out to help give back to communities with limited resources and aging adults. Your support is like water on a seed, it helps us to grow and we in turn can help someone else. Together we make changes. With much gratitude, thank you from Agni NY.
