The presentation at a restaurant included family, friends and clients of Larry Beheler's auto sales business.
Seated in a room at A&P restaurant having breakfast were members of Beheler’s family, customers who had bought automobiles from his used car dealership and teammates of Vollara.
Vollara sells fresh air purifiers. A family member was recording Beheler’s sales pitch. The company claims, through its website, “Vollara has a simple story based on a foundation of complete health focusing on cleaner air, pristine water, and cellular nutrition.”
Beheler, who organizes the Family Fest fishing tournament, is working on selling the Vollara products.
Harold Elmore, Beheler’s first teammate drove from Greensboro, N.C., and Arnie Litchfield, his newest teammate, helped provide support.
Beheler said he wasn’t selling at the breakfast, but he was asking for volunteers to sign up to try the air purifier.
Two demonstrations, one with smell and the other pollution, were shown with “what I call a thunderstorm in a box,” Beheler said. The box was filled with smoke and cleared within seconds by the technology Vollara promotes.
A handkerchief with ammonia smell was laid over the same box and one minute later the odor was removed. “It shows what technology does with cleaning air,” Beheler said.
Michelle Romano, who bought a van from Beheler, said her family is expanding with two foster children being adopted and she is pregnant with their first child after 13 years of marriage. Romano also runs an in-home daycare. Two dogs are also part of the household.
“If that will help me headache free, I will try it,” Romano said. She signed up for a home demonstration.
“They (purifiers) don’t only take care of clean air but kills germs,” Beheler said.
