Denys Paniv
As a trucking company owner and CEO, I have extensive experience in the logistics and transportation industry in the USA, with over 15 years in the field. I've transitioned from being a company driver to an owner-operator and have successfully built a company with over 300 trucks.
Simple advice on the beginning stages of your trucking company can save you a lot of time and money. I've encountered many challenges along the way, but some could have been avoided with proper advice!
Along with this, I've been a husband for 15 years and a father to 3 children. Between managing success in business and family, I've been able to achieve personal goals in sports like competitive bodybuilding, CrossFit, powerlifting, and I'm a finisher of multiple marathons, two of them being Chicago marathons. I've also completed multiple Ironman triathlons, with a finishing time of 10:48 in Panama City Beach, FL. Lots of goals still lie ahead, keeping me motivated to grow and grind through.
I'm an immigrant, having come to the USA at the age of 20 with $500 in my pocket and a desire to succeed in life. This year marks 18 years of living and working in the USA.
I'm only getting started, and my mission is to share my knowledge with those who also want to achieve big results!

Tigran Bekian
Right hand to CEO & Founder Patrick Bet-David. Currently Vice President of Sales and Distribution at PHP Agency, started in 2009 by Patrick with 66 licensed life insurance agents now nearly 50,000 in all 50 states and Puerto Rico.
Over the last decade under PBDs mentorship, I’ve gained knowledge and expertise in areas of human nature, conflict resolution, processing issues, and most importantly driving sales. The how to’s of driving sales executives to build and scale their business ranging from $100K to over $40MM+ in annual sales specifically in the 1099 world.
1. Processing issues - human nature. One of the areas most people fall short is in the area of conflict resolution. The faster you can deal and process issues the faster you can move on to scaling your business.
2. Identify the right metrics to drive utilizing initiative campaigns to help drive the right behavior while increasing top line revenue for your business. I.e. compensation structure, bonus programs and creative incentives.
3. How to create trust and build stronger relationships within your sales organization. Separating friendship vs mentorship. This is key team building and driving leaders, always remember the strong the relationship the more you can challenge the person.
Looking forward to connecting with you here on Minnect to share ideas, bring value, providing insight to help you grow & scale your business.

Roman Sharf
***ALL PROCEEDS GO TO CHARITY***
Roman Sharf’s dynamic blend of hustle, business savvy, and charisma have driven his company from a
single transaction to a $150 million a year business.
The son of immigrants fleeing repression in the Soviet Union in 1988, Roman is an American Dream high
achiever. His hustle—combined with drive, tenacity and humility—were there from the very beginning.
Whether the job was delivering papers, working as a dishwasher or bus boy, or driving a bagel truck,
Roman crushed it. After a season in construction, he joined the US Army at age 18. His service as a
calvary forward observer opened the door to Penn State on the G.I. Bill. Seeing a future in IT, he
parlayed his engineering degree into a position at Deutsche Bank, quickly rising to a six-figure salary and
a Vice President’s title by the age of 26.
A chance request to help sell a luxury watch was the start of a remarkable business success story.
Working from his basement selling high end watches on eBay, he was able to exceed his bank salary
within two years.
With business savvy and financial acumen acquired in equal parts from his executive role at a
multinational bank and the menial jobs of his youth, Roman has created a powerhouse in the watch and
jewelry wholesale and retail business. He learned the nuts and bolts of how business works, how to sell,
how to inspire and lead people, how to scale a business, and how to grow profit.
The success of Luxury Bazaar is in no small measure thanks to Roman’s charisma. Whether he is focusing
on inspiring an employee, wooing a customer, or engaging millions of YouTube viewers, Roman has an
uncommon ability to connect with people. In a trust-based business, his reputation is impeccable and his
relationships are long-standing. And people enjoy doing business with him, as employees, suppliers, and
customers.
The hustle that drove a pre-teen paper boy to excel remains strong today as Roman’s business stands
poised for exponential growth. Roman looks at his success so far and says: “It doesn’t mean we are
done.” Indeed, he plans to go far and beyond with the business, growing exponentially to over $300
million as the next level.
