$AMIH Appoints Original “Shark Tank” Investor Kevin Harrington to its Advisory Board;
With 40 Year Track Record, Harrington has Produced over $5 Billion in Global Sales, Launched over 500 Products
Addison, TX, March 18, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- American International Holdings Corp. (OTCQB: AMIH), a diversified holding company dedicated to acquiring and operating health, wellness, infrastructure and technology companies, today announced that iconic businessman, veteran entrepreneur and inaugural “Shark Tank” investor Kevin Harrington has joined its newly formed Advisory Board.
In that role, Mr. Harrington will serve for a two-year term as the Company’s Brand Ambassador and Advisor on marketing, promotions, acquisitions, licensing and all other sales and growth initiatives.
Mr. Harrington is widely known for being an original “Shark” investor on the ABC television hit series “Shark Tank.” He has launched over 20 businesses that have grown to over $100 million in sales each. He has launched over 500 products generating more than $5 billion in sales worldwide with iconic brands and celebrities such as Jack LaLanne, Tony Little and George Foreman.
“I consider it a privilege to be a part of AMIH, and to contribute to its mission of revolutionizing healthcare and wellness for main street America,” Mr. Harrington stated and added, “I am eagerly looking forward to rolling up my sleeves and helping foster its growth and to promote its brands to new levels of success.”
Commenting on Mr. Harrington’s appointment to the Company’s newly formed Advisory Board, AMIH Chief Executive Officer, Jacob Cohen, said, “We’re thrilled. Kevin is a legendary entrepreneur with expertise and connections that I’m confident will accelerate our growth exponentially over the next couple years.
“Not only has Kevin agreed to provide endorsements, appearances and other assets to promote our products and services, but I expect his advisory services will be vital to our business development, marketing, acquisitions and other growth initiatives,” Mr. Cohen stated and continued, “Kevin will be a truly world class asset and addition to our Advisory Board.”
Additional information regarding Mr. Harrington’s appointment is included in the Current Report on Form 8-K which the Company is filing today with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Advisory Board’s mandate is to provide guidance to the Board of Directors regarding business development, marketing, acquisitions, other strategic initiatives and other matters as may be requested.
About Kevin Harrington
Through his entrepreneurial experiences, Kevin realized his talent for turning underutilized assets into growth opportunities. While watching late-night television, he realized nothing was being broadcast on the Discovery Channel after normal broadcast hours. He seized the opportunity to launch what later came to be called the infomercial. Before long, he had helped make, “but wait, there’s more,” part of our cultural history. He’s launched massively successful products like The Food Saver, Ginsu Knives, The Great Wok of China, The Flying Lure, and many more.
He has worked with amazing celebrities like Billie Mays, Tony Little, Jack Lalanne, and George Foreman to name a few. Kevin then built on that success to help pioneer the As Seen on TV brand. After empowering others to achieve success, he recognized the shifting marketplace trends and began to intentionally build his personal brand.
His platform-building efforts earned him a seat as an original “shark” on the hit TV show Shark Tank, where he continued to live out his passion -- empowering entrepreneurs to greatness. As a business shark, Kevin knows how to disrupt the marketplace and orchestrate a killer investment deal, bring the best resources to the table and build thriving businesses from scratch. But his people-first, win-win perspective is at the heart of everything.
Like his sales mentor, Zig Ziglar said, “You can have everything in life you want, if you will just help enough other people get what they want.” Kevin’s been called The Entrepreneur’s Entrepreneur and the Entrepreneur Answer Man, because he knows the challenges unique to start-ups and has a special passion for helping entrepreneurs succeed.
