    An encyclopedia article needs to be supported by reliable, secondary, independent sources that treat the topic in substantive detail and be aware that no amount of editing can overcome a lack of notability. If the right types of sources, with the right depth of treatment, don't exist, don't waste your own time.

{{AFC comment|1=Since articles like this are almost always written by insiders, coupled with this being such a blatant commercial, makes it a near certainty that you need to comply [[Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure]]. You may not have been aware of that, but it is mandatory and it's not difficult. Do not edit this further until you do so. Meanwhile, this needs a fundamental rewrite to remove the hagiography. Wikipedia is not a platform for promotion.--~~~~}}

I have re-declined without a source review because upon coming across this submission, I had to remove almost all the prose given that it was copy-paste copyright violation.
