We started on a journey into the cannabis niche a little more than 2 years ago...
And Deeper Down The Rabbit Hole...
The cannabis niche is a fun and strange place. With the recent regulations over the last few years and the explosion of cannabis (and dab) culture, the proliferation of the legal cannabis market has grown at a compound annual interest rate of 29%! (According to https://www.arcviewmarketresearch.com/ )
In this explosion, my team and I found ourselves in the middle of it, having a facebook page of over 250k at the time, we launched http://420smokers.us/ and have since grown it to over 450k social followers and tens of thousands of readers per month.
The Deeper We Went...
The more we found out about the industry. About how companies such as Massroots and Weedmaps have choked small businesses and dispensaries almost of out business. They act like a mafia. Their weapons are reviews and yelp style manipulations.
Trying To Change All That...
We decided enough was enough and set out on building a cannabis network that is owned by stoners for stoners.

Interesting! Looking forward to reading part 2 and hearing more of your story :D
