Self-taught cannabis cultivator and business owner, Brandon Banks, stands up for minority inclusion in the industry both as an individual and as a member of Minority Cannabis Business Association. Listen to his passionate journey of getting into the industry from growing sprouts in his basement to award-winning cannabis strains, and becoming a dispensary owner. Despite more state regulations being progressively created in the US, there are significant gaps on social equity and industry accessibility to minorities. Community reinvestment and license openings are just a couple of goals in the MCBA's work. Their members participate in policy creation to raise these matters and aim for more inclusive legal frameworks.

Learn about an entrepreneur’s high-stakes adventures in the budding legal marijuana business. Hippies, stoners, burn-outs, psychedelic art, Woodstock. These are all the stereotypes and associations that society uses to identify people who smoke marijuana. However, these stereotypes are becoming what we consider the "Old World" of marijuana. With propaganda films like Reefer Madness, the Old World aimed to scare Americans away from a plant, saying it would drive them insane and turn them into murderers, prostitutes, or worse. The “New World,” however, is vastly different. It’s become a world where private equity firms invest millions of dollars in this hot new industry. It’s a world where law-abiding citizens can check into a pricey bed and breakfast for the weekend and legally smoke a joint while relaxing naked in a hot tub. It’s a world where chronically or terminally ill patients have access to a natural product that can help alleviate the symptoms of their diseases. It’s a world where building a lifestyle brand like Apple or Starbucks is a very real and likely possibility. This type of brand is exactly what entrepreneur Christian Hageseth set out to achieve. Throughout Big Weed, you will learn Hageseth’s story as he became a major player in the cannabis industry, telling you the ins and outs surrounding the world of weed, and how he turned Green Man Cannabis into a multi-million dollar business.

So if you’ve been getting my emails this week, you know that I’m extremely excited that my friend Teeka Tiwari has spent the last year traveling around the world to find out the best way to invest in the cannabis revolution that’s taking place in the US right now. If you’ve been listening to the show for a while, you know that this is a topic I’m extremely interested in. We’ve interviewed the founder of Green Man Cannabis, Christian Hagaseth, and Dr. Mike Hart, who’s been on Joe Rogan’s show, and who is one of the biggest advocates in the world for the medicinal benefits that cannabis can provide. Right now, outside of crypto, cannabis is the single best investment opportunity of our lives, but figuring out the best way to invest in the industry, isn’t very clear at all. Should you invest in the farms that are growing the plants? Should you invest in the processing and manufacturing facilities? Should you invest in the consumer brands like Dan Bilzarian’s Ignite? Should you invest in a Cannabis stock fund, or ETF? The options are endless, and just like crypto, you can make life-changing money, but there is also a significant amount of risk involved. The good news, is that you can dramatically reduce that level of risk when you arm yourself with research and information, which is exactly what Teeka has done. He’s found the greatest point of leverage in this new industry, and in my humble opinion, you’d be foolish not to invest a small amount of money in this industry right now. So I asked him to jump on the phone today for this quick interview to help us navigate the industry, and to share what he’s learned. Now tonight, June 26th, he will be holding a live webinar sharing what they’ve discovered in detail, and while I can’t say exactly what it is publicly before he does, I can tell you this… You’re going to have the opportunity to participate in some private-placement opportunities alongside myself and the rest of his team, in the Cannabis industry. The time he invested in one of these, he turned $1,000, into $1.6 million. So if this is an area of interest for you, as it is for me, make sure you head to PalmBeachGoesGreen.com to register for tonight’s webinar. I do know that these opportunities are definitely limited in nature, so you’re going to want to be at the front of the line for what they’re going to share. Again, you can register to attend tonight’s live webinar at www.PalmBeachGoesGreen.com. If you need to pause the recording and pull up your browser, do that right now, and then we’ll dive into this extremely interesting interview with Teeka.

A few months ago, we interviewed Chris Hageseth, the founder of Green Man Cannabis about the incredible business opportunities that are being created right now as Cannabis is quickly being legalized state-by-state. Well today we’re joined by Dr. Mike Hart who is one of the foremost experts in the world when it comes to the health benefits that cannabis, and cannabinoid oils can provide. If his name sounds familiar, it’s because he was recently featured on Joe Rogan’s podcast to discuss this very same topic. Personally, these plant medicines have provided the single biggest benefit to me over the past year while I’ve been dealing with the health challenges that I’ve discussed previously, so I am now a walking, talking billboard for what this medicine can do. So today Dr. Hart is going to walk us through the differences between the types of products and medicines being produced from this plant, what kind of effects they have on the human body, where to find them, and how you can benefit from them as well.

There are two industries around the world that are on the cusp of exponential growth… The first is crypto currencies and assets like Bitcoin, and the second is grass, ganja, the reefer, mary jane, aka, marijuana. Thanks to the states of Colorado and Washington, the doors were opened to the recreational legalization of cannabis in 2012. Since then 47 out of 50 states have legalized marijuana sales for medical use, while 11 have made it fully legal for sale recreationally. But those laws are changing incredibly fast as the general public’s perception of marijuana has started to change, and as these state government’s begin to the see the considerable amount of tax revenue being generated by this new industry. Within the next few years, the recreational sale and use of cannabis will be legalized across the country. Just like Crypto, this decriminalization process has kicked-off a new gold rush for savvy, forward thinking entrepreneurs. The race to capture the next $100 Billion market has begun, and today we’re joined by one of the biggest players in the industry, Christian Hageseth. Christian is the Founder of Green Man Cannabis, which is an award winning cultivation and dispensary company out of Colorado. Today, Christian is creating the first dispensary franchise through the ONE Cannabis Group, and they will be taking the company public in Q1 of 2019. Whether it’s creating your own line of CBD supplements, buying a One Cannabis Franchise, or simply investing in the stock of these companies as they start to go public, the opportunities this new industry is creating for entrepreneurs like you, are absolutely endless. If this is an industry that you’d like to learn more about, and learn quickly, then I’d recommend picking up a copy of Christian’s book, Big Weed. In a nod to Big Oil, Big Tobacco and Big Alcohol, Big Weed will bring you up to speed on every facet of the industry, and give you a basic lay of the land so you can start to understand it, and identify opportunities. So without further ado, please help me welcome, Christian Hageseth.

Key Takeaways: [0:22] Today’s episode of Franchise Euphoria is brought to you by The Franchise 5 package. Head over to franchiseeuphoria.com/franchise5 to learn more! [1:01] Josh introduces today’s guest, Christian Hageseth, the founder and CEO of ONE Cannabis. [3:11] Welcome to Franchise Euphoria, Christian Hageseth! [3:36] Christian gives a brief overview of what led him to the franchise cannabis industry. [6:58] ONE Cannabis has sold units in Ohio, Colorado, and Michigan. [7:52] The cannabis industry has actually been around for a while now California having legalized it in 1996 and Colorado in 1999. [9:07] One of the biggest challenges with a cannabis business is getting financial backing through banks and credit unions. [13:36] ONE Cannabis is a fully-vertical marijuana business meaning that they are involved in the process from cultivating the product to retailing it. [16:40] ONE Cannabis didn’t even begin considering the franchise model until they had eight years of experience in the industry and fully ensuring they had mastered their craft. [22:13] Currently, ONE Cannabis is focused on expanding into California. Once they overcome some franchise registration hurtles, they will benefit from having ample amount of cultivation areas for their product. [24:36] For their franchised locations, the ideal structure is having their franchisees be the head of the business operations but with a management team in place beneath them who have relevant industry experience. [27:00] Christian looks forward to adding the real estate component to the business since one of the biggest challenges in the cannabis business is getting the right location. [31:26] If you want to learn more about ONE Cannabis, you should visit one-cannabis.com or give them a call at (303) 922-2122.
