The cannabis industry is ripe with innovation and every day we have new inventors, strategists, investors, and professionals entering the market. We all know that cannabis has been one of the fastest growing industries in America, and is poised to be a 22 billion dollar market according to some reports by 2021. With so many people in the industry, the competitive landscape is also plentiful, and being unique and solving a true problem is the solution for sustainable success. You might have the best idea, product, or solution, however, without the right marketing or awareness, you might never be able to move forward. Being an entrepreneur is hard. You’ve got to balance a ton of things like getting to market, finding funding, and building a team, while getting massive exposure. I get the pleasure to work with a lot of entrepreneurs in the cannabis space, and one thing all of them need help with is building their network. I decided to dedicate one episode a month on helping entrepreneurs tell their story on Cannabis Business Minds. On this episode of Cannabis Business Minds, I have to pleasure of speaking with Jon Hurst of Stinky Bush. Jon is a veteran that served this country, and like many veterans suffer from PTSD. Jon is building a craft cannabis brand in Oregon with the goal of empowering the local and veteran community.     You can find Jon at jonhurst18@gmail.com
