Why Starting A Marijuana Business Is So Hard | Big Business
Starting a weed business isn’t easy. It can take $1 million in startup capital to even get a license. And to keep a cannabis business going? That means jumping through complicated regulation hoops. If they can play the game right, cannabis entrepreneurs could be set up for success in an exploding marijuana industry. But with weed still federally illegal, companies could face fines or jail time if they don’t follow the rules. We visited three companies in Colorado and Oregon to see how they’re dealing with the ever-changing regulations. Could things get easier if weed becomes federally legal?

Why Starting A Marijuana Business Is So Hard | Big Business
As an ex smoker, take care of your mental health. ❤
Not hard in canada 🙂 🙂
Democrats = BIG government
Life in America became a struggle in every sense of the word.
4:28 only if there was a scanner that can upload that in to like excel sheet you could of save so much time rip
funny how the first and last barrier are always money
It’s ironic how something is illegal can be performed legally.
Why does everything have to be about race .America is supposed to be free for all not just one or the other
Selling weed legally is hard but selling weed isn’t hard….re read that 😈
This video was doing so well until they started bringing up racial justice and equity.
1) Among the reasons for legalizing marijuana, creating a jobs program for minorities should not be one of them. I support marijuana legalization because it is safe and criminalizing drug use is wrong, not because I think it will help minorities make money.
2) People should be allowed to crowdsource money to start a marijuana business, but the government should not be giving minorities preferential treatment through loans.
3) If the government wants to use the tax revenue generated from the marijuana industry to help victims of the war on drugs, I think that is fine. If the majority of victims are minorities, then a proportional amount of that money will be allocated to helping them.
thats why i dont use a licence
lamo
Do they get high from just being there?
On the one hand I don’t want to see big business take over the weed industry,on the other hand,I couldnt careless about the little guys grow operations and them getting squeezed out,these are usually skill less idiots,who want to grow a plant and get rich off of it and now they are mad because after expenses and competition, growing weed ends up being a 20 dollar an hour job
Wow USA really greedy on money they will take anything for the money
#1 Federal Laws, #2 Competitors, #3 STEADY/QUALITY product without busts is hard.
been doin it for 2 yrs now, cant say where but just come and gimme a call at 0201 on any pay phone in UK. price is reasonable as well
For Legal Reasons that’s a joke.
nuleaf kinda racist
Are we done segregating people into black, brown and white? We are all humans, cut the shit.
if there are many difficult and burden restrictions and it’s expensive to start then why these people risk it and start the business?
its so hard because you’re in competition with the strongest gang in the world, the US government
Need to Federalize this for efficiency and treat people like Adults
I’m sorry but this is just more cool than zoom classes
they cant take the community out of the community if we wanted all of us who grow kush could get together grow and give it away for free
how long would we need to do this to get rid of these mass producers?
couple seasons so their profits ruined.
The simple answer is government is the reason starting a marijuana business is so hard… There are currently millions of people out there (Even children) with their own little thriving marijuana business.
Weed should just be legal everywhere it’s literally harmless I see more good out of it than bad.
It’s always about the money big pharma don’t want the people to understand THC and it’s medicinal purposes. So they throw a shit load of money to the government saying all this fake shit to keep them in control pumping out pills that have taken more lives then weed has ever done in history
Legalize Marijuana!
So many junkies here.
You could say it is a hard canna-buisness 😀
"for the communities most harmed by the war on drugs" that gave me a laugh
It’s BS here in AZ you can tell that the industry is ran by people who are just rich and don’t understand cannabis it’s ridiculous. Has me thinking why are we paying so much for this and why is this still federally illegal !
Why Starting A Marijuana Business
The government only legalize 🌿 because it will be taxed and that means MONEY 💰
2012 our shop was open for over a year already, but then Feds pulled our security gate down, took all plants, and basically robbed us.
We bounced back BIG TIME ! … but were one of the LUCKY 12%
Only 12% of “legit” marijuana businesses succeed.
Our brand is popular throughout the SFV right now, but that could change.
You never know in this business.
It’s a GAMBLE , plain and simple… almost all businesses are, but this one has tremendously BAD ODDS.
12:41 Anyone catch the filter come out as she took a hit, one of the most agitating things to happen to a stoner and also a sign she rolled it a bit loose at the end
Love Marijuaana
Save America please
Trust me it isn’t 80k expensive
Bs. The truth is someone with million dollar is all ready ahead of your game.
That why.
Someone with industrial tools and enough money to run a bank.
Man’s been selling weed since high school I dropped out of school to sell weed learn some stuff school couldn’t teach.
Just come to Canada, every town has 5+ stores selling the same products
"One dose is 5MG, in other states its 10MG, etc."
lol
12:29 eita porra, vela de 7 dias ?
In the Netherlands it has been legal for years
Talk about being racist
it’s very hard to start a marijuana dispensary because you have to have the right agricultural paperwork as well as the right tax bracket plus you need a land contractor finally you will have to be careful about the black mold that grows in the canvas
Please Britain just legalise it already
…and I promise you that biz lost customers just cause of the idiot wearing a BLM T-shirt ! 🤣
DO NOT let your employees, wear ANY TYPE of POLITICAL T-shirt , ESPECIALLY when dealing with CUSTOMERS ! ! !
VERY amateur mistake
