“BRANDING BUD: THE COMMERCIALIZATION OF CANNABIS” RELEASES
THE FIRST BOOK TO EXPLORE THE LEGAL CANNABIS BRAND LANDSCAPE

We are excited to announce the release of branding and marketing expert David Paleschuck’s highly anticipated book“Branding Bud: The Commercialization Of Cannabis” (www.brandingbud.com). The publication is a compelling must-read that digs deep into the ever-changing cannabis industry to uncover what brands of all sizes are doing to introduce their products to the hearts and minds of cannabis consumers.

With the global legal cannabis market valued at US$17.7 billion in 2019, it is expected to grow exponentially and projected to reach US$73.6 billion in 2027. Celebrities, athletes, politicians, and large corporations alike are investing and competing in this fast-paced industry. Leveraging the most up-to-date industry research, Paleschuck takes a critical look at the current state of legal US cannabis products, packaging, and consumption.

“My intent in writing the book is to normalize how we look at cannabis as a nation, and as consumers. Never before has a plant been so misunderstood; and those associated with it, so mistreated. As legalization continues, it’s my hope that we’ll look at cannabis and cannabis consumers in a new and different way”, says Paleschuck.

Published by legendary cannabis expert Ed Rosenthal’s publishing house, Quick American Publishing, the first-of-its-kind book also breaks new territory, offering a comprehensive overview and contextualization of this new segment, examining the multitude of emerging brands, their creative assets, and the strategies behind them. “Branding Bud” touches upon the political and legal history of cannabis; consumer segments and means of consumption; and how that has informed the legal cannabis brand landscape developing today.

“Branding Bud” also answers the questions “Who exactly is the cannabis consumer? What’s their lifestyle(s)? What brands speak to them? Is there just one type of cannabis consumer? Are the images of the same celebrities stereotyping cannabis smokers? And to push even further, is ‘smoking’ itself a stereotype of cannabis consumption?”

“Branding Bud: The Commercialization Of Cannabis” will launch globally on April 20, 2021 and is currently available for pre-order on AMAZON (Link to purchase HERE).

WHAT THE EXPERTS ARE SAYING ABOUT THE BOOK
“This book provides an indispensable perspective for entrepreneurs, brand creators, and marketers as they get ready to establish themselves in this very promising industry.”
Brian Wansolich, Co-Founder, Leafly and Headset

Join me on Episode 15 when I get to catch up with Martin Lee : Co-Founder & Director of Project CBD. I had the honor of working with Martin in 2017 and always enjoyed our conversations and captivated whenever I heard him speak. His team at Project CBD collaborated with Reader's Digest to write "The Essential Guide to CBD: Everything You Need to Know About What It Helps, Where to Buy, And How to Take It" available now!

Martin Lee is a wealth of knowledge and a master wordsmith in his books:
1985 – Acid Dreams: The CIA, LSD, and the Sixties Rebellion
1990 – Unreliable Sources: A Guide to Detecting Bias in News Media 
1997 – The Beast Reawakens: Fascism's Resurgence
2012 – Smoke Signals: A Social History of Marijuana – Medical, Recreational, and Scientific

His journey led him to co-creating Project CBD in 2009 with fellow journalists who had been covering the medical marijuana story—the science, the movement and the industry. They felt that the reintroduction of CBD-rich cannabis into the grassroots supply merited special attention. The serendipitous reappearance of whole plant CBD in Northern California in 2009 has given doctors and patients a unique opportunity to evaluate the effects of cannabidiol. Project CBD updates doctors and patients on developments in cannabis science, therapeutics and political economy.

Episode 14: I had the pleasure speaking with Nick Ciufo. He plays beautifully between Cannabis and Mushrooms. We first go into the growing practices of TAO Gardens. I was stoked to see the use of Blumat and custom living soil from Build a Soil  in his indoor grow. Nick is nice enough to share knowledge learned about Fungus and the difference between Functional Mushrooms and Medicinal Psilocybin  Mushrooms.

Today we take a journey with co-founder Josh Kirby of Kin Slips and cover everything from Full Spectrum Vs. Isolate, Ensemble/Entourage Effect, Curating your Cannabinoid consumption. 

We also delve into why edibles can be like playing Russian roulette with your high. Terpenes play an interesting role in interacting with our olfactory system, let's explore where they make sense like in a sublingual strip but not in a capsule. Find out why on this episode of Know Grow Create!

Citrus, pine, limonene, pinene,uplifting

Kin Slips need people understand: 

1. Edibles | First Pass Metabolism: Cannabis formulations effect you, different things going on cannabinoids interacting with ECS, happens thru blood stream bounces off or unlocks cb1/2 receptors and fire off signals to the rest of your body. 
2. Also compounds terpenes/flavinoids don’t interact with blood stream, they work with your oral factories through smell and taste, terpenes in food, plant, everything, mainly for flavor and taste, when you are trying to have a reaction to a terpene, relax, linalool, can’t put that in a capsule and swallow because it won’t interact with your oral factory. Sublingual with access similar to smoking and vaping. Does this work for SoulinU? 

Evaporate and work with access terpenes, dissolving in mouth breathing, machinery working and get terpenes as they warm up in mouth some of them volatile and evaporate and then move through your human machinery, make it a more robust experience with terpenes. 

With over twenty years of brand-building and consumer marketing experience at American Express, MasterCard, PepsiCo and Microsoft – and over seven years in the legal cannabis industry as VP, Licensing & Brand Partnerships at Dope  Magazine; and most recently as Chief Brand Officer at Evergreen Herbal – Paleschuck has played a part in creating many of today’s well-known cannabis brands. His writings on cannabis trends, branding and packaging have been featured in The Cannabis Industry Journal, New Cannabis Ventures, Dope Magazine, High Times, PROHBTD,  among others.

David and I have gotten to know each other through Club House and we have had some really great conversations. I wanted to have him on the podcast to hear more about his book and his perspectives on ever aspect of cannabis. Since this recording we have started a club in Club House called "All Things Cannabis".
