Top Marijuana Franchise

The medical marijuana industry is one of the most rapidly growing in the US, exceeding even the smart phone industry (Business Week 2014). Many people jump in the industry being overly optimistic they can succeed simply if they have a quality product. It's not that simple.

Like any other business, just having a quality product or service is not enough. It's only the first of many steps to having a successful business. Without going over all the fundamentals of operating a business, we can discuss major important components if you're considering a franchise option.

Product. Although there are many companies that generate revenue by offering inferior products to customers, those businesses are not sustainable to grow. The marijuana industry is making a revolution based on the medicinal value of cannabis. Providing safe and organic medicine to patients is a huge responsibility.

It has taken our growers over 10 years to acquire, flower-verify and lab test the genetics provided by The Strainbank. We preserve the best marijuana genetics and have become the world's first "cannabis strainbank".

Marketing. Sometimes a product is so amazing it can market itself, but in the medical marijuana industry patients are diligent about their research online to find reputable, marijuana genetics providers. Donations cover operating expenses and excess revenue redistributed back to members. Donations should not be used for wasteful marketing budgets.

Most collectives stay in business by using as much as half of donations received to pay for advertising. It's unfair to patients their purchase is severely inflated to sponsor paid advertising. - The Strainbank

Business. People start their own "clone business" by gathering local genetics from random growers. Business owners with more common sense buy genetics from reputable breeders or Seedbanks, but do not flower verify the strains to ensure authenticity or measure the growing difficulty of each strain because of the long lead time required to begin selling marijuana plants online.

Breaking into the medical marijuana industry has led countless people to flock and grow marijuana to sell retail to patients or wholesale to dispensaries & mobile delivery services. Cultivating cannabis for sale is very competitive and requires either many years of experience or dedicated training and knowledge of plant nutrition. Due to saturated competition, it is very difficult to establish a new marijuana business without consuming a lot resources and capital.

Offering genetics to patients in the form of mature plants ready to cultivate is a developing niche that removes competition and allows our franchisees to succeed with out any problems. Together we'll grow far!
