When you're unemployed but suddenly excitedly searching bulk distributors because you had an awesome business idea for...

Sweet, whatever. It'll suck for me, but all the better to do this project and have her give me an ounce of free medical. I'm not looking to become a dispensary promoter/solution-finder as a career. I'm throwing away what I would have spent on some stupid car-tow bullshit or whatever so I can hopefully do something fun.

Even if she doesn't give a shit and tells me to fuck off (very unlikely), she'll probably be a little generous with the grams that day because I put in the effort and she likes my girlfriend and me.

Dude, all the worst case scenarios end up with me getting free weed. This'll take, like, a month to play out.

And don't get me wrong, I don't really trust Trump on weed. I trust that his team of advisers see it would be an absolutely genius move that would knock the dentures out of the DNC. Flawless victory, country fucking loves it. Someone on his team sees that.

And if it doesn't, I'm getting at least half an ounce of some pretty good shit (we can talk details if you guys wanna be snobs). Trump can shut down the whole system, I just need a little time and I'm prepped for prohibition for quite a while. He doesn't give me time? I'm out money I would have spent on, I dunno, some stupid electronic bullshit I don't even use? Maybe some extra furniture and a gift for someone? Dunno why you're stepping on me, this is the equivalent of building trains in my basement.

I think you're doing a fine thing with helping a friend with business.

and all that will happen if the DNC gets knocked out is conservatives will switch sides again, or a new split will come up on different ideological lines. The GOP can't keep doing what it's doing, it's losing presidential elections regularly. They still have the electoral college but that's one solid loss away from being gone. The writing's on the wall for them. Weed, hipsters and Hispanics are our future. They'll get on board when they have to.

I'm not holding my breath, but I'm saying if Republicans did try to attract weed voters it would probably work and it sure as hell wouldn't be the craziest thing to happen in the past twelve months. I'm actually kind of nervous, but even if it doesn't work out I've found a fun hobby I can apply to different small businesses. I even knew a guy who used to do this kind of thing, maybe he'll have pointers.

Holy shit, that place's stuff is so good it made me develop a business plan. Like, I have so much research and a full speech of how I'd present it. I fixed some errors in my earlier estimates, but we could easily do $3000 if we had brisk sales with a new item. That includes doing a lot of giveaways or being used to up the ante to a larger dollar amount. We'll probably give away a lot of merch, that's what I'm looking at $1500 to $2500 profit unless they end up being pretty popular. If they're as popular as it would be as, say, selling bagels in the shop (holy shit they should do that I need a fucking hot bagel!, still, not a pretzel level good, then that level of sales would be $3000. If they're like a huge fucking hit for some reason (people love the packaging or the product for some of a few potential reasons), we could go over $4000. If we hit five thousand watch out, we have a murderous plant involved.

buddy, weed shop owners dabble in millions of dollars worth of sales. Tons of businesses do. Making an extra $4k- while not terrible- isn't that big a deal.

like you finding a penny on the street, you might bend down and pick it up if it's not a bother, but you sure aren't going to write up a business plan and pitch it to people about HOW you're going to pick up the penny.

I love your enthusiasm though.

Also man, combine a head rush from vaping an ecigarette with nicotine with the body high from a good indica? Every head hit I get on my vape (I'm a fag, I know, I don't do it in public and only my girlfriend knows) when I do this indica makes me feel like I'm having a seizure, but in a pleasant way.

Oh god I hope this won't kill my brain. This is cool, right? Also, general biz/weed thread? or whatever you want to do with this. Insult my grammar, go for it. I'mma stick around until I finish making my dessert.

This is about as small an operation as a weed shop can be. It is a hole in the wall that exists because of a loophole. It's not quite sketchy but it's customers have to be kind of hip.

The sales are only for first 200 units, so if it goes well we can scale up on these pieces. The margins seem great but all things considered it's just on the edge of fair (this place is pretty overpriced, they outright ask you if you want to pay more because they give out a gram every $10).

The real value is word of mouth. This product is genuinely cool. We're gonna give out doubles in hopes people will share with a friend or at least brag to a friend about. This is a neat little thing and will be great word of mouth. If we do lots of business hell yeah we'll buy a fuckton of these items, it'll be even cheaper. These margins are going to be fucking sick and it's going to be an awesome advertisement for the place. The packaging options I have will blow your fucking mind. I am just starting to understand how much you can do with packaging. This tool is going to get you to bring a friend to the shop (by the way, if you bring a friend to the shop you get a free hand-rolled, they get cigarette holder but for joints, plus a free hand rolled, plus I mean c'mon some free weed with the grinder or bong or dabberer they bought. Place is a fucking golden opportunity. They need crazy margins to stay in business, this fits that perfectly. And it means more people learn about a neat tool.

I mean it's in the very professionally finished basement of a small two story house, in an area that used to be residential. Cheap convert. On top of them? A sketchy business, imagine a liquor store or a pawn shop. Something a little gross. Like I know $4K isn't a lot, but dude: it's an independent side mission that I basically do myself. I get all the stuff, I'll make my girlfriend and and me package it while we watch King of the Hill, the store owner just has to set a price and put it on her shelves. She's in need of cool shelf content and she's about to redo her entire inventory, so this is a perfect little thing.

This is more of a small head shop, not a weed shop. They are a head shop that gives you weed, but it is primarily a head shop and is 95% dedicated to maintaining the image that it is primarily a head shop. And it is tiny. It's people-sized, but it's the type of nook a gnome would design. Very much in a weird half-basement, smallish alchemy shop. I could fucking gush, that's why I'm so enthusiastic. I love this place.

I ingratiate myself with the operator of a business that makes it's primary trade handing out free weed. I don't care if it's small potatoes, the money comes at no effort or cost to her and I get my investment back (no profits!) and she almost certainly gives me half an ounce for my effort. Half an ounce and the satisfaction of a tiny business idea succeeding? That's like nailing Jaguar.

Also now there's some fucking web extension that makes it so you can't right click and save image files on a search? Fuck this future.

Anyway man, this whole thing feels so legit. It's like getting published in a magazine. She uses my business idea in an underground week speakeasy and maybe people like my idea? That'd be such a confidence boost. That would be my streetcred. Right now my streetcred is successful shitposting on rapgenius. Seems good to me.

But I just made Chex and honey with yogurt in milk, so peace.

Have a good night, Kelly
