Notable Quotes

-       "I got on TikTok. And the first video I made was just me ranting to the camera and being like, this is why no one is ever going to approve hemp extracts and blah, blah, blah. And that video did a million views, basically in two days. And that was when everything changed for the company." - [Jake Crossman]

-       "But what I have found now, being a year into it, is that as long as I am consistent, as long as I make the content that people want to see, from me. And as long as I don't get in my head about, oh, this video didn't do well, I'm not going to make a video today, or blah, blah, blah, everything ends up being fine in the long term." - [Jake Crossman]

-       "The email list and the Facebook Group have been just really big drivers of, like I said, that reciprocity of just giving out free information and hoping to have some people come back for sales."- [Jake Crossman]

-      " A lot of people only see the success. They say, oh, Jake's, an overnight success. It's like, no, there was a lot of getting here... And all the sleepless nights and being late on the rent or whatever. Everyone has those experiences." - [Jonathan Green]

-       "It's one of the few platforms where you have a chance of your message getting out there." - [Jonathan Green]
