This last year in Oklahoma has been really eye-opening. My experience with cannabis business people has been either seasoned growers and heads that love weed and the outlaw lifestyle or pink shirt executives that got a whiff of the green greed and want in. Oklahoma has been vastly different.
Many of the cannabis business owners here are normal folks. Maybe they smoke weed, maybe they don’t. Oil money is present for sure, but the majority of people I have encountered got a license because the level of entry was low (cannabis licenses are only $2500), there were very few hoops to jump through, and they saw a unique opportunity and ran with it. There is also some of that outlaw, don’t tell me what to do attitude, that has made Oklahoma a great place to be in the cannabis industry.
I first met Ellie McDaniel of Smokey Okie’s when I visited her grow facility to see if I wanted to give an invitation for an interview. Right away I liked her. She impressed me with her enthusiasm to jump head first into a business she had never engaged in before. Growing good ganja isn’t as easy as people think and with only a year’s knowledge of growing cannabis, she has positioned herself as one of the leading cannabis wholesalers in Oklahoma.
