The Green Rush link between YouTube & LinkedIn

Meet "Cultivating With The Cannabis Cowboy" in Colorado. Veteran cannabis content creators, please pay attention.

West Side Connection

In this week's edition of NLG, I want to highlight a cannabis content creator. He happens to be a Cowboys fan from Miami who lives in Colorado. Although he's never served in uniform, he has good chemistry with his communities on and off social media regarding cannabis.

Bob and I met on Facebook in 2016, shortly after I created my Cowboys fans-only group. Because of his historical knowledge of America's team, he quickly became an administrator in my group. We didn't meet in person until many years later. Primarily thanks to cannabis.

I wanted to highlight his cultivation skills and how he creates concerts and cannabis content, which he then shares on his YouTube channel. Are you a veteran in a legal cannabis State who wants to start a YouTube channel this year? Here's a blueprint example you can copy and paste to help you begin.

The Green Rush is a global economic event that started in 2012 when Washington and Colorado legalized cannabis. It's funny that he resides in Colorado, and I am in Washington. He is an avid concert type who invited me to the Red Rocks Amphitheater to see Ice Cube for the 420 celebration. We sat close. Check his video skills below.

Copy'N Paste

It took him and me a few years to finally introduce cannabis to our Facebook community. Cannabis is not legal across the country yet. It's complicated for content creators not in legal states. I understand. If you're residing in one creating your YouTube channel, here's your opportunity to enter the chat.

In addition to growing his cannabis, he conducts strain spotlights for his local dispensary,?Good Chemistry,?where he is currently a brand ambassador in Denver. What's your favorite cannabis strain? For me, it's Gary Payton. Take your favorite strain and create a YouTube Short—or long-form video. Just post it.

Share your experience with the product on video. Give your feedback and what you liked or didn't. This is just for starters. You could also create your cannabis podcast and launch it on April 20, 2025. These are just a few examples of how veterans can get started creating their cannabis content today.

Here is his most popular strain spotlight, Granpa's Cookies, on his channel from Good Chemistry. Ironically, the video was not allowed to be embedded like the above concert video. Most importantly, Bob helped me obtain my medical cannabis card in WA State. I started this newsletter by discussing how veterans can cut cannabis taxes in the Evergreen State.

The LinkedIn Approach

Last week, I shared two tools I use to create content: Canva and StreamYard. Combine these two tools with your passion for cannabis and start building your brand on YouTube. You could even use the LinkedIn newsletter approach, as I have.

Either way, creating cannabis content is the key. Get started today. We are already in February, and the clock is ticking. Start that LinkedIn newsletter today. Start that YouTube channel today. Get your proverbial boats in the water. When the tide comes in (Legalization), all boats rise.

Bob is an example. You can copy and paste at no charge. FREE GAME. I'm happy Bob is in my network as a fellow Cowboys fan and lover of cannabis. Any veteran content creator in a legal state can use his example of how to get started today.

Next week, I will lean into my new Cowboys podcast,?"Position Predictions,"?launching February 16th on LinkedIn, YouTube, and Facebook. Demonstration beats conversation in 2025. SUB to my newsletter today; see you next week. Link up with my Cannabis Cowboy on YouTube here.
