Mary Jane, Bangkok now uses full Certificates of Analysis for EVERY cannabis strain it sells

Post author By izzyw
Post date December 12, 2022

Mary Jane has introduced Certificates of Analysis for every cannabis strain sold from its outlet to reassure customers that the weed strains they purchase are the real deal, while also informing customers of the many medicinal benefits cannabis offers.

COAs offer a full scientific Cannanbinoid breakdown of every strain housed at Mary Jane. This means that customers can view the makeup of a particular strain to better understand its THC and CBD content before making a purchase.

While customers at Mary Jane, Bangkok know that the buds they purchase have been produced to the highest industry standards, the pioneering lower Sukhumvit weed shop wants to go further than word-of-mouth recommendations to guarantee the quality of its produce. Introducing COAs offers customers a guarantee that the weed they purchase is genuine and meets the high standards they expect from Mary Jane.

The increase in cannabis availability across Bangkok has left many consumers questioning the authenticity of the products they see sold on street corners in the city. Consumers seeking genuine high-grade produce have every right to be cautious when they see renowned weed strains sold at suspiciously low prices. This is because some of the home growers taking advantage of Thailand’s relaxed cannabis laws don’t always possess the specialist knowledge required to produce a high-grade flower.

Growing weed is an exact science and with many home growers cutting corners, the only way to be sure you are purchasing premium products is to ask to see a Certificate of Analysis, which should accompany each cannabis strain on sale. Without this guarantee, consumers are taking a gamble in purchasing homegrown weed where quality can not be guaranteed.

Ben Baskins, a co-founder of OG Canna company, commenting on the Certificates of Analysis that cover the entire range of cannabis strains sold from Mary Jane’s premises, said:

“The COAs displayed at Mary Jane both reassure our customers that the products they are purchasing are the real deal but they also help inform customers seeking relief from a variety of ailments, that the make-up of the cannabis product they purchase is suitable for their needs. As an authentic and fully licenced outlet, we’re proud to offer COAs to guarantee the weed products we sell are of the highest standard available anywhere in Thailand.”

Located on the corner of Soi 4 and Sukhumvit Road and adjacent to the Majestic Hotel, Mary Jane supplies residents and visitors to the Nana district of the city with a variety of TTMs including the highest-grade marijuana from the only best strains available in Thailand.

Mary Jane is part of the OG Canna Company and works with a select group of the most knowledgeable and passionate growers and suppliers of marijuana in the country, and their combined expertise look set to make Mary Jane the best and most reliable dispensary in the area for all your medical needs.

Incredible new strains available at Mary Jane Bangkok

Post author By izzyw
Post date December 12, 2022

Mary Jane, Bangkok sources only the highest-grade cannabis strains for those seeking a natural alternative to big pharma-prescribed pills in Thailand. Here we take a look at a couple of incredible new strains which have been getting quite of bit of attention among cannabis aficionados.

Stepping inside the Mary Jane store, trained budtenders are on hand to listen to and understand each individual’s health concerns before recommending strains of weed to remedy a host of ailments. Cannabis has been consumed by people for hundreds of years however, the outlawing of this naturally-growing plant has been a barrier to patients seeking an alternative to global pharmaceuticals. Fortunately for tourists, the Thai government has had the foresight to scrap the draconian laws that saw innocent individuals penalized for consuming naturally grown traditional medicine. Here weed experts review two of the more popular strains now available legally at Mary Jane, Cannabis shop Bangkok, Gorilla Glue and Pink Runtz:

Gorilla Glue No.4, GG4 or Original Glue:

With a THC content of 15.62% and 0% CBD, this Indica-dominant hybrid is one of the more popular strains stocked at Mary Jane Bangkok and a favorite of seasoned patients. Created in Nevada USA, its characteristics are quite unlike any other marijuana strain. A pungent earthy mix of 3 mother strains – namely Chem’s Sister, Sour Dubb, and Chocolate Diesel – Gorilla Glue No.4 is so-called for its ability to glue the user to the couch with its strong relaxing properties and for the sticky resin buds this plant produces. GG4 carries a full-bodied flavor with notes of pinewood, coffee, and chocolate it is both earthy and sweet. This a much sought-after award-winning marijuana strain and is a great stress reliever and is the bud of choice for patients suffering from anxiety, stress, depression, ADHD, and insomnia, despite containing zero CBD. It is also good for pain relief however misuse can give users a dry mouth and eyes. Although giving users a sense of euphoria when ingested GG4 can help alleviate low mood, this is not a medicine for the morning nor for giving you the energy to party all night long. Providing a typical Indica body high it is best consumed in the evening or when you’ve nothing better to do with your day. This has been a popular strain for users living through Bangkok’s extreme rainy season of 2022, leaving patients without a care in the world. Whilst GG4 is a thoroughly relaxing strain, it offers users super-focused creativity meaning it’s perfect for watching a movie, playing a musical instrument or reading and writing. If you want to know the correct dosage for your symptoms, our trained budtenders are here to give you all the advice you need to remedy your situation.

Pink Runtz:

Containing an average of 20% THC and very low CBD content, Pink Runtz is an equally balanced Indica-Sativa hybrid strain of marijuana available to patients at Mary Jane Bangkok however, for consumers it is the heady Sativa effects that come to the fore with this naturally grown flower, energizing users and lifting moods promoting long-lasting euphoric happiness that is perfect for social gatherings. Related to the original Runtz strain, it is a hybrid of Zkittels and Gelato and offers a sweet and fruity yet mild and discreet aroma with flavors of strawberry and citrus fruit. So-called due to its pinkish-purple buds Pink Runtz is the ultimate mood enhancer. Due to its uplifting effects, Pink Runtz leaves patients awake yet relaxed, happy, talkative, and often giggly, reminding more regular users of their first experience with cannabis. This heady strain is particularly popular with patients who suffer from bouts of PTSD: anxiety, stress, and depression due to its mood-enhancing properties. It is a perfect alternative medicine for fatigued executives and overthinkers who need to switch off from the bombardment of the daily grind, especially for those individuals who mentally take their work home with them. Pink Runtz helps you relax and lose focus while experiencing a wash of happiness meaning it can be used as an excellent chronic pain reliever. It also enhances appetite. But be warned, consuming too much can leave patients feeling dizzy and with a headache. Due to Pink Runtz’s ability to uplift and awaken the mind and body, this alternative medicine is not one to be ingested before bedtime, although for patients who don’t have trouble sleeping this strain can enhance dreams by prolonging the REM stage of your sleep pattern. So whether you want to eliminate stress and negative thoughts or kill pain Pink Runtz could be the strain for you. This California hybrid has been difficult to find outside of the USA until now. And thanks to Thailand’s forward-thinking practices permitting the use of alternative medicines, Mary Jane Bangkok can now offer this strain in Thailand for the very first time.

What Every Business Needs to Know About the Difference Between Marketing and Public Relations

Post author By CMPMediaCafe
Post date December 8, 2022

Small business owners often have a difficult time on how to understand the difference between marketing and public relations because it can be complicated and the lines between the two can be blurred. In fact, with the explosion of digital marketing in the past several years, many entrepreneurs understand the value of a sales funnel over a website since it gives them a way to not only introduce a new product or service to them, but also capture information and sales to see a direct return on investment (or ROI).

Marianne Schwab is a former national network TV talk show producer who now works with entrepreneurs and small businesses to get them broadcast interviews to help them promote their business and says, “Understanding the difference between marketing and public relations will help you learn how they best work together to make a massive impact with your campaigns. In a nutshell, marketing creates demand for a product or a service through advertising, while public relations builds trust with the general public through media interviews and features in TV and radio broadcasts, podcasts, and online and print publications. In other words, advertising is saying that your business or product is good, but public relations is getting someone else to say it for you. That is how to build credibility for a product and authority for a company spokesperson or executive. In fact, no amount of advertising can give you the credibility that being featured as an expert in your industry on a newscast or lifestyle program can.”

One of the primary traffic sources for businesses online and offline these days is social media advertising on platforms like Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and more. This marketing method can be very effective for brand awareness and generating sales for small businesses. However, at the end of the day although it’s a great way to get a product or company on the radar of potential clients and customers, it doesn’t necessarily build credibility.

According to Marianne Schwab, “One of the biggest mistakes I’ve seen my clients make over the years, especially my Fortune 500 clients, is they do not synergize their public relations and marketing campaigns. They invest a boatload of their budget into the P.R. Department and Marketing Department and they don’t talk to each other and actually act like they work on completely different planets. That is losing the opportunity for a ton of potential and additional revenue.”

Marketing is all about the return on investment (ROI). For example, depending on the ad sales team experience, a company can strategically invest $3,500 in social advertising and expect to double that amount with incoming revenue. Public relations contributes to the ROI by building credibility in a way advertising cannot.

“The best campaigns I’ve seen are the ones where P.R. and Marketing work together,” Schwab continues. “For example, a publicist books an interview for a local or national talk show and the marketing team then buys ad spots for the same show so that the brand, product and message is optimized from the featured interview. The audience doesn’t just hear about the product in the interview for credibility, but then the ads during commercial breaks make the essential imprint in their minds that lead to sales.”

There is no magic number that guarantees a sales since the primary factor is does the product solve a problem the client wants or needs. In general, it takes a minimum of seven impressions before a prospect will buy. Now, thanks to the internet, the number of touch points needed before a sale in 2020 was eleven and have since increased exponentially according to Forrester Research.

Marianne Schwab has worked as a producer for over 25 years in New York and Los Angeles. She is currently the Executive Producer of CMP Media Cafe where she works with clients to develop compelling media hooks and story angles that get them TV and radio interviews in today’s complicated media environment. She has created an online training that shares her insider secrets to promoting a business on TV talk shows and details the types of guests producers love to book as guests.

Tristan M. Stahl releases the “Harmony With God” Course For Christians Wanting To Live In Harmony With God & Thrive In All Areas Of Life

Post author By modernprofits
Post date November 23, 2022

Orlando Florida – February 8, 2023 – There is a new opportunity from Tristan M. Stahl of ValorMen for Christians who are seeking to live in the peace of God in all areas of their life. Christians are experiencing peace in the midst of financial, health, and family stress. The Harmony With God course and counsel program with Tristan brings peace and harmony in Christian’s relationships with God, family, romantic partners, money, and themselves.

How was Tristan able to create something that brought such incredible transformation and healing in these Christian’s lives?

Tristan grew up Methodist and has been to many denominations over decades in his exploration of the truth. He found himself following the Bible to a tee, yet he still experienced fear of hell, a lack of trust in God, and a negative view of everything and everyone in the world. So much to the point that he started to reject his own friends and family.

He came to the realization that he had to be understanding and believing things wrong. He never experienced the love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, and self-control that was to be a “fruit of his obedience.”

This led Tristan down a path of deep contemplation, and God started to bring Tristan to the truth portrayed in Christ as it was intended. Tristan learned that everything he was taught and knew was actually wrong.

Tristan has now been on a journey of studying the original translation of scripture, contextual meanings, and truths behind the words of Jesus, and helping others recover from the legalism he himself recovered from.

5 years later, after thousands of hours of research and embodiment of heart-centered perspectives from men like Jesus, Martin Luther King Jr, Gandhi, and more, the ValorMen organization was born.

All of his life experience has been strategically placed into what is now known as the “Harmony With God course and personalized counsel program.”

Christians who would like to learn more about the course and program can schedule an overview with Tristan by going to:
