CBD-Infused Edibles - Feel Good Edibles
Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Stephen Terrano, Co-Founder of Feel Good Edibles, located in Brooklyn, NY, USA.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
We are in the business of providing everyone with a quality standard for cannabis-infused edibles. There is much variance when it comes to edibles; we want to make it simple. Accurate per piece dosing, delicious flavor, healthy ingredients.
Tell us about yourself
My birthday is 4-20; my mother had MS and used CBD Edibles every day. Seemed like a calling. In 2016 New York stores didn't carry CBD edibles. Since we owned a distributor business, we started selling other brands in stores right away, only to find out that most don't test accurately. Mom passed in 2018; in 2019, NYC banned CBD edibles and sunk the company. I kept pushing, built a small team of contractors, sold out a few times, and we're still at it.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
Staying in business through New York's legal ups and downs to now be one of the first NY licensed, tax-paying Cannabis brands.
What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?
A start-up business takes all your energy, time, and money. There is much personal sacrifice.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Expect everything to take longer and cost more than planned.
- Build a team right away
- Don't give up!
