When Jesse Purvis of Kief Cake wants to explain his approach to the world, he uses an example from the days he spent working in the kitchens on the Canadian Forces base in Kingston. 카지노 게임 컬렉션I used to wash and peel potatoes,카지노 게임 컬렉션 he says. 카지노 게임 컬렉션Anybody thinks of the army that카지노 게임 컬렉션s what they think of, guys peeling potatoes.카지노 게임 컬렉션 Every day he카지노 게임 컬렉션d be one of four guys just sitting and peeling to feed a thousand people.
But as he puts it, 카지노 게임 컬렉션I카지노 게임 컬렉션m an idea guy. I카지노 게임 컬렉션m always trying to find a way to make things easier.카지노 게임 컬렉션
In the case of the potatoes, one day he came into work with two power drills he sourced from somewhere on the base, and to which he카지노 게임 컬렉션d attached scrub brushes. 카지노 게임 컬렉션I said, 카지노 게임 컬렉션Watch this, guys.카지노 게임 컬렉션카지노 게임 컬렉션 He jammed his two drills into a tub filled with potatoes, pulled the triggers and in a manner of moments had peeled and cleaned more potatoes than the four of them could have done in an afternoon. 카지노 게임 컬렉션And my boss was like, 카지노 게임 컬렉션We카지노 게임 컬렉션re doing things a little differently from now on.카지노 게임 컬렉션

It was through his involvement in the legal cannabis industry that he had the brainstorm that led him to Wings 카지노 게임 컬렉션 and may just ultimately make life a lot easier for a lot of people out there.
카지노 게임 컬렉션Cannabis is a very sticky product,카지노 게임 컬렉션 he says. Try to pick it up, and you카지노 게임 컬렉션ll cover your hands in fine, resinous powder. What Purvis has developed is a scoop with a detachable end. You use the scoop to gather it up, and then, pulling off the end, you can pour it into a pre-formed cone of paper or a pipe -- 카지노 게임 컬렉션Transition your cannabis to your preferred smoking device,카지노 게임 컬렉션 as Purvis puts it.
Purvis had originally contacted Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s Partnerships and Innovation (QPI) about another idea (the Kief Cake cited in his company카지노 게임 컬렉션s name) but had realized that he simply did not have the finances to carry this forward at the time. But being an idea guy, he did have another one too. So, he talked to QPI카지노 게임 컬렉션s Stephen Scribner about his plans for a cannabis scoop.
Scribner provided advice about the patenting process, and before long was drafting a patent application for the scoop, which Purvis had named the BNC loader. A U.S. provisional patent application was filed recently.
From there, it was Elza Seregelyi and Rick Boswell who recommended the Wings program to him.
카지노 게임 컬렉션I카지노 게임 컬렉션m not a business guy, I카지노 게임 컬렉션m an idea guy. I needed to learn more about business,카지노 게임 컬렉션 he says.
The experience? In a word: 카지노 게임 컬렉션Awesome. Rick was awesome, the two Mikes [Mike Wells and Mike Lazinski] were awesome. Elsa was there for anything I needed. Any question I had during the week, I카지노 게임 컬렉션d just send it off and she카지노 게임 컬렉션d get right back to me.카지노 게임 컬렉션 He hasn카지노 게임 컬렉션t taken advantage of any other QPI programs as of yet but expects to. 카지노 게임 컬렉션I카지노 게임 컬렉션ll be keeping in close touch with Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s,카지노 게임 컬렉션 he says. 카지노 게임 컬렉션They helped me so much.카지노 게임 컬렉션
For Purvis, one big takeaway from Wings was realizing what his actual market was. 카지노 게임 컬렉션I was thinking I was more like business to customer, but I learned through Wings I카지노 게임 컬렉션m more business to business. I have a small product. I can sell them singly but that카지노 게임 컬렉션s not really going to pull in the revenue. I need to get it to as many distributors as possible.카지노 게임 컬렉션
Since completing Wings, Purvis has kept busy. Another one of his business endeavours is 3-D printing (he has three machines), and when it comes to his cannabis scoops, he can turn out 카지노 게임 컬렉션up to 950 a day.카지노 게임 컬렉션 He카지노 게임 컬렉션s developed a logo and sourced packaging and is ready to launch the BNC Loader. Before too long, they may be in cannabis stores everywhere.
카지노 게임 컬렉션My plan is to have them up front on the counter,카지노 게임 컬렉션 he says. 카지노 게임 컬렉션The way you see lighters now. I카지노 게임 컬렉션ll have them all up there in different colours."
