Marcus Johnson-Smith

Boston, MA

Co-Owner & CMO @ The Kush Groove Shop, KushGroove.com and The KG Collective.

Looking to scale your business or personal brand?

I launched and grew a small cannabis accessories and merchandise brand called Kush Groove from from a basement operation to two fully operational retail stores, and a franchise agreement to launch a third retail store in Fall of 2020.

I also launched a cannabis retail dispensary company, The KG Collective, set to open two dispensaries in Fall of 2020, in the state of Massachusetts.

I am a digital media marketing professional with an extensive background of building retail businesses in niche industries. I also have a background in government relationships as it relates to cannabis business policy and industry.

I place a strong focus in 10X growth and strategic partnerships.

Feel free to send me a message regarding your goals and I'll let you know if I can help.

Peace.
