Tia (AskGrowers) : So, how did your business start? What inspired you to open Happy Hemp?
Nik Shipley (Co-Founder HHF) : We really wanted to start this company to provide the best quality product for the most reasonable price to our community.
Tia : If you weren’t making hemp wellness products, what would you be doing instead?
Nik Shipley : I can’t honestly see a life without being in this industry.
Tia : What was Happy Hemp’s first product? How was it received?
Nik Shipley : Broad-spectrum tinctures.
Tia : Which of Happy Hemp’s items is your personal favourite? Why?
Nik Shipley : My favorite is the 1000mg full-spectrum tincture.
Tia : Does Happy Hemp have any plans to roll out new products in the new future? If so, what are they?
Nik Shipley : Wouldn’t you like to know ;)
Tia : What’s your attitude towards THC and THC products?
Nik Shipley : We love and embrace the inevitable legalization.
Tia : What’s your current bestseller?
Nik Shipley : 1500 mg full-spectrum tincture.
Tia : Has Happy Hemp run into any hurdles in growing as a business? What have they been and how have you overcome them?
Nik Shipley : Many many hurdles. Too many to list honestly, but the biggest one probably would be the pandemic. We’ve not yet overcome it but with a little support from our loving community, I’m sure we will soon.
Tia : How has COVID-19 impacted your business?
Nik Shipley : It hurt. Badly. We missed over 70 events this summer because they were all cancelled.
Tia : Imagine that I’m your new client. What are the top 3 things you’d recommend me from your website?
Nik Shipley : I would recommend trying our quality control page and holding our products to the grindstone to certify we are legit. The second thing would be our “contact us” button. We love feedback - good, bad, ugly - we love to hear from you.
And lastly, I’d recommend the “share” button. We need as much help as we can get from a grassroots level.
Tia : What other hemp brands do you follow or look to emulate in your business?
Nik Shipley : None. We don’t want to follow in the footsteps or shadow of any other business, as we aim to be the trendsetter. Especially if that trend is quality.
