Forgot to mention we are looking to possibly do explosion proof rooms for when it does happen here in Cali or other states. I like giddyup but his crew doing those rooms is charging a lot more than needs to be. Feel free to drop me a line... your expertise might be appreciated and doing all this has provided some amazing networking experiences.

Welcome to the world of 100 hr work weeks and being on a constant learning curve. Sleep becomes a nuisance. You'll get enough rest when you're dead.

Green Dot Labs in CO does butane and visited by local fire marshal and stuff so happening in other states. No?

Will drop you a line.

The mobile version of your website bites. Internet traffic moving to mobile. I'll try Wastebook.
 
@cali... I'll have to check it out once my phone gets fixed. It is a work in progress for sure :/

@careful... It still should look decent, but what ends up happening is that you get so busy you don't really look at your own website other than telling your guy to do this or that. I'll have to make sure I do use it... especially when we allow purchasing through it.

People do need to remember that what we do is mostly illegal so you can't exactly expect the same kind of website you are use to using elsewhere.

I disagree. When spending several thousand on a system, the research isn't usually done on a phone.
Right now I'm on a phone and the site is non functional IMO/IME. The site is broken. I was on the site on my desktop a few days ago checking things out. I work on stuff while on the crapper some times. So much to do and so little time.

@RB...you're phone is broken and you're trying to run a business? Sent you a Wastebook message and you should have gotten that an hour or so ago on your phone.

You're advertising that most of what you do is illegal? Green Dot and Organa Labs are kicking butt.
 
@Gabe... what exactly do you want our website to do for you while you are on the crapper? you aren't buying a robinaire off amazon... the transaction is quite a bit more complex.

My phone got dropped, the shop took it apart, realized the screen they had wasn't compatible and would take some modifications, etc. Most everyone just uses their cell phone these days. Anyway, enough on this topic.

Gabe, it is clear you do not understand this industry with your last statement.

goodnight all

Don't let the idiots get to you. I'll be placing an order within the next 30 days. Thanks for the quick responses.
 
To any of you guys out there that need web help (RB and WW, talking to you). I've been producing professional web sites for a long time. I was the senior interactive producer for 5 years for a major auto manufacturer. I have sold 3 of my own websites and now have a very small shop (2 people) and currently making sites other cannabis clients. I'm very reasonable, reliable, smart and willing to barter. I think I can help in your success.

Will be ordering a 5lb very soon! Cant wait, but every time i have the next week you make your machine better! Im glad i had medical problems in feb and didn't purchase back then!
 
@yougrow... where were you a couple weeks ago??? :)

A6... I think it'll be the away it is for a while other than possible minor tweaks. I need to really work on our website, infrastructure, figure out ways to quickly pressure test welded pieces, etc

Gabe, it is clear you do not understand this industry with your last statement.
I should know better than to drink and type after too much suds. I apologize.

You're right I don't know the concentrate aspect of the biz at all. Helping a friend with a possible CO2 project in NorCal and figuring a few things out. Pretty much what I remembered long ago regarding Cali and butane. I know Terra Tech is setting up a CO2 facility in Oakland and has contracted with Eden for a custom system.

I like what Green Dot and Organa are doing for various reasons.

I'm talking to a friend's son who owns a dispensary in CO and looking at setting up a butane system to service his area cause there's nothing around. He already has a partner in Cali who will bring out his closed loop system. I don't know what he has. Next time I talk to him will recommend your company if he needs any more gear. I was talking to him about running the extraction facility yet that opportunity low on my priority list.

Agree CO is blowin up yet Cali is my home and would rather stay here. Looking at a few opportunities here. The gig I mentioned is hourly only to start with a possibility of some ownership. A close friend of mine in CO knew of a dispensary that was for sale not too long ago cheap and didn't tell me cause he hates dispensaries...D'Oh! That place is rocking it as they turned things around and also got a bit lucky. Now I may work for that dispensary lol.

There's aspects I like about butane extract and some I don't...mainly any residues. I know there's definitely a market for CO2 concentrates yet butane rules the market and know of some places that only accept butane extracts and in some dispensaries CO2 extracts don't sit on the shelf long.

Not here to bash you rb just wanted to say, that a crappy one page "html 1.0" site that has your actual products in a list with prices would be better for you than a really slick looking site like what you have, that does not have any products/prices in the shop. *shrugs*

Read the whole thread and understand your situation, just voicing an opinion!

I understand that is your opinion and there's no problem with voicing it, but if you read the whole thread you should know that prices are around the corner, and products are already listed.. Why settle for a sub par website? It's 2014.

Appearance plays a great deal in how well your products will sell. If I were in the market for an extractor and came across his site only to find a bare layout with subpar web design I would likely be less interested.
