Did you know that hemp is really good for you? It’s true! Generally speaking, hemp foods offer more protein and a broader spectrum of omegas than flax, chia, or peas. What if there was a way to unlock all of this wonderful product potential and release it to the marketplace? Good news - Ari Sherman and his team over at Evo Hemp are on it! They are working tirelessly to help bring delicious hemp-based products to consumers.

What challenges are inherent to your industry? Do you work in an industry that deals with a lot of high-risk situations? What about public perception? What would you do if you started with a product that already had a negative association in the public conscious? Most business leaders would throw in the towel before they even get started! Ari Sherman didn’t shrink away from the challenge of producing and selling hemp products - he took it on. What seemed like an uphill battle to change public perception about hemp products has seemed to turn a corner lately - hemp is popular! What can you learn from Ari’s story?
