A DV E R T O R I A L H ave you ever worked with or been f riends with someone who seems so put together? A person who seems to have attained a balance in life that we all strive to achieve. How does one get to that point? We interviewed Ronnie D f rom Miami Florida. He is one of our most loyal subscription- based customers. We sat down with him to ask him a few candid questions about his daily routine and how our products assist in his process to f ind that equilibrium. 1-DER- Hi Ronnie, thank you for joining us today. Can you tell us a little about your background and what led you to our brand? Ronnie- Thank you for having me. I am a small business owner in Miami Florida. I oversee a team of 15 employees. We are still in the start up phase so you can imagine the demands not only physically, but mentally and spiritually. I’m a young guy, I’m only 27 years old, however we all have our limits. The only way for me to be able to work 12-hour days is to have a routine and have balance. 1-DER- We are relatively new and still going through growing pains as well, so what you’re saying resonates with us. Tell us about what attracted you to our products and how you incorporate them into your routine. Ronnie- It started with some online research about CBD and all positive benef its attributed to the consumption of it. I stumbled across your brand at a Vape expo. Prior to that moment, I had never seen a brand that had been able to create so many different nutritional products that incorporate CBD. A little- known fact about me is that I suffer f rom anxiety. CBD has helped me control it in ways that I can’t even describe. I live an active lifestyle, I’m into weight training, outdoor activities that include biking, and kayaking. When I saw that you guys not only make coffee and sugar with CBD, you make protein powders, BCAAs, vegetable and collagen powders. I was sold. 1-DER- That is awesome! We have so many clients that work as hard as you do and need the proper nutrition and supplements to give them the energy and recovery that our supplements combined with CBD are able to provide. Can you quickly tell us what products you use on a typical work day? Ronnie- I wake up around 6am. I throw on a pot of your 1-DER Colombian Coffee. Once its ready I use your sweetener and coffee creamer which both have CBD in them as well. I then make a protein shake with your Vegan Lemon Cake protein mixed with your Everyday Greens and Collagen powders. That’s my breakfast. I walk my dog, then I head out to work a long productive day. If I’m not able to get out of the off ice to grab an actual meal, I use your meal replacement shakes to hold me over. 59
