ACS Laboratory and Automatic Slims Metaverse Marketplace Release a Cannabis-Branded NFT at MJBizCon

By November 11, 2022December 13th, 2022No Comments

ACS Laboratory, the largest hemp and cannabis testing facility in the eastern U.S. and the first laboratory in the metaverse, is pleased to announce its “Automatic Slims Limonene Stand,” with a live NFT drop with Pure Blanco, at MJBizCon’s three-day mega-conference at the Las Vegas Convention Center. This metaverse-powered activation marks the first physical-to-virtual event with Decentraland’s Automatic Slims Metaverse Marketplace.

The “Automatic Slims Limonene Stand” is a real-world pop-up of a terpene-inspired take on the classic lemonade version, which will stand in neon lights at ACS Laboratory’s booth, #7046.  Attendees can walk up to the Limonene Stand touchscreen, virtually tour Automatic Slims Cannabis Market Place and purchase NFTs from Pure Blanco, a nationally featured cannabis brand. Pure Blanco is launching its new Delta-9 hemp gummy blends and will be releasing an exclusive NFT that unlocks a bag of gummies to the buyer.

ACS Laboratory and Automatic Slims will drop this collection live during the conference, giving attendees a chance to explore unique offerings throughout the week. Digital wallets will be required to transfer the NFT ownership to the purchaser and those wallets will be free for those buyers that do not currently own one.

Last month ACS Laboratory, in partnership with Blockticity, launched the Automatic Slims Cannabis Metaverse Marketplace featuring four floors of dynamic experiences merging retail, education and entertainment.

Over 500 visitors (in avatar form) explored the space, participated in quests for prizes, listened to DJ DMS spinning live, and received hemp and cannabis NFTs for physical redemptions. By the end of the event, Automatic Slims transferred 2,100 NFTs to attendees. Additionally, cannabis manufacturer, The Galley, launched its first NFT with a legal cannabis prize redemption transacted through Metrc – a cannabis regulatory system.

“ACS Laboratory’s co-branded Automatic Slims’ Limonene Stand is the next activation in a series of events symbolizing a new era for the cannabis industry,” said Roger Brown, President of ACS Laboratory. “We’re thrilled to be at the forefront of compliant metaverse sales and look forward to partnering with brands to expand their digital reach.”

Visit the Automatic Slims Limonene Popup Stand at ACS Laboratory’s MJBizCon Booth #7046, located in the South Hall Upper Level of the Las Vegas Convention Center. The show takes place from November 15 to 18.

Five Things That Need to be in Your Resume or Cover Letter

To paraphrase Jerry Maguire, help us help you. As we sift through the paperwork, here’s what we are looking for:

1. What you love to do and why.

In PR, you may love writing, editing, interviewing, pitching the media, researching, coordinating events, networking, posting to social media … whew! While we would love it if you had a passion for it all, we’d never believe you if you said as much.

What part of this zany, crazy, whirlwind, yet meticulous, tedious, detail-oriented, profession calls to you and why? Help us make the connection as to how PR is really for you, and call it your Professional Summary.

2. Something you did that changed something or someone else.

If you never showed up to your last job, what wouldn’t have happened? That’s right. Erase yourself. Now which clients disappeared with you? Which articles just fade away? What press releases cease to exist? How much social media did NOT get liked?

We are just meeting you. So take a moment to spell out your impact, and it will be easier for us to see what you can do for the clients of Durée & Company. Share this under your Job Responsibilities.

3. Anything you created.

Feeling humble? Well, stop it. This is the part where you brag. If you craft a delightful blog, master a mind-blowing website, shoot crazy video or direct wonderful events, show us.

Then tell us a bit of how you did it, so we trust that it was your brilliance and not the intern’s. Let’s dub this Your Portfolio.

4. An indication of why you belong here.

At PR firm Durée & Company, we have a culture. Really, all companies do. To learn about ours, do some legwork. At this point, if you’re on our blog, you are in the right spot to begin learning. Hate pink? Not good with women? Live in Kansas? Low energy? Then you might want to reconsider applying. However, if we resemble a group that you’d like to hang out with, share why. You can do that in the Cover Letter.

5. Correctly spelled words – all of them.

Do more than hit spell check. Know how to spell or ask someone to proofread. Correctly spelled words work everywhere, all the time. Consider them the Little Black Dresses of resumes.

So consider these five tips – we’ve just given you a “cheat sheet” about what we’re watching out for. Even if our position may not be for you, feel free to use our advice for another – it may just get you the job!
