California Entrepreneur Launches HERBPON and HERBY, the E-Commerce Marketplace and Uncensored Social Network App for the Cannabis Community
June 6, 2022 MJ Shareholders
The Herbpon app is a unique, industry-disrupting, discount-based cannabis marketplace and an uncensored social media platform. The game-changing platform connects cannabis consumers with brands and retailers. Herbpon provides consumers with discounts of up to 70% and introduces them to new products and services that enhance the cannabis lifestyle. This app benefits cannabis brands, dispensaries, and delivery services by promoting new sales and maximizing customer retention by connecting subscribers with local merchants. Herbpon also encourages discounted cannabis offers to consumers, similar to Groupon but with many more interactive, customized features. Non-cannabis-based businesses can also leverage exposure to the lucrative, rapidly expanding cannabis market. Herbpon also features promotions for various non-cannabis business sectors, such as travel, restaurants, events, and education. The turnkey platform makes it easy for companies to consistently and effectively engage through an uncensored social media environment that typically has content restrictions around cannabis subject matter.
Travis Stocking, the 30-year-old founder of Herbpon and Herby, said, “Herbpon customers can find deep discounts on products and services, including daily deals from local dispensaries, CBD products, high-quality glassware, rolling papers, grinders, doctors’ recommendations, and travel deals around Cannabis Getaways.” He elaborated, “HERBY, our social media community, is a simple and fun platform that allows users to communicate freely and engage with friends in an uninhibited social community that embraces the cannabis lifestyle. Herby is a dedicated advocate for free speech, education, and truth for everything cannabis.” Travis Stocking is a premier thought leader, visionary entrepreneur, and frequent guest speaker in the cannabis industry. Travis is quickly becoming known as “Your Favorite CEO” and “The King of the Cannaverse.”
James Marteniz, CTO and head of the technical development of Herbpon, added, “Our customers get so excited because everything they can think of is on the site at prices dramatically lower than what you can find anywhere else—the deals are always stellar. It’s a win for our merchant partners as well. We partner directly with various merchants, dispensaries, retail stores, and recreational cannabis shops, offering them a convenient, turnkey e-commerce platform where they can market their discount promotions. We act as a marketing partner and work to drive consistent, profitable, and repeatable traffic. The exciting part is that this is just the beginning. We will constantly evolve—there are so many exciting new features and benefits coming throughout the year, lots of surprises.”
Travis Stocking’s goals are a bit more significant than simply financial success. With the profits gained as a result of Herbpon’s success, Travis Stocking hopes to give back to the community. “I will be able to help my father invest back into our community by further expanding his chain of boxing-centric gymnasiums throughout cities in need of after-school programs for disenfranchised youth,” Travis Stocking stated. “I was lucky that I was greatly influenced by my two parents, both lifelong business owners. I saw how they gave back to their communities when their success grew. This helped inspire my vision for the future,” said Travis Stocking. In addition to fostering and growing Herbpon, Travis Stocking hopes to spread his message of entrepreneurial independence as a motivational speaker for various youth programs throughout his community.
