Valley Veiw Ent. Smart Initiatives LLC LBC LLC Green Bud Initiatives, LLC DHW Marketing Green Bud Initiatives is a spin on Client Initiatives and not a registered LLC Brain child of Todd Johnson Being managed by Jeremy Johnson and Deborah Christiansen with Jennifer Scott managing investor relations (complaints) They are offering lagre investment returns for LLC's managing cannabis farms in Northern California. These LLC's are buying into portions of dilapidated, yet functional greenhouses. These greehouses are to be retrofited to local standards before plants go in. The amount of return substantially less than anticipated.
The date of dispersals pushed months further without notice. They will accept your investment of $25,000 regardless of your financial situation or status and pressure you to invest fast. Was asked several times, after investing, to show proof of investment and legal paperwork. Before they had the opportunity to prove out their business plan, I was being solicited for money to put into other multi-million dollar project. They had their assistant call me to tell me i was going on a shareholders cruise after 1st dispersal but only the Johnson brothers went on a cruise.

I too have rec. 2 payouts that were both 10% of what was promised and now the past two draw periods I have received no payout and upon calling I am now getting no answer...I have attempted 5 calls over the past month.
If someone doesn’t look into this soon next call will be to SEC. so far this company at best needs to regroup and figure it out on the communication side so their investors that are patient and understanding are not being brushed aside...at worst they are scammers and paying people just enough of a return to make this a civil matter and not a criminal matter

I am one of the principals who manages the operations for GBI. I was made aware of this report back in December 2017 but held back from drafting a rebuttal until it was advised that I do so.
First and foremost, the information listed as being factual is anything but. Allow me to address each statement presented.
In short, whoever wrote this is way completely incorrect and presents facts based on a 100% zero basis. The facxt that it was written as anonymous tells me that it wasn't even an invester. We have 2 Members in our database who reside in Kansas. Neither of them wrote the report. We look forward to an amazing 2018, 2019, and so on and so forth. Thank you to all of the GBI employees, contractors, and partners for helping us to make this such a wonderful team.

Hi there,
I am an investor oc this company. I began with GBI last July. I have since received two payouts. The company is new and there are glitches and that is why the payouts are not coming as quickly as we would like. I would like the payouts every week, if I could. But we have been receiving them every other month. Before I invested I was skeptical but I just jumped in and I am glad I did. It will take a couple of years for me to get my money back and see a positive but I do believe I made the right decision. It is not right for this report to be out here like this because someone was impatient to get their dividend. The company is new--still struggling, but I do believe the cannabis business will explode and whoever is invested will be benefit!
