Marino leverages its unique vantage point as a leading #cannabisPR consultant to advocate for cannabis rescheduling. By submitting a formal comment to the DEA, we underscore the urgent need for evidence-based regulations that enhance scientific research, alleviate financial burdens on businesses, and promote industry equity. The reclassification to Schedule III would remove barriers to rigorous research and provide financial relief by eliminating Section 280E constraints. This initiative reflects our commitment to advancing sensible and equitable cannabis policy. Thanks to Jordan Isenstadt, founder of the Marino Cannabis practice for his advocacy!

Excited to share a significant milestone for Marino. as we step up our #cannabisadvocacy efforts! For the first time ever, Marino has filed a formal comment with the DEA regarding the #rescheduling of #cannabis. 🌿✨ Having been in the industry for 7+ years, we’ve had the privilege of working with hundreds of dope companies across the nation of all shapes and sizes. This submission reflects our unwavering commitment to pushing for sensible #cannabispolicyreform. 💪 Here’s an excerpt: “As a PR firm specializing in the #cannabisindustry, our job is to tell the stories of our clients, as well as the customers and patients they serve. The lack of robust research has created a situation where much of what we communicate remains anecdotal, which is no way to build a credible and sustainable industry. Anecdotes, while powerful, cannot replace the authority of well-conducted research. More information will set us all free by providing the evidence needed to validate and optimize the use of cannabis, both medicinally and recreationally.” There’s still time to make your voice heard! 🗣️ Drop your comments and join us in advocating for positive change. Check the link in the comments for more details about how to file your comments. ⬇️ #CannabisCommunity #MarinoCannabis #CannabisPR #MakeCannabisDopeAgain

With the iconic Macy’s fireworks returning to the Hudson River for the first time in over a decade, Marino client Pier 57 invited the public to experience the spectacular show at its rooftop park which sprawls nearly two acres with panoramic views of Hudson River Park, the Lower Manhattan skyline and New York Harbor. Marino leveraged the exciting moment to showcase Pier 57 and its rooftop park as one the best places to view the fireworks and secured coverage across key national and local media outlets including PureWow, New York Post, MSN.com, Time Out, Secret NYC and others. Thousands of visitors came together to take in the stunning views, enjoy bites from Pier 57’s food hall Market 57 and listen to live DJ sets. From free community spaces and a food hall with a focus on women-and BIPOC-owned food concepts to a mission-centered showcase kitchen, Pier 57 offers visitors a waterfront experience filled with food, art, culture, nature, and more. We’re proud to work with Pier 57 and highlight this year-round community destination that celebrates New York City’s culinary and cultural diversity. Photo credit: Jamestown

I'm thrilled to announce the launch of a new Q&A interview series, "Greet the Press with Marino." Produced by Marino. Creative Studio, each episode shines a spotlight on the incredible work of our colleagues and friends in journalism, the challenges they face, and their interactions with PR professionals that help shape the news we consume every day. In our latest installment, I had the honor of interviewing the esteemed Jessica Layton, a freelance anchor at NBC News. Jessica shared her journey from her early days at WWNY-TV in Watertown, NY, to her impactful reporting at WNYT in Albany, and her significant contributions as a correspondent at WCBS | CBS New York. During our conversation, we delved deep into: -Intense Pressure: How journalists handle the fast-paced and high-stress environment of breaking news. -Triumphs and Challenges: The highlights and excitement of a career in journalism as well as the difficulties that come with covering major events, from natural disasters to political scandals. -Collaboration: The crucial role of PR professionals in providing information and facilitating media coverage plus some do's and don'ts. -Wellness and the Workplace: Ensuring that, while pursuing a successful career in communications, self-care and mental well-being remains a priority. We hope you'll check out our series as we offer a behind-the-scenes look at the journalism profession and what it takes to produce the news that we rely on. Stay tuned for more interviews with top journalists as we explore their stories, their struggles, and their successes. #Journalism #Media #PR #BehindTheScenes #InterviewSeries #JessicaLayton #NBCNews #WCBS

As a native New Yorker and baseball fan, I was thrilled to meet Major League Baseball (MLB)'s biggest star of the season at one of the most unexpected places I could imagine: our client, McDonald's, 2024 Worldwide Convention in Barcelona, Spain. I don’t mean Aaron Judge or Juan Soto from my beloved New York Yankees, I’m talking about the spark plug that’s been powering our crosstown rivals, the Mets: Grimace. Ever since the beloved purple icon threw out a ceremonial first pitch for the New York Mets on June 12th, the team has been on the hottest streak in baseball, winning seven games in a row, and nine of their last 11 games. A month later, through the lens of the Grimace phenomenon, I’m seeing many of the global convention’s main teachings come together in real time to wonderful effect. Among other topics at McDonald’s Worldwide Convention, the company's leadership team and guest speakers discussed the importance of “storydoing” and not simply storytelling, how digital media informs their understanding of their customers through social listening of trends that they are loving, and how to utilize those findings to connect with their fans in unexpected ways. Last night, in the first game of the Subway Series, McDonald’s unveiled a new ad in CitiField, the home of the Mets, featuring the purple mascot in celebration and ownership of their social moment, proclaiming, “It Wasn’t Luck. It Wasn’t Fate. It was Grimace.” The sign, and story, was centerstage in the game, being highlighted by local and national media on broadcast, and continues to be top of mind in conversation on and offline today. Here we see the benefits of McDonald’s best-in-industry marketing and engagement efforts playing out in real time. Grimace’s initial appearance at the Mets was an example of executing a storyline, however their attention to the social media conversation afterwards gave them the opportunity to capitalize on the buzz ultimately rewarding McDonald’s with the kind of positive and natural cultural moment that any brand would dream of. Now, as my Yankees prepare to bounce back in game two of their series with the Mets, I just want to know: when is The Hamburglar going to throw out the first pitch in the Bronx?

This week, we celebrated the completion of the transformation of Wise Towers - one of 16 Manhattan public housing developments PACT Renaissance Collaborative (PRC) has spent the last four years transforming. It's been a privilege supporting my client PRC in this important endeavor to provide these residents with the quality of life they deserve, and their work is both a testament to the PACT program and a challenge to other developers to bring the same standard of care to future PACT developments.
It was a joy to be with the tenants of Wise Towers, where we celebrated the completed transformation of the property. There was cotton candy, popcorn, face painting, a ribbon cutting—and many happy residents enjoying the newly renovated facilities. Our deep thanks to our PRC partners, to New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA), and to New York City Housing Development Corporation for helping make this happen! And thank you, too, to our local elected officials for their support. Congratulations to all!

Misinformation is a major impediment to advancing policies and developments that can contribute to addressing the housing problem. Pre-butting, rebutting, educating, correcting, and clarifying can help blunt the impact of misinformation. That's why I wrote this - "What is As of Right?" - the first in a series of quick pieces where I'll try to decode some common terms that are favorites of the anti-housing crowd. Check it out. #housing #affordablehousing #housingcrisis #yimby #nimby https://lnkd.in/eHvrcgMY
