McKenna Maher hasn't added a story.
Laura Geist and Myself (McKenna Maher) live in Wichita, Kansas, and started working on a business plan for our smoke shop, Higher Ethics, in November 2014. In the past, we have both been employed by large corporations that don't seem to have real connections with their employees, and have seen the ways it can take a toll on the business.
Our name, Higher Ethics, comes from four main goals. The first is making sure that all of our employees are respected and feel like part of a team. We want all of our staff members to feel confident asking questions, and suggesting changes. Second, we plan to always carry a variety of products that are eco-friendly and/or contribute to local and worldwide social issues. Our third goal is for every customer to leave the store with product in hand, a smile on their face, and intent to return! Lastly, the art scene is growingly rapidly in Wichita, and we want to provide efficient space for local artists to display and sell their work.
Our Mission: to encourage the belief in equality for all things living, to provide a place for culture and art to thrive, and to cultivate a frame of mind based on progressive thinking.
We plan to have our shop open in the heart of downtown Wichita by the summer of 2015, or sooner if possible. With all of the planning and organizing under our belt, the last thing we need is help with funding from our community and friends! Please support us in our journey to achieving our dreams, and helping local artists achieve theirs!
