DALLAS, July 19, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rocky Mountain High Brands, Inc. (OTCQB:RMHB), a fully reporting lifestyle brand management company specializing in high-quality health and wellness products, announced today that Michael Welch, President and Chief Executive Officer of Rocky Mountain High Brands, Inc., was interviewed on Tuesday, July 17, 2018 by two Dallas television stations, CBS11 and CW33, for stories on the tremendous growth of hemp-derived CBD products. The Company also announced that it recently entered into an agreement with Real News PR , a Dallas-based public relations firm owned by former newscaster Jeff Crilley.

Mr. Welch stated, “We are very excited about our new relationship with former newscaster Jeff Crilley and his Real News PR public relations firm.  Last week, they scheduled me on In the Know with Brian Glenn on 620 AM KEXB Experts in Business .  On Tuesday, they scheduled back to back interviews in our Rocky Mountain High Brands corporate offices with reporters from television stations CBS11 and CW33 .  Overall, we were pleased with the exposure, however, the CBS11 report contained some inaccurate information that needs further clarification:

  • The reporter named me as the owner of Rocky Mountain High Brands , versus indicating that it is a publicly traded company.
  • The approximate investment that the Company has made in launching our hemp-derived CBD brand was implied to be my personal investment versus a corporate investment.
  • The reporter said that I was unaware of what the Texas law is, which is an inaccurate statement.”

Mr. Welch continued, “The Company made the decision to engage Jeff Crilley and Real News PR after being approached by several public relations firms.  In the past, the Company has worked with public relations firms that could not meet our desired goals.  By choosing the best public relations firm, we believe that we can increase exposure of the Company, its brands, and its products to consumers, investors, and shareholders.” 

Mr. Welch concluded, “ Rocky Mountain High Brands has a great story to tell as evidenced by the media interest in the nation’s fifth largest television market.  We believe that Jeff Crilley and his team are the perfect fit to take our consumer awareness campaign to the next level.”
