Overview

The brand uses one account per platform. Professor High is the character who creates all organic content. The account name is “This Is Why I’m High” with Professor High as the content creator persona. The one exception: LinkedIn uses a company page (High AI Labs) with a professional voice, not Professor High.

Why One Account Per Platform

Algorithm Advantage

Algorithms reward consistency and velocity on a single account. Splitting content across multiple accounts dilutes reach.

Audience Growth

One account concentrates all followers, engagement, and social proof in a single place per platform.

Unified Voice

Professor High covers both website (TIWIH) and app (High IQ) content through the 6 content pillars — no need for separate brand accounts.

LinkedIn

  • Company page, not a personal profile

  • Tagline: “Cannabis intelligence platform powered by AI and data science”
  • Team: Add relevant team members as page admins
LinkedIn is the only platform that does NOT use Professor High’s voice. Content here is professional and company-focused, representing High AI Labs.

Content Safety Reminders

All platforms restrict cannabis content to varying degrees. Follow these rules across every platform:
Violating platform cannabis policies can result in shadowbans, content removal, or permanent account suspension. Always err on the side of caution.
RuleDetails
No product imageryNever show cannabis products, smoking, or consumption
Educational framingPosition all content as educational and scientific
No medical claimsUse “research suggests” and “may help” — never make definitive health claims
Safe hashtagsAvoid hashtags that trigger shadowbans: #420, #WeedTikTok, #StonerTikTok
Platform risk levelsTikTok and Instagram are strictest; X/Twitter and YouTube are more permissive
Test new hashtags by searching them on the platform first. If a hashtag returns no results or shows a content warning, it is likely restricted.
