I want to walk into a dispensary, and there’s just a folding chair, and the budtenders make $150,000/yr…
No marketing budget. You know the quality is consistent, so you show up, everyone is happy, and you leave feeling like you just hugged your grandma…
My biggest struggle with CannManage is working to strike a balance.
Duality is as necessary as the art of pivoting for an entrepreneur in a constantly evolving space. It needs to feel good this time around, and it needs to work. I’ve always started everyone else’s cannabis companies, and it’s because I love to take someone’s dream and run with it, and I always will. That’s why I did it for 16 years. To execute properly you need an ensemble cast as passionate as you are about the brand. I am that person for my clients and will be for you, too.
I’ve always known what has to be done in the cannabis industry before everyone else. I was annoying people with the entourage effect and challenging people’s taxonomic theories at dispensaries in 2012.
I see a need for more people to help on the start-up side for small companies and those entering the market as Social Equity applicants. I always make sure to distinguish the two. SE candidates have a unique opportunity to enact change with a significant market presence and have the life experiences necessary to breathe humanity into a space occupied mainly by greed.
The success of craft companies – models focused on monetizing a genuine quality-focused community, are dually necessary to stabilize a market that is currently saturated, planned in regulatory haste and indecision, red bow wrapped in bureaucracy and litigation, and unevenly scaled. I also see a space where disruptive technology can create opportunities for people who are new to the industry.
2024 is going to be the best year of my life.
I want to share this extra time I gained from efficiency and channel this excess energy into the most essential ingredient in the cannabis industry: People.
CannManage is having a sale on Maryland business application help and business plans and decks for anyone looking to enter the trade. You don’t need tens of thousands of dollars to have someone write a custom plan.
This is not a gimmick.
We’re a team of two writers who will hold meetings with you during the process and ensure you have the documentation and narratives needed to quantify your dream.
You can buy business plan packages as a gift, which will be good for a year. Just let us know in the Calendly link so we can send you a custom card to send them. I want to help you with the documentation needed to analyze your idea and make sound decisions.
We also made our first cannabis consulting robot, trained significantly to help Social Equity applicants in Maryland. Come and say hello to me, the robot, and TJ, our head writer, in our Discord Community this weekend.
See you there.
