If you're considering market entry, our hourly consulting services may be an ideal solution for identifying and realizing your goals and aligning them with a sound business strategy.


Through our hourly consultations, we can provide you with a comprehensive understanding of the cannabis industry, including the licensing and permitting processes in your state and municipality. We'll also provide guidance on how to best position your unique cannabis brand within the industry, and answer any questions you may have before you consider committing to more robust business strategy consulting.

If you have an existing business you want to grow, expand into a new market, or develop an exit strategy for, our consultants can provide you with the information and guidance you need to reach your goals.


We'll analyze your operating environment and identify the competitive advantages and core strengths your business has and how to exploit them for maximum profitability. We can also identify any weaknesses and offer support on how to overcome these obstacles. Looking at strengths and weaknesses together allows us to determine if current company goals need adjustment.


Not only can we customize these services and offer them individually, but we can also make them part of a comprehensive package of information and support for your company's success.


A quality assessment helps you recognize any areas where your company is struggling, and find the areas where you can excel. Balancing these areas, and adjusting your goals, is the key to correcting issues or concerns and making it more likely that you'll see continued advancement in your target market.
