9 dispensaries in 12 hours on my drive down the CA coast to Benzinga's Cannabis Capital Conference in Culver City. Here are six observations on what some retailers are doing well and where I see opportunity: * Budtenders over everything ... A beautiful setup, great first-time discount, product variety, fancy technology, etc., all come second to an informative and happy team member curating a personalized experience. * Farm-to-shelf ...Vertically integrated operators can do a better job of spotlighting their product. It's rare for a consumer to get to meet the grower, but you're offering the next best thing. Tell me a story so I can have a deeper connection with your in-house brands, and make them easy for me to find. * Alternative lanes ... Lines are the kiss of death. Having a self-service kiosk is an easy option to divert traffic when things get busy. * Sniff-Sniff-Pass ... Until you offer taster stations like Costco, the best way to show off high-end flower is the sniff jars with a button to push air into the container, heightening the smell test. * Capture repeat business ... Eight of nine retailers had a first-time discount, but only one promoted an incentive for the 2nd and 3rd visit. * Keep learning - Only one dispensary sent me a survey after my visit. It gave me the choice to score the budtender on a scale of 1-5 stars, which seemed like a missed opportunity to capture more feedback/data about me.

🌱🚀 On the move with Paragon! 🌱🚀 Check out these two Paragon fertigation machines chilling in our VRBO living room in AZ! We're here doing an install for The Mint Dispensary. We know many grows hesitate to invest in a Paragon because they rent their space or don’t own the license they’re working under. Here’s the thing about the Paragon – it’s totally plug-and-play. Moving locations? No problem. Just disconnect the power, nutrients, inlet, and outlet, and you're on your way. You can fit it in the back of a pickup truck if need be. Fun fact: that’s how we delivered the very first Paragon! So don’t worry about making it a permanent fixture unless you want to. The Paragon is ready to roll wherever your grow takes you. 🚚💨 #ParagonFertigation #GrowOnTheGo #PlugAndPlay #CannabisCommunity #TheMintDispensary #EdenWaterTech #PortableSolutions #CannabisCultivation #InnovationInAgriculture #ThePoweroftheParagon

Always good to find a career that aligns with the values you were raised with.

People can buy weed anywhere. Why should they buy it from you? Typically, this is the moment I hop up on my soapbox and rant about superpowers and super brands and how dispensaries must deliver a unique and compelling branded retail experience that gives people a reason to buy weed from them. Well, surprise. I'm not doing that today (Tomorrow, maybe. We'll see.) But the bottom line remains the same: Weed is not the reason why people come to a dispensary. They come for the vibe, the culture, and the community. They come to learn. But who provides all that for them? If you guessed the Budtender, go you. #1 The Budtender delivers your brand experience. #2 The Budtender is who your customers buy weed from. Call your accountant to check the math but #1 + #2 = The Budtender is a Dispensary God. How well are you treating yours?
