  • Great Conversations around the Future of Cannabis

    I love how the dime speaks not just on the cannabis industry but is also speaking directly to the folks who are on the front line.

    Hearing from beverage manufacturers from the hemp side and as well as folks who are on the front line of the regulated market gives such an interesting preceptive the view points clash but you can see how each market independently operates.Bravo.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Cannabis Beverages Are Bringing New Consumers Into Cannabis ft Kristin & Eric Rogers
Q: Kristin, why are brand expansion and multi-state presence not the sole indicators of success in cannabis beverages?
Kristin explains that each state has its own regulatory framework and consumer access, so success should be measured by consistent, product-specific performance, including dosing accuracy, consumer trust, and the ability to maintain a coherent brand experience across markets, rather than merely counting states.
Most Cannabis Marketing Fails Because It Is Asked to Solve the Wrong Problems ft. John Shute
Q: Why do you think it's underutilized?
I think it makes sense that it's underutilized just because of the way things work for a cannabis brand.
Most Cannabis Marketing Fails Because It Is Asked to Solve the Wrong Problems ft. John Shute
Q: What's the first thing you're killing?
I would probably cut my social media budget to start.
Robotics vs Automation in Cannabis Manufacturing ft. Nohtal Partansky
Q: How do you determine if a problem lies with the customer or the machine's design?
If only one customer reports the issue, it likely indicates a problem with their operation; however, a comprehensive analysis is necessary to ensure accurate diagnosis.
Robotics vs Automation in Cannabis Manufacturing ft. Nohtal Partansky
Q: What kind of issues do companies face while transitioning to automated systems?
Companies struggle with understanding the technology and how to implement it effectively, often not adapting well to the variability in cannabis production.
