"Based on the current market share for pre-rolls and looking at the previous discussed trends, it can be perceived that marketing your recreational use pre-rolls should definitely be geared towards younger people as they are the prime candidates to purchase these products (Gen Z women purchase pre-rolls at a shocking 15% higher average compared to 8% for Gen Z men)."

Choosing a team can be overwhelming. With so many roles to fulfill it can be difficult to narrow down where to begin. I recommend starting with a technical expertise team. This starting team includes a head grower, head of sales, head of marketing, and operations manager. Starting with a well-rounded team can increase your potential for success in the long-run.

Why do we need legalization? There are more ma*****na posession charges last year than all other violent crimes together. The vast majority of these arrests (92%) were for simple possession of the drug.

What are your thoughts?
