Reports and spreadsheets don’t fit the typical image of cannabis culture. Black market sellers certainly didn’t keep their books, and neither did grassroots dispensaries. Times have changed, and instead the law to fear, there’s competition to outpace.

Regulators frequently push back the timeframe for the commencement of sales. A good example is Canada, who delayed their legalization by five months. The wait caused disastrous cash flow problems for retailers, who were left with big lease payments — and no revenue.

Every touchpoint of that customer experience was a slight error or a minor disappointment. When those touchpoints combined, however, the trip to the store — which included driving, parking, walking through snow, and waiting in line — was a complete failure.
