A message from our CEO, Rick Bashkoff following another great Revelery Buyers Club event in Hudson.
Observation and opinion: NY cannabis operators are tough as nails. While all markets have significant challenges at the start of adult use, hashtag#nycannabis was definitely on the highest end of that spectrum. It’s been anything but easy, but yesterday in Hudson, hundreds of brands and retailers showed up to Revelry Buyers Club 05 by ON THE REVEL with smiles on their faces and business to close.
Brands were taking orders from retailers at their booths. Relationships starting, taking shape or solidifying. I really enjoyed being a fly on the wall in some of those discussions and introducing/starting a few as well.
While it’s always top of mind to meet potential new customers for Lit Alerts, the highlight for me was being able to shake hands with, high five or hug over 30 of our current brand and retail customers. We talked about new problems they are trying to solve. We talked about new features coming. We talked about where in their tech stack Lit Alerts data would be most helpful.
To those I missed, I promise I tried, but you were talking to a buyer and we know our role.
Lulu Tsui, Jacobi Holland, Geraldine Mae Cueva, Peter Mercado-Reyes and the rest of the team, congratulations on stepping it up yet another year and we appreciate the impact you bring to #nycannabis.
