"Cash strapped" might be the most heard phrase in the cannabis industry right now.
So… where’s the cash?

Without disciplined forecasting and visibility into true costs, growth is meaningless. Most companies aren’t failing from bad ideas — they’re failing in execution. That’s where cash leaks into missed forecasts, bloated inventory, and lost opportunity.

Cash flow isn’t a quarterly metric — it has to be a daily focus.

The ones with visibility are growing profitably and setting themselves up to survive now and thrive later.

This week we sit down with Tyler Nielsen to discuss:

• Closing the Execution Gap and unlocking hidden cash
• How to identify leaks and improve visibility across the business
• Connecting the front of the house to the back for real-time decision making
