Advice grounded in your actual position rather than a general framework.
Ongoing strategic counsel from people who already have your financials in front of them — which means advice grounded in your actual position rather than a general framework.
What's Included
Why This Differs In Cannabis
Strategic decisions in cannabis carry tax consequences that dominate the analysis. Whether to add a cultivation license, how to structure a second location, whether to bring processing in-house — each of these changes your 280E position, sometimes dramatically. An advisor who treats tax as a downstream consideration will recommend things that look right operationally and cost you badly.

Frequently Asked
How is this different from part-time CFO?
Advisory is periodic and strategic. Part-time CFO is embedded and operational. Some clients use both.
How often do we meet?
Typically monthly or quarterly.
Do we need to be an accounting client?
