Hi, I'm new to the site, and it seems the vast majority of people here work in SaaS. Any other Cannabis sales folks out there? I'd love to connect with people to discuss our industry more!
Anyone here work in Cannabis?

Not I.
Doesn't seem like it is the way it used to be in Canada... So many closures and plummeting stock prices.

Got the job from Indeed. If you live in the west coast, they’re easy jobs to find since no one wants to try, as the industry is collapsing.
I put my profile on LinkdIn and suddenly all these Eastern states are hitting me up asking if I’d relocate for absurd amounts of money

For Cannabis sales a really good base is $60k with OTE around $95k. For a job that really doesn’t require that much experience, it’s not bad. Just need to be willing to hustle while the industry is collapsing around you.
East coast grows are offering 2x what you’ll get in west coast.

Got it! Thanks for sharing.
SaaS offering is much better in my experience but as you pointed out you might need relevant experience.

Well I have an AE interview with a Canntech company on Friday. I almost exclusively use their software, so I know it super well. It’s definitely 2x what I make now and then some

I live in Colombia so any work will have to be remote, I have had very little luck.

Why do you say the industry is collapsing?

Prices are collapsing while taxes and government regulations increase. A lb used to go for $2500 2 years ago now goes for $800.

Cannabis as a commodity, so loose flower, packaged goods like edibles, rosin, prerolls, etc. Its kind of a mix between AE and AM. At first my gig was way more AE, but now it’s mostly existing accounts and just trying to increase their sales and take on new products. Still a lot of door to door, and I’m on the road 40hrs a week
