I inherited the cannabis dispensary near me from a neighbor of mine.
The guy was honestly ancient school, then he didn’t do anything online at all, when he needed more workers, he took out an ad in the paper.
When there was an issue, he had all the people talk it out, however people punched in for labor with an actual paper punch card. The guy did absolutely no 401 K contributions either, and it baffles me how behind the times he was. When I took over the cannabis dispensary, I decided that I needed some cannabis software. I wanted dispeanry time & attendance software. I didn’t trust the budtenders to not fake their numbers. I wanted it all on the iPad & automated. I also hoped to eliminate people punching in for each other & getting paid for minutes they didn’t work. I looked into a human resource contractor partner for my dispensary. The dispensary HR services were more than worth the money. I also hunted around for dispensary retirement planning & a cannabis 401K provider. I wanted to make my contractor legit & to be a fantastic place to work. Thankfully I found a cannabis dispensary software business that had all of these programs for me. They set everything up, trained me & my bartenders & got us all on the same page, however everything works more efficiently now. I am blissful the dispenser is off paper for the first time ever. The previous contractor owner did a absolutely fantastic task. He kept the dispensary afloat & was fantastic with his people… But times have changed & you need to change with them.
