Cannabis is chaotic by design. Vertical integration forces operators to run six or seven businesses at once — then replicate that model across states with different regulations, all without economies of scale. It's no wonder the industry feels messy.The bigger problem? Too many companies are chasing the wrong metrics and ignoring the lessons other industries already learned.This week we sit down with Mitchell Osak — a veteran strategist across pharma, CPG, financial services, and cannabis — to unpack the hard truths and strategy lessons MSOs can't afford to miss.In this episode we cover:• The wrong metrics driving cannabis off course — and which ones Mitch would track instead• Why TAM slides are the biggest lie in cannabis strategy•  Which playbooks cannabis should borrow from pharma, wine, and techSummary:In this episode, Bryan Fields and Kellan Finney engage with Mitch Osak, a seasoned consultant in the cannabis industry. They explore Mitch's journey into cannabis consulting, the importance of strategic planning, and the challenges of standardization in the market. The conversation delves into the differences between large operators and middle market firms, the significance of understanding metrics, and the need for innovation. Mitch emphasizes the importance of learning from other industries, the role of AI, and the necessity for scenario planning in navigating the evolving landscape of cannabis. The episode concludes with insights on the future of the industry and the importance of external consultation.Chapters00:00 Introduction to the Cannabis Industry and Its Challenges04:01 Strategic Planning in Cannabis: A Holistic Approach06:01 Bridging the Gap: Cultivators vs. Financial Stakeholders09:46 Market Dynamics: The Rise of Middle Market Firms12:08 The Importance of Strategic Focus in Cannabis14:01 Understanding Quality and Consumer Insights18:10 The Role of Data and Metrics in Cannabis Business22:12 Cost Management vs. Quality Improvement25:50 Learning from Other Industries: Wine, Fashion, and Tech30:11 Future Opportunities in the Global Cannabis Market31:56 Navigating Regulatory Challenges and International Expansion33:04 The Importance of External Perspectives in Business Strategy35:32 Understanding Market Dynamics and Total Addressable Market (TAM)36:24 Opportunities in Distressed Assets and Market Entry39:10 Evaluating Acquisition Strategies and Asset Valuation41:27 The Complexity of Due Diligence in Cannabis Investments44:37 Scenario Planning for Future Industry Changes47:10 The Role of AI in Strategic Decision-Making51:25 Data as the Foundation for AI Success53:01 Preparing for Industry Consolidation and Survival Strategies TakeawaysMitch Osak has extensive experience in consulting across various industries, including cannabis.Strategic planning in cannabis requires a holistic approach, considering multiple factors.There is a disconnect between cultivators and investors in the cannabis industry.Standardization in the cannabis market is essential for growth and consistency.Middle market firms are gaining market share from larger operators due to strategic focus.Quality improvement should take precedence over merely cutting costs.External consultation can provide valuable insights for cannabis companies.Data and metrics are crucial for making informed decisions in the cannabis industry.AI can be a powerful tool, but it requires quality data to be effective.The cannabis industry must learn from other sectors to navigate its challenges.  Guest Linkshttps://www.linkedin.com/in/mitchellosak/https://mitchellosak.substack.com/https://x.com/MitchellOsak Our LinksBryan Fields on TwitterKellan Finney on TwitterThe Dime on TwitterExtraction Teams: Want to cut costs and get more out of every run?

Stephen Zubiago, CEO and Managing Partner of Nixon Peabody LLP, joins hosts Chris Batz and Howard Rosenberg to share what it takes to lead an AmLaw 100 firm through growth, competition, and change. He talks about how Nixon Peabody LLP aligns talent strategy with client needs, develops attorneys at every level, and builds a culture where collaboration and entrepreneurial drive matter as much as expertise. Their discussion explores the firm's focus on industries like financial services, real estate and affordable housing, healthcare, and technology, and why being selective about expansion is key to long-term strength.   This episode also looks at the bigger shifts reshaping the legal profession, including the race for talent, pressure to scale, and the rise of private equity in professional services. Stephen explains why Nixon Peabody LLP has turned down outside capital, how flexible remote work policies have strengthened retention after COVID, and why artificial intelligence is changing the way law is practiced. At the core of his leadership approach is a simple principle: the firm moves forward when its people do.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Stephen Zubiago's Career Journey 02:49 Vision for Growth at Nixon Peabody LLP 03:54 Attracting and Retaining Top Legal Talent 04:57 Key Practice Areas and Industry Focus 06:33 Balancing Firm Size with Culture and Market Position 11:17 What Differentiates Nixon Peabody LLP 14:01 Private Equity and the Future of Law Firms 16:01 The Partnership Model and Capital Needs 18:16 Managing Pricing Pressures in Legal Services 23:21 Navigating Challenges and Future Opportunities 24:01 Remote Work, Flexibility, and Retention 28:53 Innovation, Industry Focus, and AI in Legal Practice   Links Connect with Stephen Zubiago: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephen-zubiago-3141815/ Website Bio: https://www.nixonpeabody.com/people/zubiago-stephen-d   Connect with Howard Rosenberg: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/hrosenberg/ Company Web Profile: https://www.baretzbrunelle.com/howard-rosenberg   Connect with Chris Batz: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chrisbatz/  LinkedIn Company Page: https://www.linkedin.com/company/columbus-street/ Columbus Street Website: https://www.columbus-street.com/  Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

Expanding SMEs in Europe and Asia with Kathryn ReadWelcome to another episode of the Asia Business Podcast. In this episode, we are delighted to have Kathryn Read, an accomplished consultant who aids SMEs in expanding their reach into Europe and Asia. With a rich background in the food and beverage industry and extensive experience in infant nutrition, especially concerning China, Kathryn offers invaluable insights into the evolving business climate of Asia.Introducing Kathryn ReadVisit Kathryn's WebsiteKathryn Read is a consultant specializing in guiding small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) through the complexities of expanding into diverse Asian markets. Her journey began in Austria, where she transitioned from being a linguist to an influential figure in the infant nutrition sector, specifically targeting China. Her wealth of experience comes not only from her professional roles but also from her firsthand navigation of cultural and business environments across Asia.The Impact of Scandals on Market DynamicsReflecting on the infamous 2008 infant formula scandal in China, Kathryn highlights how such incidents have reshaped consumer trust and market opportunities for foreign brands. This crisis created a significant opening for foreign companies, which were then perceived as more trustworthy compared to local brands. However, Kathryn notes that over the years, China has strengthened its regulations and consumer attitudes have shifted, leading to increased competition for foreign brands.Evolving Consumer Trust and Brand StrategyChina's path from skepticism toward local products to embracing "Made in China" again is a testament to the country's evolving trust landscape. Kathryn stresses the importance for foreign brands to adapt by understanding local consumer preferences and establishing a unique selling proposition (USP) that resonates locally. Success hinges not just on being a foreign brand but offering a narrative and product that aligns with the market's premium or niche tastes.Localizing for Success in Asian MarketsKathryn emphasizes that brands must carefully navigate the balance between preserving their global identity and localizing effectively to appeal to specific Asian markets. Localization can involve adjusting product packaging, altering flavors, or even adapting marketing strategies to suit regional consumer sensibilities. This strategic approach allows brands to maintain their global image while simultaneously penetrating new markets.The Role of Strategic PartnershipsBuilding robust partnerships is a critical strategy for entering Asian markets. Kathryn insists that brands should invest time in cultivating partnerships with local distributors and sales channels. Through shared resources and mutual goals, such partnerships can significantly enhance a brand's market entry and growth processes.Case Study: Crafted Success in KoreaHighlighting an Australian brand's success story, Kathryn shares how Vonderberg Brewed Drinks expertly positioned themselves within Korea by capitalizing on their authenticity and unique packaging. Their strategic entry into high-end bars and cafes, coupled with a compelling brand narrative, underscored the importance of a strong brand identity tailored to local tastes.Navigating Logistics and DistributionKathryn advises that understanding local logistics and leveraging established networks is essential for navigating the complex infrastructure of Asian markets. Working with an importer who can manage distribution nuances and align with the brand's overall strategy is often key to successful market penetration.Future Opportunities and TrendsLooking ahead, Kathryn identifies wellness, affordable luxury, and sustainability as emerging sectors with significant potential for growth in Asia. As consumer preferences towards ethical and health-conscious products grow, brands can find unique opportunities in these evolving sectors.Final Thoughts and Contact InformationKathryn Read brings her extensive expertise to businesses looking to prosper in the Asian markets. Active on LinkedIn and available through her website, kathryneread.com, Kathryn remains an accessible source of knowledge for brands aiming to expand their global footprint.Thank you to Kathryn for sharing her insights, and listeners eagerly glean from such discussions to refine their strategies in the Asian business arena.

The conversation also touches on the importance of training and educating clients to maximize the benefits of AI technologies.As the discussion progresses, the speakers address the challenges faced by smaller MSPs in adapting to the rapid advancements in AI. They caution against relying solely on specific AI models, as the market is still evolving, and emphasize the need for MSPs to build applications that utilize AI effectively. The potential for automation in routine operations is highlighted as a key area for MSPs to explore, allowing them to streamline their processes and focus on higher-value services.Ultimately, the conversation underscores the necessity for MSPs to rethink their strategies in light of AI advancements. By embracing customer success initiatives and restructuring their approach to service delivery, MSPs can position themselves for growth in a competitive landscape.

Understanding student identity is crucial for college readiness. The financial aspect of college is often a major concern for families.

Parents and students often have different priorities regarding college fit. Early exposure to college environments can spark interest in higher education. Career paths are evolving, and students need to be aware of future job markets. Engaging students in meaningful conversations can help clarify their goals. The college selection process should focus on academic, social, and financial fits. Parents should avoid treating their child as an average statistic. Starting college preparation early can prevent future academic setbacks. Community service involvement should begin as early as possible. A customized college readiness plan is essential for each student. The 'vault' contains valuable data to guide families in the admissions process. Recording sessions with students provides insights for parents. Understanding a child's love language can improve communication. Mentorship plays a crucial role in the college preparation process. Simplifying the college admissions process reduces overwhelm for families. Scholarship opportunities can be pursued as early as seventh grade.

This is Zack Fuss. Today, we're breaking down Arm Holdings. Arm designs the architecture powering billions of devices, from smartphones and data centers to IoT devices and automotive systems. In this episode, we'll explore Arm's unique value proposition and how it thrives as a licensing giant in a market dominated by leading-edge manufacturers. To break down Arm, I am joined by Jay Goldberg, who is the CEO and lead analyst at D2D Advisory, a technology and strategy consultancy. We discuss its business model, the partnerships that drive its growth, and its role in enabling companies like Apple, NVIDIA, and Qualcomm. We will also unpack Arm's business history, including its acquisition by SoftBank, its failed takeover by NVIDIA, and its IPO earlier this year. Arm currently sports a $150 billion market cap with sales approaching $5 billion, a rather robust 30x revenue multiple.
