Have you ever heard the term scratching your own itch? It’s when you experience a problem, solve it, and then realize this could be a business. That’s what happened to our guest Amy Nathan. While visiting a cannabis consumption lounge, Amy suffered a traumatic experience. That event birthed the idea for a new business called Lit Smart. In this episode, we hear the origin story for Lit Smart, how she’s approached launching a concierge cannabis EMS provider service, challenges she’s facing, and advice any entrepreneur in cannabis will find of value.
Origin of Lit Smart
Lit Smart provides staffing, training, and servers with emergency management and harm reduction skills for cannabis events. From the getlitsmart.com the website state:
As cannabis becomes more socially accepted, consumption lounges and events are popping up everywhere. Most often those partaking do so without incident. However, overconsumption threatens the safety of both the new canna-curious and veteran cannaseurs (1) as they experiment with more potent, quick-onset products and new devices. We are here because we are passionate about the effects of this plant, but there are unintended consequences of overdoing it. We all feel the tension and the risks to growing our businesses and industry leave us exposed. (2) Everyone fears overconsumption gone bad without an obvious solution, until now…LitSmart provides onsite EMS oversight and harm reduction coaching to ease the experience of overconsumption.
Lit Smart’s tag line is “Stay safe, get lit, be smart.”
