About Us

Meet Cannabis Industry Connector - Nancy Birnbaum. Nancy has been combining her love of life, adventure travel, marketing, & arts and culture with business... the business of Cannabis. With her master’s degree in Social Psychology / Organizational Development ((Human Potential & Personal Transformation), Nancy believes that it's all about relationships. Maybe it's her engaging & adventuresome personality, along with her sense of humor and passion for life, that has helped so many businesses become successful and THRIVE!

As a Mentor with the Founder Institute's first Cannabis Cohort (San Francisco), she worked with many Founders to help launch existing brands. Now as an Advisor to several of these startups, she continues to bring her relationship-building skills to help them succeed.

A lifelong entrepreneur, Nancy has earned a living in a diverse number of fields from Publishing, and Marketing/PR to Travel, Healthcare, and the Marine Industry.

Nancy is a digital nomad, who along with her husband/co-captain, recently completed a 3-year sail on her Leopard 40 catamaran, S/V Sweet Escape, cruising the Caribbean, Bahamas, and the U.S. East Coast, with her Co-Captain and Husband.

You can follow her at nancybirnbaum.com and @SailSweetEscape. Her cruising blog and links to her published articles are available at nancybirnbaum.com.

How We Got Started

In the beginning there was "Women's CBD" (Women's Cannabis Business Development!) and we came together to support each other in a very difficult, fledgling Legal industry. Next there was Sensi. As Founding Publisher and Market Director for the California edition of Sensi Magazine, Nancy built a massive community and served in many roles: Mentor, Advisor, Event Producer, Advertising Sales, Marketing & PR Professional, Speaker, Educator, and Connector.

(more) With a nod to all those who replied stating that a business owner shouldn't base marketing decisions on cost... this is clearly a tough time for all small businesses and cost can be THE deciding factor. Given the current climate, I would recommend looking at GeoTargeting advertising, which allows a business to target a very specific consumer, based on age, gender, location, behaviors (think: wellness, athletics, alcohol, other interests), or to drive loyalty. Sensi has just launched our new Digital product line that includes excellent (low) pricing on GeoFencing. Get in touch and let's find a solution that works for your budget (even limited ones!).

(more) Sensi Magazine is about Shifting the Culture around Cannabis. As a national media company, Sensi takes pride in our company culture. Here are the 7 pillars of the Sensi Culture: HumilityWe are not perfect. We acknowledge our strengths as well as our weaknesses, and we leave our ego out of it. We have the perspective to see the truth in every interaction, and this enables us to root out the bad to accelerate the good. It keeps us on track as we go after our goals. And go after them we do, with all our heart. ______________________ Growth  We are all about progression. As entrepreneur Jim Rohn, whom I deeply admire, once said, if you’re not progressing, you’re regressing. We strive for progress in our business and in ourselves, both personally and professionally. We do not rest on our laurels, do not coast. We push forward in the good times and we push even harder in the not-so-good times. We work hard to grow Sensi into a formidable media conglomerate. ______________________ Warrior’s Resolve We are determined. We face our challenges and our successes with a winning attitude; we own them and handle ourselves with dignity. We understand that its not always going to be easy but we submit to the adventure of building something new and fresh into something great and thriving. We do what it takes to make incredible things happen, we stay nimble, and we lay it all on the line. ______________________ Giving Spirit We add value. We eschew the typical “me first” mentality that is so prevalent in business, so our relationships are not built solely on our bottom line. At Sensi, we are most concerned with the cause: Shift the Culture. We seek to help other businesses and individuals who are alined with our mission—regardless of any monetary gain. ______________________ Understanding Heart We trust one another. We understand that we all make mistakes; we are all human. But we do not place blame, do not look for who is at fault when a situation arises. We remain committed to what we do as we stand beside one another and take collective responsibility. We discuss issues with our team members and determine how to best move forward together. ______________________ Community Mind We are involved. We are not just faceless entrepreneurs making calls from our desks; we are activists doing what it takes to move our issues forward. We are members of organizations that tie to our mission to Shift the Culture. We sit on boards and committees, we volunteer our time—all to drive the change we wish to see both in our communities and around the world. ______________________ Fun-Loving Focus We play together. Because, as the saying goes, the team that plays together, stays together. Our employees are our most important customers, and if they’re not having fun, not absolutely loving their jobs and the teams with which they work, what’s really the point? We foster our happy vibe through annual trips, local outings, and other events that strengthen our bond and our unity. This allows each of us to be not just an ambassador of the Sensi culture but a staunch protector of the team spirit.  http://www.sensimag.com/pages/...
