Membership begins with a 30 minute Zoom meeting with Addison Morris, the founder and CEO, to learn what your career and business needs and goals are and how WCCC can help you achieve them.

The Women’s Cannabis Chamber of Commerce (WCCC) comprises a network of women engaged in diverse careers and businesses across all sectors of the cannabis industry. Each member possesses specialized knowledge that can benefit others within the organization. It is recognized that even established careers and businesses may encounter periods of stagnation. Through the Leadership Program, members are connected with peers possessing expertise relevant to their specific challenges, offering insights and potential resolutions. These consultations, typically lasting 60 minutes and involving two or more advisors, can significantly accelerate career or business growth, or facilitate a successful redirection. Participation in the Leadership Program is open to all members, both as advisors and as those seeking counsel, resources, or connections.

The Women’s Cannabis Chamber of Commerce employs an innovative strategy to highlight and promote women within the cannabis industry and their respective businesses, while also offering essential business guidance to fellow entrepreneurs.

Cannabis ClipNotes is conceptually derived from “Cliffs Notes,” a series of publications providing summaries and fundamental analyses of literary works, originally intended as study aids.

Cannabis ClipNotes are not interviews, but rather 15-minute informational videos showcasing a company and its expertise.

An introductory segment of approximately two to three minutes comprises the elevator pitch for the business, presented by Addison Morris, Founder and CEO of the Women’s Cannabis Chamber of Commerce. The content for this introduction is sourced from the company website, LinkedIn profile, or can be independently authored. It is recommended that the marketing team draft this introduction.

Participants are required to deliver 12 minutes of essential information on a subject reflective of their expertise, relative to their business, services, or products. ClipNotes serve to spotlight individuals and further establish them as authorities in their respective fields. The 12-minute presentation personalizes and humanizes the services offered. Authenticity resonates with potential clients. The incorporation of a presentation within the ClipNotes is strongly encouraged. The company logo will be displayed in the upper corner of the ClipNotes.

Cannabis ClipNotes is structured as a four-part series for each member, necessitating careful planning of topics and materials.

ClipNotes are pre-recorded and subsequently scheduled for live broadcast. Pre-recording allows members to schedule recording sessions at their convenience. Members may record all four ClipNotes in a single session or individually. Allocate 20 minutes for each recording session. Upon completion of recording, a link is provided to the presenter for review. Video editing or re-recording can be accommodated to ensure satisfaction before posting.

ClipNotes are broadcasted on the Women’s Cannabis Chamber of Commerce’s LinkedIn, Facebook Pages  and YouTube channel. Members have the option to simultaneously stream their ClipNotes to their own social media platforms.

It is recommended that the four Cannabis ClipNotes be scheduled within the first 45 days of membership.

Individual Cannabis ClipNotes are made available on the member’s dedicated page within the WCCC video business directory.

Members preparing to launch and startups can apply for the Mentoring Program. The Mentoring program includes two one hour Mentoring meetings with three-four members per month for three months. 

The Mentorship Program is available to members in the pre-launch and startup phases. It offers two one-hour mentorship sessions per month for a duration of three months, with a participation of three to four members in each session. One individual is selected per quarter. Mentors are rotated for each session to address the specific requirements of each business development stage. The success of the participant is conditional upon their diligent effort and active participation
