Default New Colorado dispensary: advice?
Hey,

I am considering opening a dispensary in Colorado (Nederland, to be specific). I was wondering if there are any Colorado dispensary owners out there who are willing to give me some advice.

Does anybody have a conservative estimate for startup costs? I am going to start small and focus on cheap prices and good medicine. I have heard 20k at the minimum but I was thinking I could get away with 10k (I already have 15,000 watts and everything to support a grow that size). Do you think this is possible?

I am taking a class in a few weeks related to opening a dispensary and I've set up appointments to meet with lawyers and accountants familiar with this type of business.

On average how much do established dispensaries sell on a weekly basis? I have toured existing clinics in denver and fort collins so I know going rates for med clinics. Most places have doctors on staff a few times a month to enroll patients, right? I assumed this is how many new clients are enrolled.

I have found one, are there many other Colorado specific programs designed to hook patients up with caregivers?

Any other advice or known roadblocks I'll have to cross?

Thanks!

EDIT: Wow, I just noticed the post I was reading about Colorado dispensaries is recent and is on the same page. Delete this if you want but I feel as if I have asked a few questions not answered in the other post (though I'm not sure I read it all, it went off topic hardcore for a bit).
