Email them.

you can ask the budtender if the owners about, but the odds of them dropping everything to come and say Hi to you is 0%.. your best bet are andy from from voyagers, or Nel he knows hes shit worked at cannabis collage and other amazing places maybe paradox you could get a good chat with the buddealer, maybe say hi to simon at hunters (but watch out you might get served by the wanker). it might be worth meeting up with some ACD member that are in dam. id rate them higher than everyone else.. we have some amazing growers here ..

Thank you very much for the info! Sure would help a lot! If you think something else pls let me know..
Who are the ACD members?

To be honest I'd say they have seen your email and simply deleted it along with all the other ambiguous mail they get daily. As an introduction for a possible business venture, it sucks. Having read it and your questions on here I'm doubtful you have anything they want. However, as advice I suggest the first thing you do is find out their names, then get yer idea together in a professional form and take it to the shops in person when your here. Goodluk, I think you'll need it.

Thank you very much for the advice
I know it's difficult but I will try because I think my proposal is worth

Unfortunately I can not write more detail ....
and of course I will have it with me and will present it if I could get them an appointment.
their names how to KNOW ¨?

In a spot like this it is legwork, persistance and eventually salesmanship that will get you what you want. Like many 'scenes' as an outsider it is not always easy to break into so quickly.

Anyhow good luck with your quest.

That is wisdom.
Though if I may be so bold- that should be "most if not all spots like this..."
And I also wish you good luck.

This may sound asshole-ish, but my intentions are good. If you want to get people's attention via email, you need to improve your English(assuming the email was written like these posts.) It's snobbish and unfair(especially if English isn't your native language), but people judge your ideas by the form they're expressed in. Improper punctuation, wrong spelling, overly familiar expressions and syntax, etc. are enough to get your email deleted on sight, especially if the recipient gets lots of email and needs to prioritize.

Speaking in person would probably be your best bet, but ask yourself this: is your suggestion really that good? Coffeeshop owners have a lot to deal with: supply, taxes, payroll, inspections, the upcoming Wietpas, etc. and so it's gonna need to be a really damn brilliant idea for them to even consider it when they've got so much else on their plate. If it really is such a revolutionary idea, good luck. Just keep in mind that there are hundreds of thousands of stoners across the world who think they've got a brilliant idea that will revolutionize the pot industry so you'll need to convince the coffeeshop owners(and budtenders, since that's who you'll need to impress to even get to speak with the manager) that you're not just one of them.

first of all you are not rude and I want to thank you for the advice and the time you've spent for all of this.


You have absolutely right for all ... I don't know very well to speak English and I know this is a serious problem.
I still believe it is worth to try. I'm stoned a lot of years but i'm not a dreamer, i know exαctly what hapent in amsterdam and the pollicy of coffee shops. they are interesting for
profit and I believe my proposal is worth.i'm thinking to travel with a friend of mine that his speaks much better than me.
my point is to meet the owners...
