Sam and Candy sit down with Monique Swansen, founder of Automated Accounting Services and Accounting for Green, to talk about what it really takes to build and sustain a firm. Monique breaks down the realities of serving cannabis operators (hello, seed-to-sale and inventory), why hiring before you think you need to can save your sanity, and how short-term disability and cross-training became essential after real team crises. They get candid about pricing like you already have a team, documenting everything, and rethinking advisory so you’re not chained to nonstop calls. They also tackle the AI hype, capacity ebbs, ideal clients, and the power of community in an industry that can feel isolating.
