NEW YORK and BOSTON, June 9, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Sara Gullickson, VP of Sales & Marketing, MariMed Advisors (a subsidiary of Worlds Online) (OTCQB: WORX), will be a featured speaker at The Cannabis World Congress & Business Exposition 2015 that runs from June 17-19 at the Javits Center in NYC.

She will share insights on how to grow your brand keeping industry barriers in mind while utilizing regulatory compliance as your secret weapon to blow your competitors out of the water.
"I see so many companies using the 'shotgun approach' without any real strategy behind it, as well as outside entrepreneurs trying to play in the space without fully understanding the industry idiosyncrasies," observed Gullickson. "I believe the compliance regulations create opportunities for the people that have pioneered this industry and for those who have taken the time to truly understand the legal landscape. Taking a tactical strategic approach, facility operators can not only leverage compliance to their advantage but use it to elevate the industry as a whole."
Gullickson, the co-chair of Women Grow-Phoenix Chapter and also Executive Director of MariMed subsidiary DispensaryPermits.com, has more than five years of experience as a leader in the medical marijuana (MMJ) industry and nearly a decade of experience strategizing and executing online and traditional marketing campaigns for the health, beauty, medical, dental, fitness and spa industries.
