How TDC Works

Co-founder AKB describes TDC memberships as "No fees, no requirements, and obligations - unless you want them. People who put in more time and effort to boost the TDC platform receive membership badges, which essentially put you at the top of the list for free marketing pushes, call for collaborations, networking events, and project opportunities. Other than some budtender groups, most platforms with memberships make you drop hundreds of dollars to be a part of something significant in the cannabis space - that cuts down accessibility so much it hurts. We've volunteered a lot of time to build something that could have been useful to us when we started our endeavors and career development plans. Because of this model, we can help any and all members as best as we can for free, creating a truly innovative and compassionate business model. In contrast to how our memberships work, we charge for the TDC name to be used on large collaborators or "clients." This ensures all of the power, financial compensation, and full recognition goes back to the person or team hired out - we don't take a percentage from TDC members' hard-earned money; we turn to the large business to pay out a percentage, on top of the established charge as compensation for using our network to their benefit."

TDC collaborations begin like any other recruitment firm - with the exception of badge members receiving priority for new opportunities. First, an external party contacts TDC, and the leadership team (Tom, AKB, James Ouimet, & Francis Hall) meet to understand the overview and requirements for the project. Afterward, a recommendations file is sent based on pre-interviewed and pre-qualified candidates to ensure the best fit is found for both parties. From there, the client selects the best applicant, and the job begins!
