Leading Cannabis Educational Platform, Green Flower, Expands Executive Team With the Appointment of Will Petruski as Vice President of Sales


Former Arcview Group Executive to Spearhead Company’s New Revenue Initiatives

LOS ANGELES, July 17, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NetworkWire: Green Flower, the nation’s leading cannabis educational streaming platform, is expanding its executive roster with the appointment of former Arcview Group Sales Executive, Will Petruski, to Vice President of Sales.

Reporting directly to Max Simon, CEO of Green Flower, Petruski will be responsible for overseeing and implementing Green Flower’s revenue generating activities. In this role, Petruski will work closely with Simon to create partnerships through a variety of newly established revenue channels including: sponsored programming for Green Flower’s world-class video content; Green Flower “Showcases,” for cannabis entrepreneurs and businesses seeking new marketing avenues to exhibit their cannabis products or services; and develop new methodologies designed to grow Green Flower’s enterprise sales programs.

“Will Petruski brings with him over 25-years of B2B sales experience,” noted Simon. “His wealth of experience and unparalleled sales perspective bring incredible value to our company.  His marketing and leadership skills are perfect to construct the strategic sales initiatives and programs we’ve implemented which will support so many flourishing cannabis companies who suffer from the recent lack of viable marketing and promotional avenues.”

Petruski joins Green Flower from his recent position as Vice President of Sales at the Arcview Group.  During his tenure at the Arcview Group, Arcview’s Investor Network grew to more than 600 accredited investors who deployed more than $190 million to over 100 cannabis-related start-ups throughout the world. Prior to Arcview, Petruski worked as Vice-President of Sales for 360Training.com, a leading online and classroom-delivered eLearning marketplace. Petruski has also held leadership positions with the New York Institute of Finance, The Economist and Skillsoft. 

“As the recognized leader in ‘Trusted Cannabis Knowledge,’ Green Flower is the distinct resource for cannabis information and education,” observed Petruski. “Green Flower represents a thrilling convergence of my passions. As a proponent of life-long learning and the transformational power of knowledge, I see Green Flower dramatically improving individual lives as well as increasing the efficacy of organizational performance. As investors and seasoned professionals from other sectors move into the cannabis space, a trusted source of information like Green Flower becomes absolutely critical. I look forward to working with Max and the entire Green Flower team to introduce the marketing programs we've developed, resulting in new partnerships which ultimately will expand the company's revenue channels.”
