M&A Advisory Firm | Strike Partners

About Strike Partners

Strike Partners is a boutique M&A advisory firm built to help cannabis founders navigate the exit process with clarity, confidence, and real results.

We work closely with owner-operators across the cannabis supply chain—from cultivators to multi-state operators—to maximize the value of what they've built and ensure they get paid what they deserve. With over $400M+ in term sheets secured and dozens of transactions successfully closed, we bring deep experience, trusted buyer relationships, and a sharp eye for execution.

Our track record spans the country. From the West Coast to the East Coast, we’ve guided exceptional founders through their first exit, carveouts, and full-company sales—many in markets where deals are hard to get done.

What makes us different is how we show up: hands-on, aligned, and focused on outcomes that actually matter. We take on a limited number of clients so we can go deep, move fast, and deliver the kind of process and guidance that makes a difference when the stakes are high.

If you’re considering a sale—now or down the line—and want a real perspective on your options, we’re here for a straight conversation. No pressure. Just a chance to explore if there’s a smart path forward, together.

Let’s talk.

Our Mission

At Strike Partners we take the friction, formality, and fluff out of selling a business. We guide founders through high-stakes exits with sharp strategy, straight talk, and relentless execution. No bullshit. No recycled pitch decks. Just real results, done right.

We aim to reshape how cannabis operators experience M&A—less posturing, more outcomes. We’re building a firm where deals don’t die in process, egos don’t get in the way, and founders walk away with the outcome they actually wanted.

Our Vision

Real Deals. Real Buyers. Real Outcomes.

Our Founder's Story

David Kram

I didn’t go to an Ivy League school.
Didn’t spend years pretending to “grind” in a bullpen.
Didn’t climb the ranks of some bloated investment bank playing the politics game.

I was told I was a terrible analyst.
Couldn’t model. "Used my mouse too much."
Didn’t have “what it takes” to make it in banking.

So I left.
Started from zero.
No brand name.
No handouts.
Just sheer determination.

And I built Strike Partners from scratch—
Closed my first deals solo.
Made my first million working for myself.
Now I run one of the most exclusive M&A advisory firms for cannabis operators looking to exit on top.

I don’t pitch. I close.
I don’t talk theory. I live in the trenches.
And I’m not for everyone.

But if you're a founder with a company worth selling—and you're tired of the fluff, delays, and wannabe advisors—
I’m the one you call when you want to get the deal done.

Let’s get you the exit you deserve.

Founder. No-BS Dealmaker.
