The person behind AVNU
Aaron Avram
Business Development Manager, North America
Dutch Leaf Cones
Building growth across B2B markets where trust, timing, technical understanding and follow-through matter.
- B2B sales growth
- Distribution strategy
- Regulated, technical & SaaS markets
Background & approach
New markets.
Lasting relationships.
My background spans regulated cannabis and nicotine products, heavy equipment, industrial manufacturing, distribution and SaaS. Across those industries, the common thread has been business development: finding the right buyers, opening new accounts, managing complex sales cycles and turning market opportunities into revenue.
At Dutch Leaf, I focus on North American market development, distribution strategy, account growth and brand visibility within the cannabis and pre-roll supply chain. My work includes prospecting operators, manufacturers, brands, distributors and retail partners, then qualifying where Dutch Leaf can create real commercial value.
Before Dutch Leaf, I built experience across several sales environments: managing 300–500+ B2B accounts, exceeding distribution and revenue targets, selling SaaS solutions to SMBs, and closing long-cycle industrial equipment deals into mining, tunneling, infrastructure and manufacturing markets. I’ve worked with technical proposals, multi-SKU portfolios, CRM systems, outreach automation, pricing strategy, client education and territory growth.
I’m at my best when I’m building from the ground up: mapping markets, identifying decision-makers, creating pipeline, earning trust and moving opportunities from first conversation to signed business. I bring a mix of hunter-style prospecting, consultative selling and practical account management, with a strong bias toward measurable growth.
Open to connecting with people in cannabis, nicotine, CPG, manufacturing, SaaS, distribution and B2B sales who are building new markets, stronger channels or smarter revenue systems.
