Best Way To Market & Price 280k Cannabis Consumer Records (80% NY State)?

Best Way to Market & Price 280k Cannabis Consumer Records (80% NY State)?

I’ve got a cleaned, permissioned dataset from a prior cannabis retail business: ~278–282k consumer profiles with purchase history (SKUs bought, frequency, spend bands), product preferences, timestamps, and opt-in/consent records.

Geographic split: ~80% of profiles are from New York State, ~20% from other U.S. states (with compliant, adult-use purchase history). All profiles granted permission for their data to be used/sold when collected.

I’m looking for real-world advice on: 1. Where to list/sell — reputable data marketplaces or brokers (LiveRamp, Snowflake, AvocaData, direct brokers)? 2. Buyer types — who actually pays for this kind of cannabis purchase-behavior data (brands, MSOs, dispensaries, distributors, ad platforms, analysts)? 3. Compliance checks — what proof of consent, CCPA/CPRA, NY State privacy compliance, opt-out mechanisms, and audit trails do buyers need to see? 4. Data format — hashed identifiers vs. plaintext PII, sample rows, schema, enrichment — what do buyers prefer? 5. Pricing ballpark — per-profile, per-record, or subscription models you’ve seen for transactional consumer datasets in a regulated industry? 6. State-specific issues — given that most data is NY-based, are there particular ad/marketing restrictions I should disclose?

What I can provide to vetted buyers right away:

• Schema + 100-row sample (no PII in public sample).

• Consent logs (timestamps and collection language).

• Basic enrichment (ZIP, age bands, spend tiers).

• Delivery via hashed identifiers (SHA256/HMAC) or raw CSV depending on buyer preference.

• NDA + data use agreement and proof of secure hosting (S3/private transfer).

Would love to hear from anyone who has bought or sold similar datasets: specific marketplaces, broker contacts, or pricing ranges you’d recommend. Also open to intros to compliance/legal shops that pre-audit datasets for data buyers, I know that speeds up the sales process and boosts valuation.

Thanks! I want to do this cleanly and legally, especially with the NY-heavy dataset. DM or comment if you’ve got leads.
