Banks Management Group logo About

A standard set under real pressure.

Banks Management Group LLC is a Colorado-based business consulting firm built for startups and growing small businesses.

Where It Comes From

More than a decade inside cannabis.

BMG's approach is grounded in more than a decade of hands-on operating experience — building brands, running operations, closing deals, and leading teams inside the cannabis industry, one of the most highly regulated and fastest-moving sectors in business.

That experience in compliance, licensing, sales, negotiation, and leadership translates directly to startups and small businesses in any industry. The discipline it takes to launch and scale under that level of complexity works just as well for a service business, a SaaS startup, or a consumer brand anywhere else.

How We Work

An embedded partner, not a detached advisor.

BMG isn't a consultant who hands over a slide deck and walks away. We operate alongside founders — in sales conversations, at the negotiating table, inside the org chart, and in the systems that run the business day to day.

That standard was set operating inside cannabis — one of the most demanding regulatory and competitive environments in business — and it now serves startups and small businesses across every industry, backed by direct, current experience with the systems, software, and AI tools businesses run on today.

Leadership

Christopher Banks

Founder & Managing Partner

Christopher Banks founded Banks Management Group after more than a decade building brands, running operations, and closing deals inside the cannabis industry. He leads BMG's consulting engagements directly — from sales strategy and systems design to deal negotiation and executive coaching.

A Note on Scope

Thought leadership, not just practice.

BMG's team shapes industry standards through speaking, training, and regulatory advisory work — reinforcing its role not only as a practitioner but as a thought leader in the categories it serves.

Every engagement is governed by a formal consulting agreement with clearly defined scope, deliverables, IP protections, and invoicing terms. BMG supports both remote and on-site work, with terms agreed upon in advance.
