What challenges do dispensaries usually face before working with you?
“Invisible” online presence - many dispensaries are struggling online, given that Google and Meta have some pretty tight advertising restrictions. Some common issues will be:
1.Ad Disapprovals & Account Suspensions: Navigating the minefield of cannabis compliance.
2.Stagnant Organic Traffic: Inability to rank for 'dispensary near me' search queries.
3.Discount Trap: This refers to basing business decisions entirely or heavily upon promoting discounts, which negatively affects the bottom-line results.
4.Data Fragmentation: Having a lot of data but no clear information about which marketing channel contributes to revenue.
