Our Strategy for Marijuana Companies

The marijuana business is tough. There are many facets of your business that you need to take care of on a daily basis. It can be difficult to focus on your marketing, let alone your website and digital marketing strategy. There is a lot to consider when it comes to marketing: Having a well-designed website that is easy to use, making sure it can be found by people using search engines, and constant blogging and social media updates to stay current. All this can be overwhelming, which is where we come in. We have been providing digital marketing and SEO services for many years.

Our Strategy for Marijuana Companies

We are well aware of the unique situation marijuana businesses face when it comes to marketing: An online marketing strategy is essential, but many business owners just don’t have the time takes to create and sustain a long-term plan. You have likely heard of search engine optimization (SEO). You may be wondering if it worth it to work with a digital marketing and SEO company. Before we go into how we help businesses like yours grow, let’s look at an insightful statistic:

75% of users never scroll past the first page of search results.

It is crucial for MJ companies and other business who rely on local searches to rank on the first page of search engine results. We began researching specific strategies for optimizing MJ websites so that they will rank higher in searches, and implement these strategies for a greater ROI for our customers. There are a few essentials when it comes to online marketing for MJ Companies:

Establish Trust

The cannabis industry gets a bad rap, so it’s important that your website establishes trust the second a potential customer visits. There are multiple ways to establish trust, including consistent logo design, well-written content, and clean, easy to use design. We work hard to present your businesses respectability and trustworthiness.

Keyword Research

There is no point in having a great website if it is optimized for the wrong keywords. We perform in-depth keyword research so we know what searchers are looking for in their search to find dispensaries or other MJ businesses in their area. We find the best locations and keywords so that you get conversions and the greatest return on your investment

Ongoing Marketing

Another way to establish trust and bring traffic to your website is to utilize social media and blogging. We provide quality content that will answer the questions your customers are asking, which will generate more traffic for your website and business. We are knowledgeable with social media platforms such as Facebook, Google+, Twitter, and many more.

There are many factors that go into search engine optimization (SEO). This includes link building, good web design, local optimization, quality content, keyword and image optimization, and much more.

Let’s Dive In

Now What?

We all know advertising in the MJ industry is hard so we don’t need to talk about those problems. You know the challenges, and you’ve likely experienced them painfully and acutely. We have too. We all know commodification of the industry reduces profits. We also don’t need to wax lyrical about the benefits of online marketing either. You’re here because you know how important it is. We do too. Read on to learn more about our thoughts on the matter – or reach out and we can formulate a strategy to secure lasting sales and growth for your business.

What's best for MJ Businesses Online?

Do you ask your customers how they found you, or where they heard about you? You should. Don’t worry if you’re not though, because we’ve already collected the data from our customers and the campaigns we run for them to determine where their customers come from. We have tools that precisely track where customers are coming from and can directly attribute sales to the marketing initiatives that drove them. Here are the top 4 sources of business from asking – How did you find/hear about us?

Proximity

Answers: I’m just down the street. I live nearby. I’m staying nearby.
You’re the closest dispensary for a lot of people, so you win many local clients by default. Your regulars are the backbone of your business and your staff know many of them by name. If there are a lot of AirBnB’s or hotels nearby you may also automatically win tourist business.

Location

Answers: I drive by every day. I was just passing by. I was shopping next door at ______.
Passerbys, Commuters, and Tourists on foot or driving by see your business and decide to come in. The adage location, location, location is as relevant for MJ businesses as any other.

Online

Answers: On Google. On social media (where allowed). On weedmaps. On leafly.
Your regulars may have found you originally from an online search. The lifetime customer value of a “regular” can be huge – it’s critical locals find you and pick you over other local dispensaries. Prospective new customers are constantly searching online to find a dispensary too. In fact, we can show you the exact number of people in your area looking every month! We’ll talk more about this below.

Referral / Reputation

Answers: A friend told me about this place.
Every customer you have is an opportunity to create more customers. You don’t have to turn your customers into ambassadors, though that’s great too, but actively managing your reputation internally and externally is critical to long term success. Manage your reputation internally by creating great customer experiences in store. Manage it externally by leveraging tools online to build and expose that reputation. More on that below as well.

Okay, so we know where customers come from. Now what?

Getting Found Online

Imagine you’re a prospective MJ customer. You’re a tourist out and about and want to visit a dispensary, or maybe you’ve had a bad experience at the location closest to your house and you want to try something new. You pull your phone out of your pocket, pull up a browser or map app, and type in one of a handful of possible combinations of words to see what’s around. A list of results appear on your phone.

How do you choose where to go?

  1. You’ll look at the closest locations that come up on the top of the list.
  2. You’ll instantly see the location with the most reviews and highest review rating.
  3. You may read a few reviews to see what people are saying.
  4. You may click a website link and scan through the site to get a feel for the business and what they have.
  5. From the website maybe you’ll click through to social media and see what people are saying.
  6. Maybe you’ll even call a few top locations real quick and ask about pricing or selection.

Satisfied with any or all of the above, you’ll decide where to go.

That’s about it… those 6 possible criteria cover the VAST majority of information an online prospect will use to decide whether to visit you or not! And many MJ prospects will probably only do #1 and #2. These searches are happening around your business all day every day.

So as a MJ business the priorities are clear and simple:


  • Make sure you’re business shows up in the top few results.
  • Make sure you’ve got a lot of good reviews.
  • Make sure you’ve got a good website.
  • Make sure you’ve got a good social media presence.
  • Make sure you’ve got competitive offerings.

Your Reputation

Outside of acquiring customers through search, the other big ways MJ businesses drive sales is by driving engagement and having a great reputation. These are almost the same thing. If you have lots of positive and responsive engagements with customers in store and online, your reputation will be great and customers will tell their friends about you. So step one is having great customer service or internal rep management.

Step two is leveraging and exposing that positive engagement in order to grow, this is external rep management. Most businesses don’t marry their customer service strategy to a reputation management strategy and that’s a big missed opportunity. There are a ton of ways to build your rep in the store, online, and with our online tools. We can help you put a system in place to make sure all the pieces connect seamlessly.

So internally you should be collecting customer information, and externally you should be emailing, texting, and giving shout outs on social media to drive engagement and gather reviews. We’ve got tools to automate and integrate all of the above into one sales driving solution.
HEY! Let’s not forget the synergy between your reputation and how discoverable you are online!

Let's do another thought experiment.

You are a potential customer. You search for a dispensary in any of the following cities. Take a look a the map results, consider what we talked about above. Who do you choose? Oh, one more thing… on the maps below, pay attention to the little red dots that don’t have names. Those red dots are other MJ businesses that didn’t make the cut in Google’s eyes. If that’s you… contact us right away. If you look at the numbers or ratings below and think you could never compete with entrenched competitors – think again. We’ve taken clients from 12 reviews to 260+ in less than six months with our campaigns.

Despite downtown LA being the heart of a major metropolitan area there’s a clear winner here. Wonderland takes the cake with an overwhelming number of total reviews on top of a very strong rating! We’re surprised Shivas and DBCD have so few reviews in such a populated area. They have some serious catching up to do. Come on guys!

This one is a little tighter. Obviously we’re not going to Chalice Farms. Depending on where we’re at we could go with Rose or Serra. On numbers alone though Serra is the winner.

Another landslide here! While all of these companies are doing a great job Have a Heart is killing it with the highest rating and almost 5 times the total reviews of the next map listing. We want to go here just to see what everyone is raving about.

Let's do another thought experiment.

Start by entering your info in the “How is my business performing online?” at the top of this page, our parent company For The Web will scan your website and provide you with a free comprehensive report detailing the state and health of your digital presence.
Take some time to review the report. We have solutions to address any and all weaknesses!
We’ll review the snapshot internally and reach out with suggestions.
