Consider using social media to share videos that will boost your marijuana marketing efforts.

The following may be suitable for your followers and fans:

  •  
  • Growth videos that show the process of the flower and other marijuana products that are grown and dispensed at your store.
  •  
  • Explainer videos that help prospective clients understand how marijuana works and what it can be used to treat.
  •  
  • Behind the scenes videos that showcase what it’s like to be a part of your dispensary.
  •  
  • Corporate culture videos that represent your brand.
  •  
  • Customer testimonials representing past client satisfaction.

#2 Live Stream Events

  •

Marijuana marketing with the local Chamber of Commerce requires registration but upon your successful registry with the Chamber, you will receive updates on events and various opportunities to get your brand recognized and the Chamber will work with you to develop a stronger reputation with your community.

Consider networking with local providers that can prescribe medical marijuana in your area as well. Doctors or other professionals that have the ability to prescribe legal use of marijuana for states that do not allow recreational use represents an ideal opportunity for dispensaries to promote their brands, products and services.

#4 Produce Animated Explainer Videos to Simplify Your Product Uses

Medical marijuana is relatively new and a lot of people are unsure as to how effective it is or how it can be used to treat common ailments. Animated explainer videos and tutorials can be used to help you educate your audience and demonstrate your expertise in the marijuana industry.
