    About this Episode

    In today’s rapidly changing business landscape, the imperative for regulated companies is clear: harness the power of data analytics or risk falling behind. 

    Failing to gather customer data, or worse, not knowing how to properly utilize it is a critical misstep for businesses in regulated industries like cannabis, CBD, or alcohol. Don’t let your competition outpace you!

    There’s a growing need for cannabis and alcohol businesses to expand their data scope beyond basic demographic info — phone numbers, emails, and purchase history — with consumer behavior datasets to provide a more nuanced understanding of customer preferences. Cannabis customer data enrichment or second party data enrichment services can elevate your customer data from merely informative to truly insightful. 

    Generating a more enhanced view of your consumers allows companies to better target cannabis and alcohol consumers who are actively seeking specific products or services, amplifying the return on investment for advertising campaigns and dramatically enhancing the customer experience. 

    During the webinar, you will learn:

    • What customer data enrichment is, and why it is important
    • How CRM data enrichment improves customer experiences and real-world use cases you can implement today!
    • How to select and vet data enrichment companies and tips for determining data quality

    Learn how to deliver truly exceptional cannabis customer experiences that improve the ROAS of your display, paid search, and SEO campaigns. The modern business environment demands a sophisticated approach to data analytics and customer engagement. Don’t get left behind!

    High Impact Mid-Funnel Marketing Tactics For Cannabis ECommerce Brands with Angela Pih

    High Impact Mid-Funnel Marketing Tactics For Cannabis ECommerce Brands with Angela Pih

    What Is MOF and Why Is It Crucial in Cannabis Marketing?

    The middle of the funnel, often referred to as MOF, is a crucial stage in the buyer’s journey and a point where many cannabis businesses fall short. You may have successfully driven traffic to your webpage, but what happens next? What are you offering prospective customers when they land on your site? Is it easy to navigate and make a purchase? How are you nurturing visitors if they leave?

    The MOF is where trust is built by establishing deeper relationships with audiences that have shown interest in your brand. This is the essence of a strong MOF cannabis marketing strategy. By ensuring your website easily highlights your products or services, provides trust-building content, and creates a sense of urgency, you can propel visitors to take the next step in their buyer’s journey, boost sales, and keep customers loyal.

    In our webinar, Angela Pih, Marketing Innovator / CMO / Brand Storyteller, walks you through high-impact mid-funnel marketing strategies for cannabis businesses. These strategies aim to improve conversion rates, reduce cost per acquisition, and create seamless customer journeys that result in more complete and satisfying customer experiences.

    During the webinar, you will learn:

    • How to build deeper relationships with your audience segments and propel them to purchase
    • Top KPIs to track for optimizing your MOF cannabis marketing strategy
    • Where most cannabis businesses fail in what is mid-funnel marketing
    • Advertising tips for retargeting customers who have engaged with your content

    Why Is Building Trust Important in Cannabis Mid-Funnel Marketing?

    The middle of the funnel is a make-or-break stage for cannabis businesses. It’s not just about driving traffic to your site; it’s about what you do with that traffic once it’s there. From easy navigation to compelling offers, every element should be designed to build trust and guide prospective customers closer to making a purchase.

    So, are you ready to transform your mid-funnel marketing strategies and elevate your cannabis business to the next level? Join us!

    Bubbles and a Buzz: The Business of Cannabis Beverages with Ave Miller of Uncle Arnie’s and Rodney Boast of Ray’s Lemonade

    Bubbles and a Buzz: The Business of Cannabis Beverages with Ave Miller of Uncle Arnie’s and Rodney Boast of Ray’s Lemonade

    Can you think of a time you went out on the town and didn’t have a drink in your hand? With the rise in popularity of non-alcoholic beverages and bars, cannabis drinks are poised to shake up the beverage landscape.

    Cannabis bev companies have made leaps and bounds in the past few years using nano-emulsification technology to create more consistent dosing and better tasting, fast-acting products.

    Non-combustible products will pave the way for newcomers and offer a more socially acceptable way to enjoy the benefits of our favorite plant. After all, it is the fastest-growing product segment. (BDSA noted that cannabis beverages had 64% growth last year and 27% growth quarter over quarter.)

    But with only 1% of consumers claiming cannabis drinks as their preferred method of consumption, there is no doubt this product segment has a long yet promising road ahead.

    Joined by Ave Miller, Co-Founder of Uncle Arnies, and Rodney Boast, Co-Owner and COO of Ray’s Lemonade, to give the lay of the beverage land and discuss the hurdles this product segment has yet to overcome, how retailers can better support brands, and how startups will hold their ground against big beverage giants. So join us and get an insider view of what it takes to build a cannabis beverage brand and the loyal customer base required to drive revenue.

    During the webinar, you will learn about:
    • Low dose vs. high dose - what will be successful in the long-term
    • Shifting buyer mindsets and consumer education programs
    • Why retailers should end the “gas station model” and shift to an authentic retail experience
    • Raising $ in the current economic climate

    Gain more insight into the trajectory of the cannabis beverage market and save your free webinar spot!
