Selling Your Cannabis

If your product is marijuana, there are probably only a few ways to sell it.

Marijuana is relatively easy to grow, so everybody has it. People in states where marijuana is legal got used to the idea that they could easily buy marijuana rather than grow it themselves. So, if marijuana is your product, you have to persuade them not to buy it.

You have two main ways to do this. You can convince people that your product is better or their product is worse.

It’s easier to do the latter. If all you can do is tell people your product is healthier and safer, it’s up to you to make your case.

Unless your product is a drug or alcoholic product, where people are already afraid of the side effects, you will have to convince them that your product is better.

The question is how to do that.

There are two obvious ways to show people your product is better: first, you can show them that other people like it, and second, you can show them that it’s less harmful.

The first option, showing other people like your product, is, of course, not an option if you’re trying to sell marijuana. But there is another possibility. Suppose you can convince people that your product is less harmful. For instance, maybe it’s harmless or has none of the harmful effects its rival has.

Cannabis marketing has been all over the news lately. Interest in the plant has been growing, and the trend shows no sign of slowing down.

Still, there are problems with cannabis, and it’s hard to make a product that will satisfy all the people who want one.

But it is possible to make a product that will satisfy most people. And if you can’t satisfy everyone, at least you can satisfy most people.

There are two parts to making a product that will satisfy most people. The first is getting the product right. The second is presenting it to customers in the right way.

Most of the marketing mistakes people make are the result of making the first part wrong. If you make your product right, it’s much more likely that people will want to buy it. If you make the first part wrong, it doesn’t matter how good your product is; nobody will buy it.

With cannabis, the first step is to develop a product that makes people feel good. If you’re selling a recreational drug, you’ll want a product that makes you feel relaxed. If you’re selling medicine, you’ll want a product that makes you feel better.

The second thing is to be aware of the risks. Marijuana is illegal in many places, and it’s hard to get away with anything involving it. But it’s also not particularly dangerous, and the drug’s long-term risks are relatively small. With careful marketing, you can convince people that it is worth trying.

Conclusion

Selling marijuana is like an arms race. You compete with other growers, sellers, dispensaries, delivery services, and local governments.

You can’t sell marijuana the way you sell apples. You can’t just post a sign. Instead, you have to persuade customers to believe they will experience specific beneficial outcomes. You can’t just show them pictures of marijuana. You need to show them pictures of people in happy circumstances under the influence of marijuana.

You have to convince regulators that marijuana is harmless. Marijuana’s reputation is so bad that many people assume the government wants to keep people from getting high. Customers, suppliers, and regulators all want to regulate marijuana the way we do alcohol, cigarettes, or prescription drugs.

Marijuana isn’t like any of these things. Selling marijuana is more complex than selling any of those other things. Selling marijuana is a highly competitive, risky business. Still, following the tips we listed here will teach you what you need to sell more of your cannabis.
