— Cannabis Marketing —
Your business is legal. Advertise like it.
Google, Meta, and TikTok keep saying no. We build cannabis campaigns that actually reach buyers — on CTV, streaming audio, and cannabis-friendly premium inventory, with household-level targeting around your dispensaries and delivery zones.
- Cannabis-Cleared Premium Inventory
- State-by-State Compliance
- 100% US-Based Team
— The Problem —
Cannabis advertising is broken on purpose.
— Banned By Default —
Mainstream platforms don't want your money.
Google, Meta, TikTok, and most of the household ad networks restrict or outright ban cannabis advertisers — even in legal markets. Accounts get flagged, ads get pulled, and budgets sit idle while you fight support queues.
— Wasted On The Wrong Eyeballs —
Generic networks pretend they can serve you.
Some platforms quietly take cannabis dollars and run them on whatever's cheapest. You pay for impressions that never reach a legal-age buyer in a market you can actually sell into.
— State Lines Matter —
One bad geo-fence and you're out of compliance.
Cannabis advertising is regulated state by state — and license-area by license-area. Off-the-shelf campaigns don't respect that. We do.
— How We Reach Buyers —
Four channels built for cannabis.
— CTV & Streaming —
On the TV they're already watching.
Premium connected-TV and streaming inventory that accepts cannabis advertisers in your legal markets. Full-screen, sound-on, household-targeted — the format mainstream cable used to deliver, without the platform politics.
— Programmatic Display & Native —
On cannabis-friendly premium sites.
Display and native placements on premium publisher inventory cleared for cannabis. Geo-fenced to your license area, frequency-capped, and brand-safe. No incentivized clicks, no junk traffic.
— Streaming Audio —
In their ears on the drive home.
Podcast and streaming-audio placements that reach adult cannabis consumers in-market. Skippable-by-app-not-by-you — and measured against actual store visits, not vanity downloads.
— Household Geo-Targeting —
Around your dispensary and delivery zones.
Campaigns built around the households that can actually walk in or get delivery. We respect state-line rules, retail-radius limits, and the audience age gates your license requires.

— FAQ —
Cannabis marketing questions operators ask.
Cannabis advertising is regulated state-by-state in the US, and the rules differ by license type (dispensary, delivery, brand, lounge) and by inventory channel (CTV, audio, display, OOH). In legal-market states, advertising is permitted within those rules. We build every campaign to respect the state, the license, and the platform policies on the inventory side. We are not your legal counsel, but compliant execution is a baseline expectation of the work.
Mainstream consumer platforms classify cannabis as a restricted or prohibited category in most US markets, regardless of state legality. Workarounds (CBD-only landing pages, ambiguous creative, throwaway accounts) get flagged and banned. Trying to force cannabis through mainstream platforms is a treadmill. Our channel mix is built around inventory that accepts the category on purpose.
Connected TV and streaming on cannabis-cleared premium inventory, programmatic display and native on cannabis-friendly publisher inventory, streaming audio (podcasts and music), and household geo-targeted campaigns inside your legal trade area. Everything frequency-capped, brand-safe, and matched to your license footprint.
We target at the household and trade-area level — not by browsing individual users for cannabis interest, which is restricted on most premium inventory. Combine that with strict geo-fencing to license-permitted zones, demographic age gates where supported, and dayparting where states require it. The goal is reach inside the audience you can legally serve, measured at the aggregate level.
Store visits, delivery orders, brand search lift, and pacing-vs-plan at the placement level. Cannabis purchase journeys often don't end in a trackable ad click, so we report on the signals that actually move with media spend — trend, lift, and audience reach inside your trade area — alongside delivery transparency on where the money ran.
Depends on market count, channel mix, and whether you're driving foot traffic, delivery orders, or brand recall. CTV and streaming have minimums; geo-targeted display can start smaller. On the first call we'll scope the budget honestly — including when the answer is 'wait until you have more to spend.'
Both. Single-location dispensaries and small delivery services run alongside multi-state operators on the same channel stack. The plan scales — what changes is geographic scope and channel weight.
Because the channels and measurement model we use for the rest of our book fit cannabis cleanly — CTV, programmatic, audio, and trade-area measurement don't require the platforms that ban the category. And because operators in this space deserve a serious team, not whatever's left after the major networks said no.
