I am always looking for up-to-date ways to make the shopping experience fun for our shoppers; Before legalization of recreational pot smoking was passed, the store was particularly much savor a pharmacy, then our only shoppers needed cannabis products for their recovery, or to arrest the symptoms of their illnesses, then now everything has changed, plus although all of us still help out the folks who need medical cannabis, most of our sales come from recreational shoppers.
Before I didn’t need to have sales or special discounts, because it was strictly medical cannabis, however now I have to compete with the other dispensaries! My first thought was to have a smokers lounge, however the state laws prohibit smoking cannabis indoors! It wouldn’t make much sense to have a smokers lounge if the people can’t smoke cannabis there, would it? Instead I decided to have a sizable weekend long sale, plus the cannabis dispensary parking lot would be filled with food trucks plus a small period for live songs, then all of us still can’t allow cannabis smoking, because of the laws, however I think this is a wonderful way to attract attention to our little store.
It’s the middle of summer, plus so most people will come inside the cannabis dispensary, if only for the a/c! This event isn’t just about generating some extra sales (which would be nice) it’s about raising the visibility of our cannabis dispensary! This is area of a long campaign to boost cannabis sales, so I have to be patient, however rome wasn’t built in a morning, after all, plus neither is a cannabis business.
