Puff, Puff, Pass… Your Business Cards: Why This Awesome Cannabis App Will Be Your Next Business Essential

We are all familiar with the benefits that mobile apps can provide to us, as consumers in the on-demand era because we all want it when we want it right? 

But as a business owner, a small or medium-sized cannabis business, what can mobile applications do for you and your business?

Blogs and Articles: Knowledge at Their Fingertips

As the saying goes, knowledge is power. The ability to have your customers informed about the goings on in the cannabis industry, its benefits and the latest breakthroughs in research is a daunting task. However, a mobile application with the ability to consolidate all of these with an integrated blog section can help you, as a business owner, stay ahead of the curve because you will be providing easy access to a wealth of information.

Imagine having a billboard up on a very busy highway, only instead of driving, you are influencing potential customers from the comfort of wherever they might be. Having the captured market through the users of a mobile application platform will give you just that- the eyeballs you need to push your product subtly. 

From how-to guides and product reviews with industry leaders and scientific research, your blogs will be able to cater to a wide range of interests. Whether your reader (and customer) is a seasoned cannabis connoisseur or a curious newcomer, it is essential that your friendly and conversational articles will make learning about cannabis a fun experience.

It’s a definite plus for your brand or store to be known as a positive contributor to the cannabis community and influence your potential customers to patronize your products with an add-to-cart functionality right on the blog or article to drive sales.

Push Notifications: Never Miss A Beat

In an ever-evolving world, staying on top of the latest news is crucial for every cannabis beginner or enthusiast. Push notifications are a godsend for those who want to stay in the loop about the newest strains, sales and events without being glued to a screen. As a business owner, imagine the mass dissemination of information about a limited-time offer on a strain that you would like to introduce. Those on the app, will be able to quickly place an order in time before it sells out.

Push notifications can also come in handy for the medical marijuana market which requires timely reminders to take their prescribed dosage. Apps help users stay on track with their treatment plans (if any) and avoid potential hiccups in their cannabis journey. 

In a world where there is always something vying for your customer’s attention, push notifications to serve as a gentle nudge for your customers (current and potential) to prioritize their cannabis needs.

Being top of mind, won’t hurt your business either.

Product Recommendations: Your Personal Budtender

For a potential customer, navigating the world of cannabis can be overwhelming given the plethora of stores, strains, products and consumption methods available. Enter the power of product recommendation. 

An integrated app to your cannabis website can act as a personal budtender by providing customized recommendations based on your customer’s preferences and needs. So it’s really taking the in-store experience and having that readily available to your customers at the touch of their fingertips.

Whether your customers are seeking soothing relief, looking to unwind after a long day or searching for a creative boost, an app will guide them towards the most suitable products through blog posts or articles that will definitely highlight your products and what they have to offer.

User Database: A Community of Like-Minded Individuals

One of the most significant benefits of a mobile application for your cannabis store is the sense of community you will be able to foster. With the user database of the app, you will be able to connect with fellow cannabis enthusiasts (your customers), share experiences and exchange tips and tricks.

Of course, being a business owner, this is a double benefit because you instantly have the resource through the database to solicit product reviews and recommendations. By tapping into the collective knowledge of the experience of this online community, feedback and real-time experiences may be shared among other customers on the platform and also between you and your customers.
