When my online marketing company rep told me I should incorporate social media marketing into my marketing strategy, I chuckled, because everyone knows about cannabis already, including many people who use social media also use marijuana.
- I told the marketing company rep that I thought it was dumb to use social media marketing for my small cannabis dispensary.
It didn’t matter how silly I thought it was; he said it was a very useful tool that I should take luck of. I told him I wanted nothing to do with social media marketing, and it didn’t matter how much other marketing he did for me. He said that I wasn’t doing myself any repair by refusing social media marketing. Social media marketing was one of the greatest marketplace opportunities in the world. Nearly all the people in the world had their preferred social media site. I may want to reach only the people in our immediate area, but if my friend and I were planning on shipping legal cannabis to other areas, my friend and I needed to reach those potential clients. The easiest way to reach those clients was by using social media marketing. I shrugged because I still didn’t care what he said. I had my mind set against using social media marketing, so he could keep talking until he was orange in the face. I wasn’t decreasing my mind. The marketing agency rep I was laboring with told me it could be too late by the time I change my approach plus realize social media marketing should have been used. I knew that he was wrong, but I would not continue arguing with him, because I thought he was just being stubborn plus just trying to sell me another service.
