In this episode of The Dispensary Marketing Podcast, we break down why foot traffic is not the only metric cannabis retailers should be watching. If customers are still walking through the door but sales are slowing down, the issue may be hiding in your average order value, basket size, online ordering strategy, loyalty program, or customer retention system.
We explain how dispensaries can spot revenue leaks by looking beyond total sales and focusing on what happens after a customer arrives.
Getting more reviews is not always enough to rank your dispensary higher on Google.
In this episode, Brandon breaks down the three areas dispensaries need to focus on if they want better visibility in Google Maps and local search: an active Google Business Profile, consistent high-quality reviews, and local trust signals like citations and backlinks.
You’ll learn why outdated listings can hurt your rankings, how review quality and review velocity affect local SEO, and why Google needs to clearly understand your business before it can trust you.
Most dispensaries focus on driving more sales… but still wonder why there’s no profit left at the end of the month.
In this episode of the Dispensary Marketing Podcast, we break down the 3 profit levers every dispensary misses that are quietly draining your revenue without you realizing it.

Running a cannabis dispensary sounds like a dream: endless growth, passion for the plant, and the promise of big profits. But after working with dispensary owners across the country and hearing their stories firsthand, there’s a side to this industry that often gets overlooked.
It’s not all about the “green rush.” It’s about the cost, mental, physical, and financial, that comes with turning that dream into reality.
It’s 2025. Cannabis is bringing in more tax money than alcohol in some states. Over 440,000 jobs. $115+ Billion added to the US economy. Wall Street AND politicians are cashing in…but cannabis is STILL federally illegal. Why? Here are the real reasons no one talks about.
