Solution
A team of 40 in-house trained Brand Ambassadors in 3 provinces and 13 territories activated pop-ups in up to 52 different retail cannabis stores every single weekend. Detailed records were kept of foot traffic, customer interactions, product requests, brand sale data, and new ideas for innovating future products. The Brand Ambassadors were hand-picked based on their strength and ability to connect with consumers to make thoughtful and appropriate recommendations for purchase. Additional support was also offered to retailers through added sales force and support for customers, data collection from activations, and assurances when bringing in new products.
