Target, Segment, & Position

Targeting, segmentation, and positioning are the components of delivering personalized messages that are more relevant to the target audience. You do not just publish content at whim but follow a methodical process so that content resonates with target buyers. Our team does the following to guarantee the success of this component:

We identify the best target audience for the product by creating buyer personas and conducting market research. If the products are already on the market, we can interview the current market to determine their thoughts about your product. Then, we target a segment of the buyers most likely to buy from you through various qualification features.

After identifying the most probable target market, we then position the product in the market relative to other brands. In this case, we determine what you do better than the competition and capitalize on it when creating and executing the strategic marketing plan.

Competitive Analysis

Knowing what the competition is doing is vital to creating an effective marketing strategy. Otherwise, the competition will likely outwit you into attracting your target audience to buy their goods and services. Besides, you will not be able to differentiate yourself from the competition. Therefore, the intended audience may buy from the competition.

Our team evaluates the market for you to determine who the main competitors are, what they sell, and how their products differ from what you are selling. This helps in differentiating your products, promotions, and pricing. We also monitor and anticipate their movements in the marketplace to help formulate your counterstrategies.

IDENTIFYING YOUR CANNABIS MARKETING STRATEGY’S TARGET AUDIENCE

Cannabis Audiences are divided into the following 4 categories

01

Cultivation Product & Services

Cultivation Products and services could be things such as fertigation, irrigation, nutrients, facility design, greenhouse components, and lighting.

02

Processing, Packaging,  & Lab Services

Processing, packaging, and lab services require highly qualified companies to help you prepare products ready to sell. Some examples such as distillation, extraction, flavors, automation, packaging or testing, and lab equipment would be examples of processing, packaging, and lab services.

Top brands, high-THC flowers, infused products, CBD, and paraphernalia, must be carefully marketed for the retail industry.

04

Business Services

Critical products and services for all aspects of the cannabis business, including cannabis-specific point of sale and inventory control software, the latest technology, security, HR and staffing, marketing, consulting, banking, private equity and investing, accounting, real estate, insurance, government and industry associations are things that would be considered business service.
