THE CHALLENGE

The cannabis industry faces unique marketing challenges with severely limited advertising options across major platforms. While most dispensaries struggle with customer acquisition due to these restrictions, Rebel Cannabis needed a strategic approach to build sustainable growth through the channels that remained available.
