Advertising is essential to develop a solid base of clients for cannabis products, and it needs to be well put together in order to convince consumers that it is beneficial and safe to use. 
For marketing, it is very important to check your country's regulations since it might be illegal to market products even where selling is allowed. Be extra careful if you sell online since many states and countries around the world still prohibit the use and sale of marijuana. 

Educate Prospective Customers 
These days, marijuana enjoys a much better reputation than it did several years ago when it was classified in many places as a harmful drug.

Negative associations and lack of exposure might keep potential customers away if you don't provide them with the right information to help them be better informed. 

This process will require continuous effort from you to create educational presentations, commercials, videos, and events that will make your products more familiar to consumers and to convince them that they do not need to be avoided.
