On August 20th, the Brand Joint team attended the B.U.D. Summit in D.C., a cannabis conference and exhibition open to cannabis entrepreneurs, activists and enthusiasts. The Business, Understanding, & Development Summit (B.U.D Summit) formed as an effort to facilitate business innovation and education for the cannabis industry on the East Coast. Along with multiple vendors and booths, the Summit offered professional insight from an array of speakers to the opportunities and progress in cannabusiness, science, medicine and technology.
Also known as the "Forgotten Generation" or the "Middle Child" between Millennials and Boomers, the Gen Xers are often left on the back-burner while companies rush to reach the very impressionable Millennials and money-spending Baby Boomers. However, as these 35-49 year olds now control the highest spending power, it's wise to think about their buying habits and behavior to most efficiently market your brand.
When you think of a Millennial, you might imagine a 21-year-old college student that takes a lot of selfies and uses far too many emojis. While that persona certainly falls under the category, Millennials are actually as old as 36. Although the twenty-something stoner culture is still alive and kickin', when targeting towards the Millennial group, you must also consider professionals and parents that belong in the age range.
In our upcoming series of blogs, we'll focus on each generation, exploring general core values, views of cannabis, pain points, and buying habits. Starting with segmenting by generation, then creating personas to enable a deeper understanding and empathy, your cannabusiness can better communicate your message and products successfully.
Instagram is a free tool to visually express your brand and its core values. By proactively making your social media posts true to your brand, highlighting what you do (or sell) and the experience you're promoting, you can distance yourself from the stoner stigma. In return, the industry as a whole will be viewed more positively.
