CBD and hemp ecommerce marketing

Ads and growth for the US cannabis market.

We have run Google Ads on this market's own keywords for StandardCBD and Terplandia, and we build the search and email that grow beside them.

The accounts we have run

Google Ads, run in this market.

Two accounts on the market's own keywords, with search and email built beside them.

Terplandia
$20 a day

Two to three calls a day from genuine buyers, on terpene keywords.

StandardCBD
CBD keywords

Campaigns for a family-owned shop selling hemp gummies, tinctures and capsules.

Beside the ads
Search and email

Organic demand and repeat purchase grow alongside, so one account never carries the business.

The store
Built to last

Claims, age gates, and payment constraints shape the build.

About Cannabis-adjacent growth

Legal products can still be rejected by advertising platforms, payment providers, marketplaces, and carriers. A generic growth plan learns those constraints on your budget.

We run paid search on the keywords your buyers use, as we did for StandardCBD and Terplandia, and build what grows beside it: useful search content, resilient ecommerce, email flows and compliant product communication.

What should improve
  • Paid search that brings buyers, with organic acquisition growing beside it
  • A more resilient store and retention system
  • Clearer claims, product structure, and customer education
Scope

What ships.

  • Google Ads campaigns on CBD, hemp and terpene keywords
  • Search content, commercial and educational, with claims reviewed carefully
  • WooCommerce or Shopify improvements and custom tooling
  • Email retention flows and repeat-purchase analysis
  • Age gates, structured data, and compliance-aware page patterns
What it costs

Cannabis-adjacent retainers are typically $2,500 to $5,000 per month. Scope is broader because the ads, the search work and the store are run together.

Not the right fit

We work with federally legal hemp-derived products and adjacent businesses, not plant-touching operations outside the required licensing lane. Marketing guidance is not legal advice; claims and jurisdiction questions belong with qualified counsel.

Process

How it runs.

  1. Map the legal and platform lane

    We document the actual product category, markets, claims, processor, and channel constraints with your legal guidance where needed.

  2. Run the ads and build beside them

    Paid search goes live on the market's keywords while search content, store architecture, education and retention flows are built to grow next to it.

  3. Measure resilience

    Acquisition mix, repeat purchase, deliverability, and conversion evidence guide what expands next.

Before we talk

Fair questions.

Can you run Google Ads for a CBD or hemp brand?

Yes. We have run them on these keywords for StandardCBD and Terplandia. We do not cloak pages or rotate domains to do it, and we build search and email beside the ads so the business never depends on one account.

Do you work with THC products?

We work with federally legal hemp-derived products and adjacent operators. State-licensed, plant-touching businesses require a different legal and operational framework and are assessed separately.

Can you review our compliance?

We can implement compliance-aware marketing patterns and flag risky claims or channel conflicts, but we are not a law firm. Final legal interpretation should come from qualified counsel for the markets you serve.

Start a conversation

Tell us where it is stuck.

A short note is enough. We will tell you whether cannabis-adjacent growth looks like the right move, and if it does not, what we would do first. We reply the same working day, Monday to Friday.

Prefer to talk first? Book a 30-minute fit call. Thirty minutes on Google Meet, Monday to Friday, to find out whether we are the right shop for the job. No deck, no pitch.

We'll only use this to reply and to send the occasional update. No rented lists, easy out.
