4/20 is the most notable day on the cannabis calendar, which makes it one of the most lucrative days for cannabis dispensaries. As a cannabis retailer, sales and customers acquired on that day can carry you through the rest of the year. Because of this, making sure your dispensary performs well on 4/20 is crucial.
This year, springbig retailers sent over 12 million text messages on 4/20 alone -- that’s a 200% increase over our usual daily average of about 4 million. Altogether, these SMS marketing campaigns boasted some impressive stats, but how did it pay off for dispensaries using springbig?
Between all 12 million texts sent by springbig retailers, a total of $37,777,675 was spent as a result of the promotions.
