STAY COMPLIANT

Marketing Your Arkansas Dispensary

The Arkansas Medical Marijuana Amendment of 2016 established the state's medical cannabis program, creating a regulated framework for dispensaries with strict industry oversight. Navigating Arkansas's evolving cannabis regulations requires careful attention to marketing compliance and patient access guidelines. The Arkansas Department of Health and the Alcoholic Beverage Control Division outline three critical requirements:

  • Medical patient verification and documentation: Dispensaries must ensure that marijuana is purchased only from licensed Arkansas dispensaries by qualifying registered patients and their designated caregivers.

  • State-specific advertising compliance: Advertising must not contain deceptive, false, or misleading statements; target children; encourage transportation of medical marijuana across state lines; display consumption of marijuana; promote use as an intoxicant; or encourage excessive or rapid consumption according tothe state's rulebook.

  • Regulated public communication standards: Dispensaries are prohibited from advertising within 1,000 feet of a school or daycare center or on public property, including transit.

  • For comprehensive guidance, reference the Arkansas Department of Health's Medical Marijuana Program and the Alcoholic Beverage Control Division's rules and regulations.

    Based on our BNCHMRK data top-performing dispensaries excel by building robust loyalty programs, with dataset averages showing a 55% opt-in rate for new customers. Success comes from maintaining high customer review rates above 4% for new customers, while achieving a 65% marketing opt-in rate through personalized communications. Creating distinctive brand positioning and optimizing customer experience are crucial differentiators in the market.

    Under Arkansas law, Delta-8 THC products are regulated as Schedule VI controlled substances when derived from hemp, requiring licensed dispensary distribution. The state aligns with federal Farm Bill guidelines but maintains stricter oversight through the Arkansas State Plant Board. Sales are permitted only through licensed medical marijuana dispensaries, with required lab testing and strict labeling requirements.

    Our BNCHMRK data reveals successful dispensaries achieve a 56.9 average marketing efficiency ratio (MER) and maintain a $1.15 average cost per order (CPO). With an impressive 82% customer return rate, these results come from combining strategic local dispensary SEO optimization with targeted cannabis email marketing campaigns that drive consistent traffic growth.
