With the legalization of recreational cannabis in Canada soon about to celebrate its first anniversary on October 17, 2019, businesses all across the country have been involved in profiting from that non-ordinary type of weed that Canadians are busy planting in their gardens.
According to stats shared by Fit Small Business, predominant percent of cannabis users are likely to spend between $25 and $50 each time they shop at a marijuana retail store.
Being one of the most profitable and still not overly populated business niches, Canadian garden center owners are progressively into selling marijuana seeds with a mind to bathing in high paybacks for years to come.
Below are 5 little-known ways that can help garden center commerce in Canada make the most from what selling cannabis seeds have to offer for their best business’ sake.
1. Boosting cannabis-friendly fertilizers’ sales.
A garden center is one of the most logical places where cannabis growers would stop by and shop for high-quality marijuana seeds. But apart from partnering with reliable wholesale cannabis seeds retailers, garden center owners can greatly boost marijuana seeds-related profit by recommending suitable fertilizers for the pot grow operation enthusiasts who are eager to watch their green ladies thrive.
Cannabis plants fall into the category of crops that can reward growers with massive yields provided a proper nutrient feeding routine is established. And so, you can bet that no grower out there would prefer to save some cash and skip on fertilizers, especially in the case he/she is being introduced to the idea of fertilizers’ almost miraculous properties on boosting the quantity and quality of harvest by your well-trained staff.
Every pack of cannabis seeds sold should be looked upon as a wonderful opportunity to sell a whole range of marijuana grow products alongside, which brings us to point #2 in this list.
2. Increasing profit from selling containers suitable for cannabis cultivation.
Certainly, cannabis can be grown in just about any average container made out of plastic or fabric. However, keeping in mind that the health of cannabis plants’ roots is intricately related to the plant material growers rejoice at upon harvesting, healthy marijuana plants roots = fantastic yields that can exceed the average yields with some good 30% or so.
When selling cannabis seeds, make sure to kindly ask your garden center customers whether or not they are aware of the benefits of high-quality containers that can bring their marijuana cultivation journey to the next level. Do not intrude, but simply ask them if they have tried growing cannabis in smart pots ever before, and if not, explain to them the amazing benefits they can reap.
Even if a grower restrains from purchasing a suitable container for cannabis cultivation from your garden store at this point of his/her marijuana grow journey, the pleasurable shopping experience is sure to leave a deep emotional imprint that can turn out to be the exact spark to drive the customer back to your garden store again and again.
3. Tapping into a whole new business segment.
The cannabis industry in Canada has created business opportunities that most of us could barely even imagine as possible some mere years ago. So, why not take the best advantage by tapping into a whole new business segment to boost your garden center business performance significantly not only in the short run but also in the long run?
Most importantly, as the science and advances of all things cannabis-related keep expanding and evolving, so will the marijuana gardening know-how, and nonetheless, the availability, accessibility, and diversity of a broad range of products, tools, and devices designed to make at-home cannabis cultivation, regardless of whether it comes to indoor or outdoor growing, better and easier. This means that once you start expanding your list of cannabis-friendly customers, it is bound to keep growing in the following years!
4. Expanding your garden center’s appeal to a broader range of customers.
Unfortunately, a number of business owners in Canada remain victims of the ugly cannabis stigma. Instead of considering the incredible benefits of widening their list of happy customers by expanding their business outreach towards a much broader audience they never had the ability to profit from ever before the Cannabis Act coming into force, they restrain from making the most of what marijuana-related sales have to offer simply because of fear of the unknown.
But as they say, old ways do not open new doors.
The following decade is to be greatly marked with mankind’s quest for sustainability, environmental-friendly solutions, and restoring the ancient relationship and balance between humans and the living nature. With this in mind, the marijuana stigma will only keep on fading until it completely vanishes.
Did you know that the baby boomers generation is now increasingly into treating their concerns with cannabis rather than opting for synthetic, non-natural medications? Then how about the generational cultural shift on cannabis acceptance, accentuating on millennials, as well as the Z-generation, being passionate marijuana enthusiasts?
Expanding your garden center’s business outreach by making it more appealing to a broader range of customers thanks to having cannabis seeds, as well as multiple cannabis grow-appropriate tools and devices available for sale, is a smart and earnest way to profit by increasing your business’ audience and boosting business performance.
5. Turning new and/or random customers into loyal ones.
