Top Cannabis Social Business Networks of 2022
What Is A Cannabis Social Business Network?
A cannabis business network is a social network that allows dispensaries, distributors, growers, and cannabis marketers to interact with each other. Inside a cannabis business network, you’ll find the most up-to-date information on the industry, along with the ability to communicate and collaborate with other entities involved in the industry.
This can be an extremely useful tool for new and existing cannabis companies to grow and learn more about the industry they operate in. Below you will find a list of the most prevalent cannabis business networks of 2022.
Mjlink
Mjlink is the premier cannabis business social network. Focusing more on the B2B side of engagement, the platform is host to thousands of cannabis entrepreneurs both large and small.
Acting as the parent company of weedlife, Mjlink takes its status literally. The content on the website is much more mature, covering topics on the progress of legalization throughout the US, important trends in retail, and new emerging technologies surrounding the cultivation, sale, and consumption of cannabis.
Perhaps the most valuable resource on the site, the Mjlink business directory provides entrepreneurs with an extensive list of companies operating in the marijuana industry. Advertising agencies, website builders, operational specialists, growers, dispensaries, and more all present themselves as potential contacts on Mjlink.
If you’re someone who is looking to get started in the cannabis industry or even an ingrained veteran, Mjlink provides a community of like-minded individuals that want to help your cannabis business grow.
Weedlife
Affectionately nicknamed “the cannabis Facebook” WeedLife operates as a full-scale social and business network for those interested in cannabis or the cannabis industry. It is widely regarded as the most popular cannabis business social network, and for good reasons.
Featuring a constantly updating feed, WeedLife provides users with any and all information related to cannabis. Whether it’s news on regulations, how-to guides, or conversations on different types of cannabis, WeedLife has got it.
As the child organization of Mjlink, Weedlife provides a more laid-back and relaxed environment for individuals to discuss whatever they want around marijuana. If Mjlink is the older brother working in finance, Weedlife is the younger sibling, alot more fun, but not who you would talk to if you are serious about starting a business. I would recommend having an account on both sites, as they are pretty much interlinked.
Grasscity Forums
As the oldest existing forum directly about the growing and consumption of marijuana, Grasscity stands as an extremely useful tool to understand the true culture behind cannabis. Although originally a taboo subject, the cultivation and sale of marijuana have been widely embraced by the general population. Because of this, Grasscity Forums has become a place not only for information but making connections with budding entrepreneurs.
Additionally, if you are someone who deals in the manufacturing and/or selling of marijuana paraphernalia, you can list your products directly for sale on the website. This provides you with a fantastic sales funnel, as all the traffic coming through Grasscity is interested in the consumption of cannabis.
Cannabis Business Social Network
A new up-and-comer in the space is a website simply named “Cannabis Business Social Network”. Although I believe that the name they chose was purely based on an SEO decision, that does not discount the potential value of the site. The site appears to mainly be a place for cannabis organizations to promote and host events around cannabis, hemp, and CBD.
However, it is worth noting that there are very few organizations that are actually utilizing this platform. Out of the six companies that have hosted events through Cannabis Business Social Network one is “Ignite”, Dan Blizerians semi-famous CBD company known for its shaky financial ground and questionable products. Even though this website is first in search results when googling “Cannabis Business Social Network” it is not the best option in my professional opinion.
Just another example of how less than reputable companies have been able to manipulate SEO and Google and push their way to the top of the SERPs.
In Conclusion
The best cannabis business social network is mjlink. Providing users with access to hundreds of reputable organizations, events, and news around the cannabis industry. Weedlife and Grasscity Forums are also invaluable tools for connecting with the community, building relationships, understanding the culture, and picking up on new trends in the space. I would also consider joining “Cannabis Business Social Network” if only to just cover all my bases. I do not consider them a premier source like I do with mjlink, but time could change the platform as more reputable business join and begin to host events.
