You’re spending real money on ads. You fight hard for every new customer. Then they walk out the door and don’t come back.
Picking the right cannabis marketing partner is one of the most important decisions you’ll make. JointCommerce is a well-known cannabis consumer data and digital advertising technology platform built around programmatic display, connected TV, and audience retargeting. Seedless Media is the full-service growth agency built for dispensaries and cannabis brands that want to win on every channel, not just paid media.
Here’s how they compare.
What Seedless Media Actually Does
Seedless Media is a dispensary e-commerce growth agency based in Tempe, AZ, specializing in driving online sales through machine-learning advertising software, cannabis search engine marketing, and a full stack of retention-focused services. We work with dispensaries, cannabis brands, and CBD e-commerce companies of all sizes across North America.
Our core services:
Search Engine Optimization (SEO): When a customer searches “dispensary near me,” your site needs to appear before Weedmaps does. Our cannabis SEO strategy covers both local and national rankings, is technically sound, content-driven, and built to convert.
PPC & Google Ads: Google Ads for cannabis is complicated. Policies shift, compliance requirements vary by product type, and one misstep can pull your campaign. Our team stays current with Google Ads’ cannabis policy and manages the process so your campaigns remain live and effective.
Programmatic Display Advertising: We run cannabis display advertising campaigns across 200,000+ mainstream websites and apps, reaching audiences on the Weather Channel, USA Today, CBS News, Barstool Sports, BuzzFeed, and more.
Geo-Targeting: Our dispensary geo-targeting campaigns serve your ads on the phones of people who are physically visiting your competitors. From their door to yours.
Email Marketing From automated flows to promotional newsletters and long-term list management, our cannabis email marketing keeps your dispensary top of mind and turns subscribers into repeat buyers.
Text Message Marketing: Our cannabis SMS marketing campaigns are fully 10DLC-compliant, built to improve customer loyalty and create a consistent experience without getting your number blocked by carriers.
Website Development: Your website is your highest-converting sales tool. We build custom cannabis website development projects designed to rank in search and turn visitors into buyers.
Seedless vs. JointCommerce: The Core Difference
JointCommerce is a capable ad tech platform. If you have the time and knowledge to create your own digital retargeting campaign from start to finish. If you need a self-service dashboard to manage display campaigns at scale, it does that well.
But cannabis marketing doesn’t start and end with paid media. If you want to grow revenue across search, email, SMS, ads, and your website with a partner who manages everything for you and treats your brand like a priority, you need Seedless Media.
SEO: The Channel JointCommerce Doesn’t Cover
JointCommerce is built entirely around paid advertising technology. Seedless Media is built to earn traffic, too. Our cannabis SEO strategy captures high-intent searches like “dispensary near me” before your competitors register that the user is even looking, and outranks directories like Weedmaps in local results.
Paid campaigns stop the moment you pause your budget. Organic rankings keep working around the clock.
Google Ads: Compliance Without the Headache
Google Ads for cannabis and CBD remains a compliance minefield. Platform policies shift, product-level rules vary, and automated systems can pull campaigns without warning. Seedless Media takes a hands-on approach, managing certifications, monitoring Google Ads policy updates, and pivoting your budget the moment rules change.
Email and SMS: Where Retention Lives
JointCommerce focuses on retargeting and cart abandonment through paid ad placements. Seedless Media goes further with personalized cannabis email marketing, automated flows, targeted promotions, and list management designed to land in the inbox and drive real repeat purchase behavior. Pair that with 10DLC-compliant SMS marketing and you have a retention engine that compounds over time without relying entirely on ad spend.
