About the Client

Curaleaf is a cannabinoid company dedicated to providing quality health and wellness products. For over a decade, they have focused on cultivating the cleanest, purest strains of cannabis from hand-grown plants. This commitment ensures both their plants and customers are happy and healthy.

Background

As Curaleaf expanded into new states and opened additional dispensaries, they needed a digital strategy that could quickly build local visibility, support e-commerce growth, and prove ROI at scale. However, strict advertising regulations, evolving compliance requirements, and uncertainty across the cannabis industry made it difficult to gain traction through traditional channels, requiring a more strategic, search-driven approach to reach and convert customers.

We also built 657 backlinks, strengthening brand authority across search. These gains led to an 18% increase in organic transactions, supporting Curaleaf’s goals of stronger local SEO, faster ROI, and more e-commerce growth in new markets.
