ASCEND CANNABIS RETAIL ACTIVATIONS
The cannabis retail category is a rapidly developing retail space that requires understanding the unique challenges selling their product lines along with new insights into ways to increase brand visibility in this retail channel. Working with Ascend on their retail fixturing provided an opportunity to rethink how consumers like to shop no matter their experience level. This was also a subject of my INSEAD digital marketing education and used it as an opportunity to better understand their business while identifying new retail opportunities.
