How Can Cannabis Advocacy Groups Use Mobile Wallet Marketing Passes to Mobilize Their Members?

Wow, the timing could NOT BE BETTER for this podcast episode – Hazel & Kim are talking practical real world ways that cannabis advocacy groups can utilize mobile wallet marketing passes to communicate, engage and mobilize their member base.

There are a number of things that cannabis advocacy groups can do with mobile wallet marketing passes to help organize and mobilize their member base:

  • Push notifications to alert members to important information
  • Encourage members to attend meetings or fundraisers by including calls to RSVP, addresses that launch Maps, sending out time sensitive reminders, or helping members find their local voting places
  • Educate and inform members when new information is available or new developments have occurred locally, regionally or nationally
  • Send out a call to action when members NEED to take action in order to achieve organizational goals
  • Provide educational opportunities via the live links on the back of the passes – these might include podcast updates, blog updates, surveys, polls, new website releases, and new app releases
